Fauna Twin Release New Single ‘Mother’

Fauna Twin are Parisian singer Claire Jacquemard and Welsh guitarist/producer Owain Ginsberg (Hippies Vs. Ghosts and We Are Animal).

Following on from the effervescent EP The Hydra, released in 2016 (Which everyone must listen to!) Fauna Twin release their eagerly anticipated new single ‘Mother’ accompanied by a mesmerising music video. A remarkable comeback.

A very appropriately timed release with it being the month of Mothers Day. For Fauna Twin this song is dedicated to “Mothers” and “An ode to birth even in reverse”. The vocals are effortless and hypnotic, the beat thrumming and building throughout is trance-inducing, a source of comfort like a heartbeat.

Claire says of the track:  “I’m so happy to share with you that tune, which I wrote religiously like a psalm, an ode to love and its density.
Dedicated to my Mothers, to all the ramifications and the roots.
This song was a monochord challenge, as its structure is unusual. The arrangements and layering process were rooting into a true thinking and positive artistic pressure.

The video is edited by the great Bec MC Jagger who had been a true ally during the visual fulfilment.”

Hippies vs Ghosts Release 5th Album ‘Giamocs’

Owain Ginsberg (The Heights, We Are Animal) returns with Hippies vs Ghosts 5th album titled ‘Giamocs’ released via Bandcamp.

The Welsh multi-instrumentalist, singer songwriter & producer is on fine form as always, he is easily one of the most consistent song-writers over the past two decades. ‘Giamocs’ oozes class from beginning to end.

Recorded at his home studio in France the record has elements of Can and songs which wouldn’t be out of place on a Quentin Tarantino or Guy Ritchie movie soundtrack, to be fair that would be a poor portrayal of his song-writing because for me his songs are in a different league to any songs that ever appear in these movies.

Owain has an ability that not many other musicians can ever reach. He always manages to capture something which sounds so alive and free, tribal in space! Some of the best melodies and riffs you could never imagine. He really attacks your mind with melodies, its futuristic yet still has the deepest of roots and gets right into your soul.

I’m not the first to say that Owain is a living genius. I’ve heard it said by some of the best names in music over the years.
