The year is 2000. After only ten years performing and recording, the Austrian group Naked Lunch had reached the end of the line. They had experienced a meteoric rise throughout the 1990s: less than four years had seen the group move from a mold-infested rehearsal room in an Austrian town to a five-star hotel on Times Square. Imagine endless tours, outrageously expensive recordings in studios from Bochum to New York, an extended stay in London and collapsed major-label deals – imagine, essentially, what the band themselves called “an utterly pointless burning through money”. Eventually, the group returned to their hometown. What remained were mostly disillusioning experiences in the pop business and a huge amount of debt.

Most of us would probably have thrown in the towel at that point. Alas, these men did not. Having grown into a quartet, the band decided to hit the reset button and start over. Together with producer and friend Olaf Opal (including work with The Notwist, International Music, etc.), they barricaded themselves for almost three years in the newly built studio of bassist Herwig Zamernik to work on an album that would eventually be released in 2004 under the name 'SONGS FOR THE EXHAUSTED'.

“The recordings were shameless, insanely intense, exhausting, and at times even disturbing. At the same time, all that long work was also somewhat cleansing and rewarding. Rewarding in the sense that they allowed us to return to a ‘to hell with what others think’ attitude. We were able to create freely again. That’s how this record emerged, and for us it meant a new beginning, a turning point – or rather a kind of rebirth.” (Oliver Welter)

'SONGS FOR THE EXHAUSTED' became not only a milestone in the band’s career. It was also, in a way, a farewell to an unrestrained era and an admission of the exhaustion that resulted from it. The album certainly isn’t easy fare. The record is dark, at times even obstructive. Yet it has the ability to embrace us and, as Anja Plaschg alias Soap&Skin once put it, “to comfort us in feverish nights.” 'SONGS FOR THE EXHAUSTED' was – and remains even today – “a masterpiece once thought impossible!” (Austria’s Der Standard, 2004)

Twelve years after their last critically acclaimed album All Is Fever (2013), Naked Lunch return with their new record Lights And A Slight Taste Of Death. And they’re doing so not only with style- and genre-defining albums like Songs For The Exhausted (2004) or This Atom Heart Of Ours (2007) — the latter earning them an Amadeus Award in their Austrian homeland — but also with countless high-energy live performances under their belt. And now, following lineup changes and internal reshuffles, comes this — one might almost say — outrageous record, on which, as seems to be the case with every Naked Lunch release, everything is once again at stake. Lights And A Slight Taste Of Death is a 14-track tour de force; demanding and harsh, yet tender and embracing. It's an intimate self-examination, spanning grand ballads to sweeping, sky-storming pop.

Naked Raygun were an extraordinary staple in the Chicago music scene—beginning in the early 80s and continuing until their quiet demise in the early 90s. Their music showed the world that punk rockers could play and be really good at it. Founded in Chicago in 1980 by Marco Pezzati, Jeff Pezzati, and Santiago Durango, Naked Raygun released six albums during their eleven-year career that would change the sound of punk rock indefinitely. The band is widely recognized as being one of the most influential punk bands of the 80s. Their anthemic style incorporated politics in a uniquely accessible way, melding pop and hardcore into one cohesive sound that would later be dubbed "The Chicago Sound."

Shortly after their first release, 'Basement Screams', Durango left to join Big Black permanently and was replaced by John Haggerty, whose unique style of buzzsaw guitar would define Raygun's sound for their next four albums. Additionally, Pierre Kezdy replaced Camilo Gonzalez, and Eric Spicer took over drums for Jim Colao. In 1990, Haggerty left the band to start Pegboy. Bill Stephens joined the band for their final studio release entitled 'Raygun...Naked Raygun'.

Legendary New York artist and The Daou front-woman Vanessa Daou lends vocals to Matt Edwards and Joel Martin's second release on their The Quiet Village imprint.

'Naked Hunger', which comes in 'Vocal Mix' and 'Spoken Word Mix' versions, sees Quiet Village employ their hypnotic sensibilities to one of house music's most tantalising vocal talents in Daou, resulting in a mid-tempo house cut that completely envelops.

