专辑简介

Dear Annex is Marcelo's 11th solo album, originally recorded in 2009 - 2010. 10 sunny songs + one sprightly remix, bright and deep, in melody and form, covering a wide range of styles and tone. Dear Annex is a musical trip to a land where dada funk and brooding bubble gum chew in rhythm to dance-a-la-dense mixes, as poetry flexes and horns blare, setting a mood surreal yet satisfyingly familiar: pop, funk and rock sensibilities at the root.

Mr. Radulovich, working at Titicacaman Studio, acts as writer, multi-instrumentalist, producer and engineer. The album also features wonderful contributions by talented collaborators: 5 of the 10 songs in Dear Annex feature lyrics by Neil Carlill (Delicatessen, Chicanery and Marcelo's partner in Me Me the Moth); 3 tracks feature guitar and piano by Mike Keneally (Zappa, Dethklok); trumpet, percussion and vocals by Chris Conner (Channing Cope, Bantam Feather); trombone samples by Michael Dessen (Cosmologic); theremin by Jim Call (The Penetrators, Zirk Ubu and Marcelo's band mate in Nicey Nice World); turntables by DJ Tenshun and a couple of appearances by Bill Ray on drums, another one of Marcelo's Nice World mates.
