The Racketears (NEW SONGS!!!) | En Son Blog Yazısı
[Bu Bloga Abone Ol]
To pinpoint the moment The Racketears came into being would be difficult, nay, impossible. In their present guise, The Racketears have been writing and performing together for about a year. However, the songwriting partnership of Oli Jones and Tom Edney was forged, in true cosmic style, in the year 2000. Initially labeled as an acoustic duo, the two knew that their musical evolution would lead them into a far more sinister place—the domain of electricity.
So, equipped with their newly electrified guitars they headed off in search of a band (and some amplifiers; because without these, their guitars sounded rather quiet). Their quest was long, and at times the pair nearly lost hope, but in the summer of 2002 they discovered the missing link (so to speak) and Adam Wright was encouraged to play bass.
New material was written, performed and eventually recorded. It was this recording process that highlighted the need for a permanent (and portable) synth operator. At first this need was overlooked, but as it became more apparent that a musical arrow was missing from The Racketears’ metaphorical quiver, long-time friend Regan Sergent was selected as the absent arrow.
The Racketears have had a succession of drummers over the years, but of late have decided that Aidan Williams, (who is both talented and venerable), should be The Racketears drum-man. An honourable mention should also go to Chris Gozzard; our drummer of nearly four years prior to Aidan. He is now an astronaut.
Recently Tom left for greener pastures in Manchester, so Oli took on singing duties... which he's quite enjoying!
More writing and performing ensued, and we now find ourselves in Colwyn Bay, six years on; in the present day…

I present a new Welsh music show on BBC Radio Wales - Sunday night's 10pm - 1am.
On the last Sunday of every month I am starting a Wall-to-Wall music show - 3 hours of uninterrupted music courtesy of the most interesting, leftfield Welsh musicians.
If you have songs / remixes / slabs of noise / ambient field recordings / mutated woofer rattling dustup / sweet indie pop / 21st century punk / mountainside sampling rural hip hop… anything good that exemplifies your creativity, then SEND IT TO ME.

The track is just one of a number of 'out-takes' from their recent 'debut single' sessions...as it's not being planned for general release we've listed it up on our page purely as a 'sample'...so it'd be good to get some feedback.
