专辑简介

THE GIRL SUITE EP by spoken word artist Myra Davies, with music by Gudrun Gut, is four tracks pertaining to the shared culture of girls and women. No frothy pop clichés of Girls made to love who just wanna have fun. These beats are for girls struggling to find their way in a dangerous world. The EP is a taster for the forthcoming Myra Davies album “Cities & Girls” (moabit17) and is available as an online release at all quality download portals in August 2008. MY FRIEND SHERRY Looks back to the early 60s. Pigtails and pop, and no legal abortion; a true story about how it was then and just might be again, this track is a playful and powerful response to the campaign to limit womens' right to legal abortions. The DRILL REMIX puts an industrial spin on the notion that every girl should own an electric drill. This remix is exclusively available on THE GIRL SUITE EP. LOVE (DEMO) is an up-tempo sequenced track about love and that way it has of morphing into its opposite. This “demo” track is also exclusive to the EP. The VALKYRIE are loud and horsey girls. The VALKYRIE are living the dream with their own horses and rebellion too. Davies' poem on the bond between girls and horses is embedded in Gut 's lively remix of Wagner's Ride of the Valkyrie.
