Out now with this incredible
@squarenath DiscDub Mix from the renowned Hull-based dub impresario aka
@simmadub , is my new single “Neon Tuxedo Hotel” - overlaid with the most sublime and musical of performances by clarinetist
@thebencastle (Radiohead, Quincy Jones, Gorillaz) and trumpeter
@djdeirdre Dominic Glover (Brand New Heavies, James Taylor Quartet, Groove Armada) and Dylan
@mutinyuk Barnes on guitars.
It’s the latest chapter from the musical book The Legend of
@kaptainkarnival . At this point of the story you have searched and devoted immense time, love, energy in your pursuit of faith and fancy, and you may not have liked what you found.
The Neon Tuxedo is like a heartbreak hotel. Desolate, dejected and broken you seek refuge where many have also come to fall apart. But within this building are many other souls, each with their own story. Some are tragic, some are joyful, some are sinister, some are sensual. They remind you that you are but a piece in that puzzle of life, that there is a whole world both in and out there, some of it much better, some of it way worse.
So stop basking in your self pity. Be a part of it, good or bad, hot or cold, sweet or sour. Embrace the drama, it’s what life is.
