This burgeoning Montreal-based label has seen a lot of growth over the past twelve months, and has decided there is no better way to celebrate than with its' oldest and most prolific artist, Sean Nicholas Savage.
Mutual Feelings of Respect and Admiration is now available on 12'' vinyl in record shops across Canada, or for $12 + shipping off the website (email Jasper at orders@arbutusrecords.com with your address). The record comes with a free digital download, which includes two bonus tracks: the original mixes of Friendship and Yes I Need You!
Savage himself has evolved dramatically from album to album, and offers his latest as a modern disco experiment. Mutual Feelings of Respect and Admiration is a collaborative project involving producers Sebastian Cowan and David Carriere (Silly Kissers). The album, initially recorded onto reel-to-reel tape, was then given over to Carriere who creatively remixed and arranged Savage's songs. This unusual project is pulled off with great success: breezy synth lines and pitched vocals gives the whole recording a nostalgic, yet eerie feeling. In sum it allows Savage's brilliant and timeless songwriting to find the modern listener at mind and heart. Perfectly poppy and aesthetic, its' depth is developed by the rich spacing and layering of the remix process.
