Song Premiere: Gardens & Villa, 'Fixations'
WNYC | Jun 9, 2015
There was a moment, listening to Gardens & Villa's new song "Fixations," that I was transported back to 1974 and hearing Brian Eno's "Third Uncle" from that brilliant album Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy). It's all in the way Chris Lynch and Adam Rasmussen blend buzzy synths, guitars and vocals to make one sonic signature.
"Fixations," the song we are premiering here, is from the third album from the once-Santa Barbara trio, now Los Angeles duo Gardens & Villa, whose new album is called Music For Dogs. It's produced by Jacob Portrait with Dusty Ineman on drums and Shane McKillop on bass. The album is out on August 21.
