She Past Away is a driving, mesmerizing outburst of sentimental anxiety through the nihilistic mind-frame. She Past Away’s the 3rd album “Disko Anksiyete” will be available via Fabrika Records on Jon standard black vinyl and limited edition of hand-numbered 1000 copies of clear red and clear violet vinyl, as well as on CD & digital formats.īased in Barcelona and Athens, She Past Away blends dark-wave with an 80’s influence, post-punk era guitars with minimalist poetry sung in Turkish. Across soul-crushingly intense and wistful songs and odes in Turkish lyrics, the band also depicts their music in Spanish with “La Maldad” – which is the band’s first ever Spanish song. The album offers 10 songs with well-crafted synth lines, calmly echoing vocals and liquid guitar melodies in an emotional build sparkling through the foreground. “Disko Anksiyete” drags the band into a somber yet piercing mood than usual, mocking up modernist fears and doubts in their iconic 80’s influenced sound with songs about dancefloor anxiety, desperation, and dilemmas. Already having scored numerous crowd-puller performances all around the world, She Past Away now graces the audience with a beautifully dark and driving new album “Disko Anksiyete”.Įxperimenting old-new aesthetic of synth music into their core guitar stuff, She Past Away surveys a sound, a look, and a sensibility which will sweep the audience through a dense, continual, epic trip. Since then Turkish duo has established themselves as one of the most influential and successful genre-defining acts throughout the World. All tracks recorded in Nijmegen, The Netherlands.It’s been almost four years since the release of the band’s sophomore album “Narin Yalnızlık”. Even though I prefer the version on the finished album, this one is pretty good too. Track 16 is an alternative version of The Captain’s Day. Track 15 was found hiding on a top shelf and suitably dusted off. Track 12 is a previously unreleased one from the Swoon LP sessions. Tracks 13 and 14 were part of an EP single entitled The Honey Button. The image is me, totally immersed by the wonderful sound of… music. Thanks to expert remastering by Raymond Steeg it now sounds a lot better. I mixed and produced the album myself (except for tracks 2, 9 and 16, where Edward helped out) and it came out sounding all muddy. Edward Ka-Spel played the keyboard sequence on Scars On A Windowpane. I hope she doesn't mind its inclusion here - it's such a beautiful song. All songs were written and performed by me, except Verdi Cries, which Natalie Merchant wrote. Still, I was terribly proud when the LP was finally released on Seven In A Broom In The Sky in November 1993. The second test pressing wasn’t much better, but we simply couldn't afford a third one.
However, the first test pressing sounded horrible and was duly rejected. We spent a fortune on the design for the cover, which came out really good. It was Frans de Waard who suggested I should make a vinyl album out of them. Some songs were recorded, some half-recorded, most were half-forgotten.
After my first proper steps into the world of recorded music with the release of the cassette The Garden Of Perpetual Dreams, I had written dozens of songs, mostly based on keyboard sequences using an ancient but trustworthy Ensonic ESQ 1 synthesizer.
