CHICAGO, ILLINOIS (12/21/07) - It was in July of 1975 when Bob Dylan gave Lo-Fi music one of its biggest boosts with the release of The Basement Tapes. The music was real; it was raw and it was an artistic experience. It''s been over thirty years and Lo-Fi has another boost coming. However, this time it''s not Bob Dylan - this time it is Mike Wilson and Neutral Drop''s latest release entitled Lost Love and Broken Dreams. So you long for some relief from today''s world of slick and over-polished sounds? Mike Wilson and Neutral Drop have created precisely what you need - aural authenticity wrapped up in lucid and imaginative sound-scapes.
Lost Love and Broken Dream, - put simply - is "perfect imperfection." It follows on the heels of the success of Neutral Drop''s two prior releases; the self titled Neutral Drop and Falling. Mike Wilson began his journey into the Lo-Fi sound with nothing more than a four-track recorder and a collection of late night recordings. For Wilson, the magic is blending genres of Industrial, Folk, and Rock into sound-scapes within the Lo-Fi paradigm. Wilson, who is the main songwriter on most of the tracks, has a knack for capturing creativity in ways most other artists wouldn''t even dare attempt. He attributes some of this to pure stubbornness. Wilson says, "I have had more than a few times when people have told me you can''t do such and such in a recording, only to come back a few days later and ask me how I did it!"
With ten new tracks, Lost Love and Broken Dreams draws a lot from the real life experiences of Wilson. The album reflects his interest in the Goth scene while growing up in Chicago, and is the reason for including cover songs such as Cure''s "Cold" and Joy Division''s "New Dawn Fades." For Wilson, these songs were almost a sound track from his past and they set the whole mood for the album. Influences from artists such as Pink Floyd, Beck and The Beatles are very apparent throughout the album. Wilson''s gift of creating a sound-scapes and visual imagery is displayed perfectly with artistic poise in "Everyone is Sleeping." Still not convinced? Then cue the cover of "Suicide is Painless." So you need aural authenticity? You want to boost your Lo-Fi experience? Then you need Neutral Drop''s perfect imperfection, moody introspection, and a copy of the new release of Lost Love and Broken Dreams!
