WELL...
...I was flicking through my emails when I saw 'Girl In A White Dress EP' so I knew straight away I would like it. So I clicked the email & link to listen and guess what? I Love It! How does that work? For me it has a nostalgic quality of course but it's done so charmingly natural did I say I Love It!?
If you know me you'll know I'm a fan of Roland Barthes & Death of the Author but that hasn't stopped me putting the track notes in. I wouldn't read them just listen and find your own 'Girl In A White Dress' - Best pp xx

EP Track Notes
Lead track, the sumptuous Girl In A White Dress, is a song about re-connecting with your former carefree self - the person you were before becoming tied down with the realities of modern life. A fan favourite from their debut album, it was compared to St. Etienne & Stereolab. The band have taken the track’s driving motorik beat & mellotron strings and re-worked it in way in keeping with their punchy and invigorating live sound.
The second half of the EP takes a reflective turn. All The Mad Things is serene, ambient and quirky – layered vocal loops, spoken-word lyrics and trumpet show the band’s more experimental side. The mellotron-drenched instrumental Above & Overture closes the EP in style. Using entirely vintage ’70s instrumentation, this could be a lost soundtrack to an Antonioni film re-imagined for the 21st century.
