REKINDLE..... Love songs for lonely androidz ? Chrome plated Muppet Funk ? Fraggle Rock meets New Edition in a digital marionette passion play ? Faux-rockabilly dating agencies ??
What does it all mean ???
It means everything and more to Rekindle, song writer, performer and producer of the future of avant pop. A future where the robotic aesthetic of post New Wave Minneapolis collides with Philly-Soul sentimentality, where candy coated melodies float over a merry go round of bumping beats, where light hearted flirtations with Art Rock sensibilities marry a sort of modern day existential Doo Wop...
Foregoing the pose of jaded cynicism of so much underground music, Rekindle recasts his music into a milieu of playfulness and idealism. Meanwhile the multi tracked cascade of lyrics chart a trajectory that arcs between romantic redemption and total nihilism. A very Catholic aethiest, Rekindle, unlike his Pop Funk forebears Cameo, does indeed have a lot of time for Psychological Romance..... A New Romance, a dedication to glamor, elegance and the delivery of more twitch'n'grind thrills per minute than a Jody Watly lp playing on 45.... that's the embodiment of the Rekindle manifesto, a by-product of single mindedness, isolation and DIY auterism.
With the release of debut album The Chandelier Rekindle unveils his (fantasy) world view: An impressionistic blur of romantic aspiration, sophisticated wit, flashes of autobiographic detail, ultra-melodic hooks and rhythmic invention. Distilling his own idiosyncratic form of cohesion from influences as disparate as Timbaland and Racy, Simple Minds and Mtume, The J. Giles Band and Scritti Politti, Rekindle unleashes a future classic of pop funk heaterz, whimsical, arcane Artrock, ethereal and elegant digital ballads and non-conformist aural fairy floss.... All delivered with a grand sense of occasion and a radicalised dedication to traditional showmanship.