While the vocal mix of 'Naked Hunger' leans into the interplay between Vanessa Daou's cosseting song voice and spoken vocals, with the rest of the track embracing a subtly dubby ethereal musicality, Quiet Village ramp up the instrumentation on the' Spoken Vocal' version with bass guitar and piano flourishes accompanying her sultry poetic delivery.

Though Daou's first collaboration with Quiet Village, throughout her illustrious career, the acclaimed three-time #1 Billboard Dance Chart topper has collaborated with Danny Tenaglia, David Morales, Mood II Swing, Ralphi Rosario, Terry Farley (Farley & Heller), Charles Webster, Horse Meat Disco's Severino Panzetta, Hifi Sean, and Eli Escobar.

Friends since meeting at Goldie's legendary MetalHeadz sessions at London's Blue Note in the '90s, Quiet Village, aka Matt Edwards and Joel Martin, began releasing their brand of dubbed-out, Balearic-and-beyond tracks in 2005 via NYC's Whatever We Want Records. The duo's 2008 'Silent Movie' LP was a critical smash hit that resulted in remix commissions for the likes of Bryan Ferry, The Gorillas, Leftfield, Francois K, Massive Attack and many more. After a few years in the wilderness, unable to use their nom de plume due to contractual restrictions, the pair launched The Quiet Village label in 2024 with 'Reunion', a stunning 6/8-time urban jazz odyssey, a favourite of the likes of Luke Una, Gilles Peterson and Ryan Elliott. 

"Naked Hunger" looks to futher cement the leftfield Balearic legends credentials as they stride confidently into the deep house sphere. 

STAFF COMMENTS

Matt says: Fathoms deep and ultimately, very seductive; the pairing of Matt Edwards, Joel Martin and Vanessa Daou is a match made in deep-house Balearic heaven. Whether dancing under the stars, or swaying dangerously in your hammock, this is paradise music from the upper echelons.

Daniel Monaco Band is an international group led by Italian bassist Daniele Labbate. Blending jazz, funk, house and disco with live energy, their debut EP ‘Get Naked and Fly’ captures years of collaboration and experimentation. The result is a warm, analog-driven sound crafted by seasoned session musicians who’ve toured the world and are now channeling their creativity into original music as a group.

Lead track ‘Love Ago’ delivers modern disco with the authenticity of the golden era, ‘Mimouna’ has a psychedelic edge, with the WHODAMMANY remix taking the original into a more electronic direction. ‘The Devil Left Dancing’ takes a subtly off centre path, nodding to Brazilian influences, while the title track ‘Get Naked and Fly’ is raw and instinctive blending live instrumentation with electronic sensibilities.

The project is a testament to what happens when musicians trust each other enough to explore freely without chasing perfection. A live band speaking house, funk and jazz with one voice — analogue, soulful, and free.

Personnel : Percussion by Yannick Van Ter Beek, Drums by Robin van Rijn, Sax by Alessandro Russo, Guitar by Simone Cesarini and Bass by Daniele Labbate.

Designed by Bradley Pinkerton.

Oakland’s Naked Roommate have been slinking around the Bay Area lighting up stages, shaking asses & confounding listeners since 2018, when the group - originally just the duo of real-life partners Andy Jordan & Amber Sermeno (both formerly of The World) - self-released a cassette of demos (2018’s “Naked Roommate”). Members Michael “Mig” Zamora & Alejandra Alcala (Blues Lawyer) joined soon after to augment the sound & live band with their proper full-length album “Do The Duvet”, co-released in September of 2020 via UK label Upset! The Rhythm & Trouble In Mind. 2024 finds the lineup expanded even further to incorporate the horn section of Geoff Saba & Jeanne Oss on tenor & alto saxophones as well as percussion & marimba as the band readies their sophomore effort, the dizzyingly ecstatic ”Pass The Loofah”.

