Before Andrew Caddick aka our absolute favorite
Jeans Wilder is gonna turn this musically extraordinary year into an outstanding one with the release of his LP
Nice Trash via our French darlings over at
La Station Radar and
Atelier Ciseaux in November (I really don't intend to put up the pressure here, but seriously, check
this and
this in case you haven't - and look at the terrific back cover art below), he's about to make the wait a little easier by putting out the digital-only EP
Wish You Were Here very soon via his
bandcamp. The seven track piece will include all three songs from his
Don't Fly So Close to the Sun C18 tape which Andrew had released in June on
Trivial Pursuit, plus four previously unreleased tunes that were intended to become part of another split cassette with
Deep Sht which will never come into being for reasons that are unknown to the author of these lines (he probably could have asked though).
In any case, below you can already listen to one of those long buried gold nuggets, along with the title track of said Trivial Pursuit release. While
Don't Fly So Close to the Sun might be considered Andrew's most ambient side to date, a gently meandering and deeply contemplating synth instrumental,
The Shakes on the other hand is a "classic" Jeans Wilder lo-fi jam, a loose drum machine pattern carrying a heavily clipping guitar and Andrew's melancholically toned, equally distorted and echo-laden vocals, in essence exactly the style we've learned to adore this guy for in the first place.
