tr±ci brakiem pomys³u
jak ca³a twórczo¶æ Stevena od dwóch albumów

Wspinaj±c siê na szczyty obiektywizmu: to przecie¿ teledysk do utworu z tego samego albumu, co tu siê dziwiæ, ¿e konwencja ta sama...

Things have been quieter than usual over the last 2 months, just a few festival appearances, but things will soon be gearing up again. Firstly I've written some new material for the first time in over a year - still a long way to go before any new album will take shape (aiming to record next Summer I think), but in the meantime we may premiere something pretty long on the European tour starting in mid October. Lasse Hoile has been over filming new visual content for the show, and we did a few photos at the same time, see attached. Jess Cope is also working on a new animated film for Drive Home. There will be a video EP out in time for the tour, which will include this, as well as the earlier video Jess made for The Raven that Refused to Sing, and a couple of live songs filmed in Frankfurt in March this year (different to the ones we already put on YouTube).

Later this month the new Blackfield album "IV" is released - though I'm involved more as a guest rather than a collaborator this time, Aviv has written and produced a set of beautifully melancholic songs which have that recognisably warm and distinctive Blackfield sound. I sing lead vocals on a song called "Jupiter", which you may have already seen the fantastic sand-art video for.

Last but not least, several remixes of classic albums are being released in October (done over a very long period of time, so it's coincidence that they all seem to be coming out on top of each other!) Yes (official) "Close to the Edge", XTC "Nonsuch", Jethro Tull "Benefit", and King Crimson "Red" were all remixed from the master tapes into stereo and 5.1 (except Red which is a new stereo mix only). I notice these releases referred to as "remasters" quite a lot on the internet, but what I do is remix, which is a very different and much deeper process that involves actually going back to the multitrack session tapes and rebalancing the instruments and recreating the whole sound picture. In fact most of my mixes these days are released without any mastering at all, I prefer it that way. (-:

Steeeeeve!!

Wybaczcie, ale moje pierwsze skojarzenie jest takie. "What is Steven going to include in the super-deluxe-special-edition of this album?" :P
No justice here, No liberty
No reason, No blame
There's no cause to taint the sweetest taste of blood
And greetings from the nation
As we shake the hands of time
They're taking their ovations
The vultures stay behind

Quote from: Steven Wilson
Here are the full contents of the Drive Home video EP - it will be released on Kscope in both Blu-Ray/CD and DVD/CD combinations in October.

Niezaprzeczalnie to kupiê, nie wiem jeszcze czy na koncercie czy przed ale prêdzej czy pó¼niej bêdê mia³ w ³apkach. Uwagi: Ok³adka wersji dvd niestety brzydka :/ ; powa¿ny minus to brak koncertowych wersji utworów, które s± na YouTube. A tak to w sumie mi³o ¿e nagra³ te teledyski na p³ytê :)

i tu cytacik dla tych co nie czytaj± dok³adnie na Facebooku:

Here are the full contents of the Drive Home video EP - it will be released on Kscope in both Blu-Ray/CD and DVD/CD combinations in October.

 Blu-Ray / DVD (running time: 30m video + 11m audio only)

 Drive Home (video)
 The Raven that Refused to Sing (video)
 The Holy Drinker (live in Frankfurt)
 Insurgentes (live in Frankfurt)
 The Birthday Party (audio only)
 The Raven that Refused to Sing (orchestral mix - audio only)

 CD (running time: 30m)

 Drive Home (4.08 edit)
 The Birthday Party
 The Raven that Refused to Sing (orchestral mix)
 The Holy Drinker (live in Frankfurt)
 Insurgentes (live in Frankfurt)

 Here are some pre-emptive answers to possible questions (I tried to think of everything!) :

 The new Drive Home video is directed by Jess Cope who also did the beautiful and much acclaimed video to The Raven that Refused to Sing. The video will also be released on the internet.

 The all new cover artwork is by Hajo Mueller, based on the characters from the video.

 The Birthday Party is an additional (mainly instrumental) song from the sessions for The Raven that Refused to Sing.

 All the songs on the Blu-Ray and DVD are mixed in both stereo and 5.1 sound, including the 2 audio only titles.

 The audio on the Blu-Ray is full lossless 96/24 throughout.

 There won't be any other DVD release from The Raven that Refused to Sing tour.

 The CD duplicates most of the contents from the video disc for ease of home/in car listening.

 The video for the Raven that Refused to Sing could not previously have been included on the Blu-Ray of the album because it was not ready in time.

 There won't be a vinyl edition.

 As with the album the audio is again flat transferred from the mixes, no mastering was done.

 Despite being a double disc, I wanted it to be priced as an EP, so hopefully very reasonably - I'm waiting for the record company to confirm prices.

 The video is for the full length album version of Drive Home, the edit only appears on the CD.

Due to a lot of requests the 2 live songs from Frankfurt currently on the official YouTube channel, The Watchmaker and The Raven that Refused to Sing, are being added to the Drive Home release. The DVD/BD now runs for one hour, and the CD for 50 minutes. Hmm... I might have a hard time persuading the record company that this is still an EP (-;

The revised running order:

DVD/BD

Drive Home (video)
The Raven that Refused to Sing (video)
The Holy Drinker (live in Frankfurt)
Insurgentes (live in Frankfurt)
The Watchmaker (live in Frankfurt)
The Raven that Refused to Sing (live in Frankfurt)
The Birthday Party (audio only)
The Raven that Refused to Sing (orchestral mix - audio only)

CD

Drive Home (4.08 edit)
The Birthday Party
The Raven that Refused to Sing (orchestral mix)
The Holy Drinker (live in Frankfurt)
Insurgentes (live in Frankfurt)
The Watchmaker (live in Frankfurt)
The Raven that Refused to Sing (live in Frankfurt)

Czyli najd³u¿sza EPka w historii - przed³u¿ona o waczmejkera i rejwena!

Niez³a strategia: wypu¶æ jak najwiêcej p³yt, najlepiej 2 razy tyle, co wszyscy inni razem wziêci, to szanse na nagrodê siê zwiêksz±. :P

Warto nadmieniæ, ¿e to tylko grafiki wykorzystywane przy pracy nad klipem, a nie kadry z teledysku.