Recorded by members Andy Jordan & Mig Zamora from 2021-2023 as time & restrictions allowed, “Pass The Loofah” retains the wild energy of their debut, but leans into the rhythmic throbs perpetuated by forbears like Kid Creole & The Coconuts, Lizzy Mercier Descloux & ESG; the signature sound of UK’s On-U Sound & NYC’s 99 Records, but with a decidedly West Coast irreverence & a knack for absurdist exposition. Make no mistake, this is music designed to make your body MOVE & Naked Roommate won’t stop until they ’ve made sure every ass is shook. The band freely incorporates elements of the dancier side of post-punk (think A Certain Ratio or Liquid Liquid) as well as disco, funk, & house music. However, the group’s uplifting melodicism belies a deeper subtext, understanding the importance of the sense of community of dance music & the culture surrounding it and leaning into a Neo-socialist lyrical context. Shit is fucked, & we get thru it by helping one another & acknowledging & addressing the failures of disaster Capitalism & tech-bro hegemony (a state the band is all-too familiar with, living in The Bay Area) Take the first single “Bus”; a four-on-the-floor banger & salutary paeon to the ups & downs of the people’s transport that throbs & pulses with a late-night sashay (and a bridge that launches the tune into the stratosphere).

Elsewhere, “Fight Flight ”s funky horn stabs and Sermeno’s slinky vocals swoon over Numan-esque synth squiggles that are fortified & funkified toward the dance floor. “Broken Whisper ” edges into new territor y for the group, adding a Caribbean flavor a’la Kid Creole or The Specials that punctuates the persistent & synthetic beats underneath. Meanwhile instrumental interludes like “Ducky & Viv”, “G-Y pt. 1” & “G-Y pt. 2” oscillate into zones of sci-fi meets soap opera soundtracks, sounding not unlike the electronic experiments of UK industrial pioneers Chris & Cosey. Album closer “I Can’t Be Found” might be the album’s secret weapon; It ’s swooning synth melody & processed vocals recall early Daft Punk or MGMT by way of Derrick Carter & The Au Pairs. It ’s a beautiful song; perfect for the late night (or early morning) car ride home from the club.

Naked is the eighth studio album by Talking Heads and was originally released in 1988. The album peaked at number three in the UK Albums Char and includes the singles “(Nothing But) Flowers” and “Blind”. Reissued for the first time since the original release.

Vivien Goldman-style dubby post-punk synth pop.

With a handful of twitching insta-sketches, each addled with late-nite D.I.Y. quiver, the duo’s side-hustle sprouted in classical easy/cheap fashion [see the demo tape on their Public Nipples imprint for evidence].

As “global” concerns slowed, compatriots Michael Zamora (a superbly slanted multi-instrumentalist late of BAD BAD) and Alejandra Alcala (the region’s one true bass supervisor, also of bright lights BLUES LAWYER and PREENING) joined Sermeńo & Jordan as additional exposed flesh.

In full form, Naked Roommate has not only become a must-see, ever-evolving live act, but architects of Do The Duvet, one of the most intriguing and inspired recordings to come out of 2020’s American subterranea.

Do The Duvet proffers leftfield hijinks via punk execution, answering all the questions posed by questionable post-punk revivalism with sour lemon sneering and cherry-sweet smiles. It’s a fever dream, really…A flailing, sparking wire of hyper-compressed rhythms (breathing and synthetic), devolved guitar work and minced electronic compost. The resultant congealed groove is suitable for club situations and/or living space pulsations alike. Either way, the landlord is pissed.

Jordan’s beat programming, presumably inspired in part by recent obsessions with unjustifiably discarded electro sounds, manages to elicit physical response without veering into genre clichés like decay dance or Armageddon rave.

Instead, movement is prompted by sheer playfulness and high humour: see the sleepily sampled City sax on “Fondu Guru” or the comically taut bassline from “Credit Union”, itself a dreamwork born straight from a lovingly held-tight 99 Records 12”.

Thematically, Do The Duvet bounces between dissections of bourgeois trickery, the absurdity of domestication and the recognizable insanity of living in this particular age.As narrator, Sermeńo’s vocal presence is time-capsule great: a commanding grand-slam performance, alluring yet switchblade-dangerous in terms of wit and gaze. So totally wonderful.

What do you really own, anyway? What if your home does not even exist? Why not simply Do The Duvet and answer these queries yourself?

Surrender yourself into Naked Lights’ dark and intense orbit! From the first few seconds through to the end, On Nature is intensely addictive and welcomely unpredictable. Shades of post-punk, dub, even anarcho-punk are thrillingly blended into wholly futuristic shapes that defy easy categorization.

The cross-talking guitars speak their own thorny language, the atmosphere is wide-focus and carries a subtle tang of danger, and it’s topped off with unique vocals that are as in-your-face as they are intriguing and foreign. An altogether refreshingly vital listen, Naked Lights’ On Nature comes courtesy of Castle Face Records.

