We basically like to create tiny sonic movies with each song we make.
Hiatus kaiyote singer full#
Bender added harrowing cello recorded in an empty water tank, Simon went full Phantom of the Opera organ-style, and Perrin's drum tones sound like a werewolf-gorilla hybrid smashing through a cityscape. There are real wolves that I recorded after visiting a wolf sanctuary in Upstate New York. I am obsessed with Halloween playlists, and keeping in the vein of Michael Jackson’s “Thriller", Screamin’ Jay Hawkins’s “Feast of the Mau Mau“, and our own "Swamp Thing”, we wanted to explore the spooky thematics in how we produced the song. I used this image of preserving something in this lifetime to be accessed in another as a metaphor for an unobtainable relationship, to re-appear throughout the ages because circumstances won’t allow it this time around. When they preserved the body through mummification for the afterlife, the organs were contained in a canopic jar. “A canopic jar is an ancient artifact from Egypt. Singer Nai Palm is a long-time lover of Halloween inspired music, as she explains in the song’s meaning… ‘Canopic Jar’ is their first new music since the acclaimed release of the album “Mood Valiant” in June. A 12" vinyl release of the single package will be available on October 29th here. "Canopic Jar" is a haunting, cyclical track exploring the descent into the darker corners of the mind. The package includes 2 exclusive inserts.The twice Grammy-nominated band share a new single "Canopic Jar" including a hypnotizing 32 second introduction titled "Journey To The Crystal Tomb". This is a limited edition of 1000 numbered copies on solid white coloured vinyl. The outro of the song is a cover of Tamia's “So Into You.” At this point in her journey, she has nothing to prove to anyone, just something that provides for everyone. There are six new tracks on the album written by Nai, including “Homebody”, which she refers to as her “purest offering.a sanctuary to lick your wounds.without acrobatics.” Also featured is the medley “Crossfire/So Into You” which dives into a topic that Nai rarely writes about.romantic relationships. Needle Paw features acoustic versions of Hiatus Kaiyote favorites “Atari,” “Mobius,” “When The Knife,” “Molasses,” and “Borderline With My Atoms”, as well as covers of songs by David Bowie (“Blackstar”), Radiohead (“Pyramid Song”) and Jimi Hendrix (“Have You Ever Been (To Electric Ladyland)”). Nai sees this album as a reminder to musicians that they don't have to rely on production to expose their gifts. It is dreamlike, honest, and beautifully transparent, revealing her musical ruminations to listeners with a courageous vulnerability and artistic generosity. Needle Paw is the rawest glimpse into Nai Palm's musical world. Their success set the stage for Nai's first solo effort.Ĭomprised almost entirely of her guitar playing and vocal arrangements, Needle Paw is Nai Palm's self-imposed challenge to explore the potential for immortality and timelessness within her music by stripping away the produced layers to focus on the element that is closest to the source of the human soul: the voice. This gift has sent her and her band Hiatus Kaiyote on a journey to sculpt songs that have been received and treasured across the globe. A two-time Grammy nominated singer, songwriter and musician from Melbourne, Australia, Nai Palm is a composer, instrumentalist, producer, vocalist and poet who approaches all of these self-taught disciplines with an intuitive, infectious grace. Needle Paw is the first solo album by Nai Palm, the lead singer and composer of R&B future soul outfit Hiatus Kaiyote. Limited edition of 1000 individually numbered copies on solid white coloured vinyl.
