The Dead Weather - Blue Blood Blues/No Hassle Night/I Just Want To Make Love to You [12-INCH SINGLE] date 09/21/2010

Neutral's 2014 1st LP, Grå Våg Gamlestaden, is widely considered ground zero for the explosion of creativity that has transpired in the Swedish Underground ever since. It is the noisy experimental rock album that opened the door and welcomed in so many artists working behind the scenes. Gothenburgers Dan Johansson (Sewer Election) and Sofie Herner had previously made music together in the band Källarbarnen when they started discussing a new methodology and a fresh sound for recordings under a new name as a duo. Grapefruit was proud to reissue that first LP in 2021 and they are equally excited to follow up that sold-out with two more important Neutral releases, the self-titled sophomore LP from 2016 in a gatefold sleeve and the När mini album EP from 2017 which was originally limited to 300 copies.Grapefruit's reissue of the När mini album and the 2nd LP is the first time these have been reissued. Both are limited to 400 copies.

Following widespread acclaim for his recent LP 'Always Inside your Head', on March 4th / April 8th Matt Cutler AKA Lone releases four re-works of tracks from the album, entitled 'Natural Aerials'. On 'Natural Aerials (Mouth of God Part Two)', Lone utilizes a similar sound palette as album track 'Mouth Of God', but rebuilds it into a brand new banger. Energetic, deep, trancey and driven by jungle-schooled breakbeats, with bassbin shuddering low-end, he delves deeper into the vortex. Whereas the album was made predominantly using software, Cutler has since been buying hardware - and this marks the first track made on these newly acquired synths. Based around a version from Lone's recent sold-out live show at London's Village Underground, on 'Inlove2 (One Thirty Mix)' he ups the original's BPM count, with sights set firmly on the dancefloor. Taking cues from the 'Ambivert Tools' series, this is a high-grade, proggy, main room acid rush. On 'Visited By Astronauts (SHERELLE Had A Groove Remix)', the fast-rising star takes an ambient interlude from the album, and gives it what she calls 'a space age, footwork jungle twist'. Her first released remix, Sherelle continues an impeccable purple patch, with a re-rub that's both airy and light, but also heavily percussive, full of propulsive forward motion. She states, 'it's a pleasure and honor to remix for Lone, as being a long time fan, it's a beautiful thing to be able to collaborate. I really wanted my first remix to be special and also for someone who I hugely admire, so Matt asking me to be involved in this process was truly magical! Echo Paths Ebb And Flow' takes a downtempo album highlight, strips it back to just the synths, then unfurls them into a blissful ambient work that's melodic, warm and fuzzy, swaddling the listener in candy floss clouds.
