May 1, 2012

The band Aeroplane Pageant and novelist, musician and Rumpus contributor Rick Moody have collaborated on a new version of a song from the band’s recent album, Float Above the Yard. Moody’s remix of the song “Big Little Wolfs” is ambient and drifting without being lulling, a place (near the docks) as much as a song. Have a listen here.

The song is also set to appear on Occupy This Album, which benefits OWS and also features music by Yo La Tengo, Mogwai, Devo, Blondie, Michael Moore (!), Patti Smith, Ladytron, Yoko Ono, Willie Nelson, Jackson Browne, Crosby and Nash, and others.

Thanks for posting this. This remix is haunting, and sounds extremely fresh compared to all the other indie stuff out there that’s so pop-driven nowadays. I think what I find most interesting about this track is the loose spatial aspect that provides for an interesting off-kilter experience as if time no longer existed. And what the heck are all those noises?! The lyrical imagery is so strange too. Great stuff.

Thanks again, Jeff!
Always enjoy your postings!
