London Plane “Smalltown Boy“ (A Refugee Song)

in ,

OUT NOW
Bronski Beat’s 1984 classic synth pop hit “Smalltown Boy” is re-imagined by NYC’s London Plane and producer Carlos Dengler (former bassist/keyboardist of Interpol)

Subtitled “A Refugee Song”, the original message of “Smalltown Boy” has been expanded to shine a light on the current plight of displaced peoples across the world who are caught in ongoing conflicts. London Plane’s approach to this long-adored song uncovers a darker, more sinister tone to the original.

“Smalltown Boy: A Refugee Song” emerges from the recording sessions for London Plane’s much-anticipated album “Villains Heroes Ghosts” due for release Summer, 2026. Based in NYC, the six-piece band is comprised of an international mix of members with a reputation for energetic live shows. “Villains Heroes Ghosts” marks former Interpol bassist Carlos Dengler’s emergence as a skilled and ascending producer.

Produced by Carlos Dengler
Originally written by Steve Bronski/Jimmy Somerville/Larry Steinbachek
Reimagined and performed by London Plane
Additional keyboards and guitar by Carlos Dengler
Recorded and mixed John Davis
Mastered by Alex DeTurk

Jaysun Silver “No Excuses!” Album

in

New album just out from Brooklyn artist Jaysun Silver!

I had the pleasure of mixing and mastering this album.
Recorded and produced by Stanley John Mitchell (The Drongos) at his studio over the second half of 2024. This is a true neighborhood project with all three of us residing with in several blocks of each other.

“No Excuses!” is a true DIY juggernaut album - ten songs that all clock in at under 20 minutes.

It's raw, it's punk, it's spiky, the lyrics hit hard and honestly, perfect for today's current reality.

Available now on Bandcamp and all streaming services soon.
