#The ballad of jane how to#
(I swear there’s even a slide whistle in the mix somewhere.) Haircut celebrates the simple, messy joy of discovering who you are meant to become – or at least feeling like you are getting closer to it.įor more: Alex the Astronaut’s forthcoming album, How to Grow A Sunflower Underwater, is out 22 July. She does so with the most joyous, effervescent tune she’s released to date: it’s a dance tune for the car, skirting unashamedly close to novelty territory with mentions of Uno, hot chips, Grey’s Anatomy, her mate Gina. Alex the Astronaut chronicles the empowerment that comes with an image change, in bringing one closer to their true self. “New hair, new you”, goes the saying and while that’s a rather trite sentiment, it happens to ring true a lot of the time.

A strange pop trip.įor more: Watch the fitting Sims-esque video clip by Thomas Rawle, once of underrated band Papa Vs Pretty. Montaigne recently collaborated with David Byrne, and it’s his mixture of heart and machine that this track most resembles. It’s a singular production, and when Freyr enters, it’s as an unsettlingly disembodied voice. Montaigne uses her voice in many wondrous ways here: it is operatic, yet with a rhythmic, robotic quality, as it ticks like a clock and rings like a cash register. Musically, however, it sounds like the output of a newly-sentient computer programmed on the entire Bjork discography. Lyrically, this song is all emotion, highlighting a new love that makes her “feel” quite a lot: at home, loved, adorable, normal. Montaigne’s dalliance with Eurovision continues to bear fruit, as she teams up with fellow contestant Icelandic artist Daði Freyr for this slice of supernatural pop music.
