Later this month drummer Jos\u00e9 Medeles is releasing a tribute album to guitarist and DIY iconoclast John Fahey titled Railroad Cadences & Melancholic Anthems<\/em>. A record of guitar and drum duets, Medeles collaborated with 3 of his favourite guitarists, M. Ward, Marisa Anderson, and Chris Funk, to bring to life 11 new compositions of “improvised rendezvous inspired and informed by [Fahey ‘s] looseness and rhythmic idiosyncrasies”, as the press release explains.<\/p>\n

Railroad Cadences & Melancholic Anthems<\/em> is out on May 20th through Jealous Butcher Records<\/a> and Medeles has shared the utterly bewitching ‘Golden” featuring Chris Funk (Decemberists, Stephen Malkmus) as the album’s second single. \u201cWhen you have that kind of freedom, I believe you transform into that,\u201d Medeles commented about the track and improvisational<\/span> approach. \u201cIt takes him a minute to get inside the music, and when he does, it\u2019s absolutely so solid.\u201d, he said about Funk’s collaboration.<\/p>\n

‘Golden’ comes with a video directed and edited by Rachel Blumberg, featuring found footage from the Prelinger Archives. Watch it now.<\/p>\n
