    Spring Town - Acoustic Delights EP

    urbandelights:

    Ooh lala - URBAN DELIGHTS NAKED!

    The style clash monster stripped down to the bones: We always wondered what an acoustic version of us would sound like. MTV Unplugged without the MTV.
    The fourth EP “SPRING TOWN - ACOUSTIC DELIGHTS” is the perfect record for the morning after the rave: Four acoustic versions of the past, present and future of Urban Delights. Chilled out and folky, but nevertheless funky & hypnotic.

    SPRING TOWN - why not release a cover version before the original? The steel string guitar replace the string loop that the album version is built around, and we were surprised how great this song feels without any electric strings attached. It is always interesting to find out what you can leave out instead of adding layers..

    WEEKEND LOVERS - an upcoming single to be, this song works so well with so little. A Jose Gonzalez inspired nylon guitar replaces all the electronics and indie rock sounds, plus one chilled vocal. Less is more. A singer songwriter version of a strong song about nightlife, sex & passion of a party weekend: “Just for a night your life seems so far away..”

    BREAK IT ALL DOWN - the originial has been released on the first EP and was a part of the infamous “Urban Delights vs Bikinirama” video project that created some surprising internet buzz. Here we tear the original apart and make a new bluesy start. Our favourite quote about the video so far: “An anarchist’s wet dream” haha..

    ROCK ‘N’ ROLL STAR - An Urban Delights Classic revisited - the funky dancefloor filler gets a minimal acoustic treatment. The party song about the inner confusion of a struggeling rock ‘n’ roll superstar is transformed into a darker Curtis Mayfield inspired soulful world. With just an acoustic guitar and a beautiful cello (thx hagen), whispering instead of shouting - compare to the original.

    and oh yeah, technology: the “buy” and “buy the whole set” links only work on our website!!!! click HERE please!

    Last but not least: “Art Inspired By Music” #7 - This EP´s artwork is by Mittenimwald, a Hamburg based artist that interpreted “Spring Town” with a stunning combination of stencil & indian ink. We are big fans, his work is amazing.. Don’t forget to visit his blog or website, he’s currently exhibiting some of his art at the “Gängeviertel” in Hamburg. Watch out for this guy, he will be big soon!

    Stay tuned,

    HK & MH