LuckyMe are very proud to present ‘Youth Mode’, the debut release from Naked.

Naked are an Edinburgh-based group consisting of Agnes Gryczkowska, Alex Johnston and Grant Campbell, who mix cold, neon-lit beats, glacial bass and guitar sculptures, filtered under hypnotizing and ephemeral vocals.

Their music speaks to a post-millenial, post-digital urban ennui - non-belonging and the pure, absolute loneliness of crowds. It is about the interaction of accelerating technology and the inherent sense of a terminal decline between the physical and hyper real - between man and machine, our bodies, senses and the industrial substances and digital technologies we surround ourselves with.

Deluxe EP with printed / debossed sleeve and digital download card.
Recently produced tracks for Mykki Blanco. Forthcoming album produced by Jacques Greene.

For fans of Mogwai, FKA Twigs, Salem, Optimo, The xx.

A mysterious two-song release, licensed from a group of Bamako musicians who, with the exception of the Souku master Zoumana Tereta, choose to remain anonymous. Malian head music influenced in equal parts by Ali Farka Toure and Lou Reed.

'Found an arrow head in the clay....', a line taken from the closing track on "Naked Shadows", the debut album from Los Angeles based song-smith Ryan Fuller's musical creation, Fort King. And when a demo landed at Autumn Ferment HQ last year it indeed caught their attention just like discovering some rare artefact lying in the earth. Drawing comparisons to some of the greats from yesteryears Laurel Canyon folk/country scene like Neil Young and Gram Parsons, to contemporaries such as psyche folksters Espers and fellow Californians Vetiver, this album is a glinting piece of gold from America's west coast alt. folk scene. Album opener "Osceola", with its ghostly whispers and harmonies, finger picked and slide guitar, is a perfect slice of psyche folk/Americana pie. This was the track that influenced Ryan to crown his musical creation Fort King, the track paying homage to the Seminole Warrior who waged war against the United States in the area where Ryan grew up as a child. The psychedelic tinges continue with tracks like "House Finch", with its echoes of late 60s pastoral folk, "Antique Dreams" and instrumental gem "Tanabata" with their cello arrangements shrouding the scene in an autumnal, melancholic mist similar to sounds from the band Espers. Tracks like "Hangin' On", with its ragtime guitar and honky-tonk piano and "Ricky's Lament" both with their backroom bar drums are prime examples of Fort King having one foot in "Harvest" era Neil Young and the other in the alt. country rock of Gram Parsons. Human emotions run riot, especially those of lost love, mistrust and betrayal, in the heartfelt "To The Moon" which brings the vibe down from ethereal folk highs to a level we can all relate to. Nostalgia breathes a thoughtful sigh with the track "Noda*Rama", drawing on simple past-times for inspiration. With a dusty, backwoods country road twang in his vocals, Ryan draws the album to a close with the fantastic depth of "Black Palms" and its theme of rural suicide drenched in emotive harmonies, light acoustic guitar and ukulele.

Kranky's run of superlative albums continues (3 albums in The Wire's Top 50 Records Of The Year 2007) with the second solo release from Portland artist Valet, aka Honey Owens, following up her widely lauded "Blood Is Clean" album from early 2007, another trip through the fertile garden of her imagination. From the gentle narcotic haze of the album opener "We Went There", which is dissected by Honey's trademark incendiary guitar work, to the lazy alien country blues of "Fuck It", and through the hyperventilating rhythmic distortion of the closer "Streets", "Naked Acid" is a fever dream of ghostly incantation and smudged psychedelia. Honey Owens has collaborated with a number of well-known and obscure artists including Jackie-O Motherfucker and Nudge and has been an important figure in the Portland, Oregan experimental music scene for more than 10 years. 'A beguiling, meandering combination of trance-like chants, pulsating drones and frazzled guitar doodles'. - The Wire.

Tight dynamic guitar driven songs from this local four piece who met at a Queens Of The Stoneage gig. There's an obvious influence from Josh Homme and co., but the songs are by no means derivative.

An abrasive mix of the explosive and the melodic, the level of agression hints at a powerful live performance where the full naked spectacle can be appreciated.
