Paul White’s made a musical career for doing whatever he feels, and actually earns the ever-buzzing term “experimental”… White’s got a new project under his belt in the form of Paul White & The Purple Brain. It’s a Now Again/Stones Throw project and serves as the London born White’s sophomore set.
“A collaboration of sorts, the entire record is based around and inspired by the work of little-known Swedish psych-rock guru S.T. Mikael. Heavy on Eastern influences and otherworldly concerns, Mikael’s music ranges from searing electric guitar-led dirges to dreamlike ballads to ghostly atmospheric experiments – sometimes all within the same song. The strange and wonderful home recordings of this cult hero have been issued in tiny quantities since the 1990s on the Subliminal Sounds label.”
White put together an animated video for “Pride”, which you can see below.
