Dallas Movie: Robert Gomez - "Closer Still"
Tags
From the forthcoming "Brand New Towns" (Bella Union). www.robertgomezmusic.com www.myspace.com/robertgomezmusic 8/10 - Drowned In Sound.com Bio: The small university town of Denton, Texas is beginning to take on a mystical significance for Bella Union Records' Simon Raymonde. We could be forgiven for thinking the label was based there, or conversely confuse these Texan song-slingers for Brits! Like Saddle Creek's local development of Nebraskan bands, Bella Union has become home to 5 Denton bands already (Midlake, Lift To Experience, Jetscreamer, Mandarin & Centro-Matic), and the signing of Robert Gomez continues this fine tradition of talent from the Texas heartland. Robert is a troubadour cut from the darkest cloth, crafting atmospheres as vast and beautiful as the midnight Texas sky. Paying no mind to simple genres on his Bella Union debut, Brand New Towns, Robert Gomez explores the textures of mood, often finding his voice in the seemingly saddest spots. He intones, "If I could have you back, I'd only break you", sharing moments familiar to anyone with longing. Robert's music picks you up in a swirl of majestic melancholy; cradling you in real emotion. A student and lover of music since early childhood, Robert Gomez learned his lessons in expression in locales as disparate as the snowy sidewalks of New York City, under the suffocating summer sun of Denton, Texas, and from the cramped quarters of a swaying and clattering circus train. He lived and breathed the circus life for 6 months first with Ringling Bros and then the famous Barnum & Bailey Circus. Then he was approached by Middle Eastern musician Omar Faruk Tekbilek (Turkish) and toured Spain, Turkey and US playing Avery Fisher Hall in NYC and Central Park concerts. He also studied and played Cuban Guitar (Tres) with Nelson Gonzales, one of the greats, who currently plays with Marc Anthony, Gloria Estefan, Cachao, etc. He was actually recommended, by him, to play with the famous Cuban Son Group "Septeto Habanero" for a recent New York Concert. All these experiences no doubt seeped under the skin and as Robert began to record these songs, with help at the mixing desk from Centro-matic's Matt Pence, he knew, as did those keen ears at Bella Union, that he was onto something.... The resultant album shows that as well as being a keen observer of love and loss, Gomez also writes with finesse and restraint, his lyrics delivered in a hushed croon. His talented crew of players glance sideways across meandering tempos and towards the finale, when the curtain will drop on another rainy afternoon. On these grey days, Gomez provides the light, in effect "Cutting open the blackest night, with our eyes opened wide". Aside from running his Denton-based boutique label, Basement Front Records (who recently reissued Midlake's classic debut EP "Milkmaid Grand Army"), Robert Gomez now begins a new era of travel, presenting his heartsick melodies to countless Brand New Towns.

Dallas Movie: THE Meadow
Tags
A friend of mine wanted to show me a cool meadow she found in the middle of the woods. When we got there I started freaking out because it is THE meadow. DETAILS -you could here the creek trickling in the background -it is perfectly round -there are flowers all around -it took quite a hike to get there -there is even a dark patch of trees where a certain someone would have come out. (I'm pathetic, I know...) ALSO check out the lyrics to this song! The times we had Oh, when the wind would blow with rain and snow Were not all bad We put our feet just where they had, had to go Never to go The shattered soul Following close but nearly twice as slow In my good times There were always golden rocks to throw at those who admit defeat too late Those were our times, those were our times And I will love to see that day That day is mine When she will marry me outside with the willow trees And play the songs we made They made me so And I would love to see that day Her day was mine
