Two Lone Swordsmen — Haywire Sessions Live and DJ set on Groovetech Radio
Опубликовано: 23 мая 2015 г.Two Lone Swordsmen on Groovetech Radio.
The Two Lone Swordsmen are British house DJ and producer Andrew Weatherall and studio engineer Keith Tenniswood. Formed in early 1996, following the dissolution of Weatherall's influential Sabres of Paradise techno act, the Swordsmen have explored a variety of styles, from electro and 4/4 techno to post punk and downtempo in later years. Originally they released material on the label Emissions Audio Output, run by Weatherall. However, the small nature of the operation limited the duo's success and they subsequently signed to Warp Records, making them labelmates with acts such as Autechre and Boards of Canada, as well as setting up the Rotters Golf Club label for their more dancefloor-friendly output under various other guises.
In 2004 they released From the Double Gone Chapel, exhibiting more of a late 1970s dub and post punk sound than their previous work, influenced heavily by groups like PiL. It was released with the single Sex Beat, a cover of the popular Gun Club song. Their latest album, Wrong Meeting, was released in April 2007, with Wrong Meeting II following a month after. Set solidly in the dub rock vein they explored on From the Double Gone Chapel, the duo venture into sleezy country and LCD Soundsystem-style punk funk disco.
These sets were were originally streamed in real media in the early days of online streaming radio. Unfortunately, you'll have to excuse the poor quality.

The eponym song is one of the most powerful of this album, a flight of lyricism mastered in every way.
I picture myself as an external spectator observing someone whose dream comes true, but sharing his feelings in real time. I think I found the perfect picture to describe that dream.
I see this man who had the dream to fly but never got the opportunity to live it, although he settled down next to an airfield. Every day, he watches a few people climbing aboard gliders and flying away to spend hours free in the clear sky, and then slowly dancing in the sky in silence, turing, looping, circling through the air. He swears that one day, he will be the pilot of one of these and do the same.
He starts to save money each month in order to take lessons and earn the right to pilot of a glider. At 1:34, he saved enough money to take the lessons he wanted, and starts working hard to have his license, thinking more and more to the moment he'll be up above.
2:39 is the turning point of the song, where the man finally sits in the cockpit. The pitch of the notes, particularly at 2:45, makes the scene dramatic. You can feel the adrenaline in his veins, the moment he awaited for so long has finally come. The glider is slowly pulled by the plane and starts gaining altitude. The weather couldn't be more perfect, some clouds are stripping the blue sky like foam on the ocean.
And finally, at 3:43, the rope between the glider and the plane is dropped. The moment of his life he will never forget. That dream followed him for years and years, and now, he tastes the true definition of freedom. The intensity of the moment is almost unbearable.
4:47, I slowly stop following him, because I want to leave him with his dream. I see this man in the cockpit, getting smaller and smaller, and observe him until the glider is just a white dot in the deep blue sky annoucing the arrival of the night. Now, I can't even make the difference between the glider and the bright stars. He probably won't come home and will stay far up above us for eternity.
A sensation of freedom and bliss emanates from this song, that's why I'll advise it to you first.
Enjoy folks, and if you feel like it, I'd like you to share your sensations too, here in the comments section or on my Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/adda.ambient
