Artist Bio:
About The Ex Were just about to release a 7 inch single Maybe I Was The Pilot / Our Leaky Homes. The first release with our new singer Arnold De Boer and the first 7 inch release on Ex Records for 20 years. The last time was for the 6. series. Six singles we released in 1990/1991, which hopefully we ll re-release this year on a CD. You can hear Maybe I was the Pilot and Our Leaky Homes at our myspace page. www.myspace.com/theexnl Maybe I was the Pilot is available as a free download at the Pitchfork website: http://www.pitchfork.com/reviews/tracks/11713-maybe-i-was-the-pilot/ The title Our Leaky Homes comes from the title of a chapter of a book called HEAT (How to stop the planet from burning) by English journalist George Monbiot. The main riff of Maybe I was the Pilot was borrowed and adapted from a song called Elosi aberu akipore imaniti abiro by Ugandan singer and adedeu (harp) player Iganitiyo Ekacholi. It appears on the CD Secular Music from Uganda SWP Records 024, one of the re-releases of Hugh Tracey recordings from Eastern and Southern Africa from the early 50-ies Distribution: http://www.konkurrent.nl >>> THE EX AND BRASS......[Read More]
