my dear friends at erased tapes<\/a> are celebrating five years of being a record label. and they’ve put together a rather deluxe box of five 7″ records, with ten exclusive tracks from the label roster.<\/p>\n

\"erased<\/a><\/p>\n

along with some of the other labels i’ve been privileged to work with over the last years, these folks have supported me and my musical habits in a way that i am eternally grateful for. so when they asked me to make a song for their five year anniversary compilation, of course i didn’t hesitate for a moment. robert raths (label founder) actually said to me, ‘i want you to make the best song you’ve ever made’. and although he was kind of joking, i took him rather seriously and set out to push my own boundaries a bit and make something special for him. i suppose as a recording artist i should always set out to make the best thing i can, and i think i do . . . but something about that comment from robert gave me some real motivation. so in the spirit of the five year celebration, i wrote a song in 5\/4 timing, and made it exactly five minutes long. it’s called GIVE A SMILE IN 5. and i must say, i’m very proud of this odd little track . . . i had recently acquired a bunch of new studio gear at my place in berlin, so i was able to explore some exciting new sonic territory (think deep bass and tape delays). normally i would post the song here for streaming, but erased tapes has decided to make this compilation for vinyl buyers only until december, when a digital version will be available. so, if you can afford it, do think about supporting these wonderful folks and indulging in a very special item!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
