One of New Zealand’s most acclaimed songwriters returns to releasing music, but in a new way. Feeling strangled by music industry release norms of premieres, deadlines and embargoes on his music, Lawrence Arabia (James Milne) decided to take a step closer to his fans, sending them his new music as he makes it.
Milne describes his seventh offering Meaningless Words as
an "ambiguous sketch," typically underplaying the lushness of the
recording of strings, brass and vocal overlays that form an epic rumination on
the songwriting process and the current state of the world.
Adding to the Lawrence
Arabia's Singles Club stalwarts of Alistair Deverick on
drums and James
Dansey on mixing and mastering duties are supremely
talented instrumentalists, Peau
Halapua (violin), Tim Stewart from Hopetoun Brown (trumpet)
and Jeff Henderson (clarinet/saxophones)
also director of theAudio Foundation.
