Description
New Ways is the highly - anticipated new album from Montreal's Leif Vollebekk, following his Polaris Prize finalist Twin Solitude. This record captures the moment between the kick and the snare, the instant before the backbeat. Vollebekk sings about memory and wish on 'Phaedrus', and New Ways is just like that - the sound of desire unfurling. Two years ago, things changed rapidly, and he didn't want to forget, so he made this record, as if composing a soundtrack for his life. While Twin Solitude was about self - reflection, New Ways is about engaging, changing, touching and being touched. It has louder, tighter grooves and the rawest lyrics he's ever recorded, a portrait of beauty, desire, longing, risk, and remembrance without regret. Vollebekk puts all his unspoken feelings on the record, from tenderness to violence, sex to rebirth. The songs were recorded quickly, with him and a drummer making adjustments until they felt right. Tracks like 'Hot Tears', 'Apalachee Plain', and 'I'm Not Your Lover' each have their own unique stories. After perfecting the mixes and masters, listening to the album felt like re - watching a film with eternal moments. This product comes as a 12'' opaque beige vinyl in a standard jacket with a matte finish, including a printed inner sleeve with exclusive artwork and lyrics, and a digital download.
To use this product, first, carefully take the 12'' opaque beige vinyl out of the standard jacket with a matte finish. Make sure to hold it by the edges to avoid fingerprints on the playing surface. Place the vinyl on your turntable and set the stylus gently on the starting groove. Then you can enjoy Leif Vollebekk's amazing album. When you're done, lift the stylus carefully and return it to its rest position. Gently put the vinyl back into the printed inner sleeve with exclusive artwork and lyrics, and then place it back in the jacket. As for maintenance, keep the vinyl in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent warping. Clean the vinyl regularly with a soft, anti - static brush to remove dust and debris. Avoid exposing the vinyl to extreme temperatures or humidity, as this can damage the sound quality. And don't forget, you also have a digital download, which you can access by following the instructions provided to enjoy the album on your digital devices.
