The music artist
known as Vaughty has released his newest electronica single, titled,
“Endless Road,” on the Aggro Monkey Records label. The song is a
dance-floor friendly anthem with upbeat, emotionally charged chord
progressions, and 80s-style synth instrumentation. Fans of Vaughty's
underground cult-classic, “Warm Inside,” will not be disappointed
by the familiar new-wave sensibilities Vaughty loves to fill his
music with, and which keep listeners clamoring for more from the
young and endlessly fun composer.
Perhaps most
remarkable about this latest Vaughty single, which is an instant
classic and for which he is certain to be known in short time, is how
time flies when one listens to it. At just under five minutes long,
the track is relatively comprehensive, yet it seems over just as soon
as it has started. This temporal shift is not unlike the experience
of “Warm Inside,” which is approximately the same length and also
seems to always end too soon. Vaughty music – and “Endless Road”
in particular – inspires a yearning need for more Vaughty music.
It's addicting. One chain-smokes his singles in repetition.
Part of the
unstoppable flavor of “Endless Road” is that Vaughty has
re-orchestrated the track from a nearly forgotten song of yesteryear,
with which he fell in love and felt compelled to recreate it from his
own vision, like da Vinci painting the Mona Lisa.
“It's a cover song,” Vaughty says
of this. “It was originally written by Alides Hidding and performed
by his band, the Time Bandits, in 1985.”
The Bandits' distinctive eighties feel
is retained, and even polished up by Vaughty's rendition. He has also
added the more nineteen-nineties elements for which his music is
famed and adored, many attributes of which he shares with early
electronica bands like Depeche Mode.
His vocals, provided by himself in his
shadowy, yet strangely comforting tone, are far more stylistic than
those of the original. The enrapturing, angelic voice of frequent
Vaughty collaborator, Jenny Palmer, make “Endless Road” a work of
such delicate finery that no music fan can ignore the secret treasure
that is Vaughty any longer.
Fortunately, no music fan has to.
“Endless Road” is available online worldwide beginning spring of
2013. Very un-fortunately, however, the Vaughty LP is still some time
off. At least the world can content itself with this little piece of
musical perfection in the meantime.
