Rain Down the Drain - Out Now

Andrew' new song 'Rain Down the Drain' is available on Bandcamp now

 Andrew Cane will release his brand new single 'RAIN DOWN THE DRAIN‘ on 2021-04-30

With this new release Andrew Cane returned to his guitar driven sound he is normally associated with. The new music arrives 4 months after his single 'All I Wanted is to Have Sex with You' where all music was programmed and not even one single guitar tone was featured at all.

‘RAIN DOWN THE DRAIN‘ is back to playing real string instruments and with real drumming. No keyboards or programming is involved. Even parts that sounds that like strings, are played by E-Bow guitar and and put through the mangle with plugins to alter the sound. In principle, the opposite approach was taken here, as is usually the case when music producers try to simulate real guitar sounds with plugins.

The theme of 'RAIN DOWN THE DRAIN' is the up and down of a musician who is overrun by sudden success and goes off the rails. Drugs and false friends make him lonely in the glittering world of rock business and he eventually sets out to leave all that behind. The classic story of a winner who becomes a loser and tries to find himself again. 'RAIN DOWN THE DRAIN' combines yearning mood and interesting chord changes with guitar sounds, without falling into the cliché of a classic rock ballad.

Asked what Andrew misses about his production:
" Budget, budget, budget ... I would like to make a video where the starring role of the young musician is played by the long-haired Jason Butler from his time in "The Shannara Chronicles" and the used-up musician is performed by a long-haired Jonny Depp from the present time. For the women around him, I could imagine three gals from the series 'TWO BROKE GIRLS'. Kat Dennings as a rival to Beth Behrs, who is his girlfriend at the time of his rise and then when everything goes down the drain, is portrayed by Jennifer Coolidge. But Hollywood didn't answer yet, he added wit a smile in his face."

While Andrew is dreaming about budget and wonderful actors and actresses a lyric video will be released alongside.
But dreams can come true -or can go down the drain.
Let's wait and see and let's keep thumbs up!

 Andrew Cane has released his brand new single ‘All I Wanted Is to Have Sex with You’

 

The new launch is a testament to his ever-evolving genuine sound. The new recording arrives after the release of the single 'Lies' on September 30, 2020.

Most listeners probably associate Andrew Cane with guitars and rock drums. Not so with "All I Wanted Is to Have Sex with You", here he breaks his previous line in music.
In fact, not a single guitar appears in this tune and so do not rock drums.
The song is not performed vocally, but to emphasize the atmosphere, whispered.
A whisper with the fictional love on the other end of the digital connection.
The LoFi piano sound, the atmospheric vinyl crackle and analog noise , convey the mood of a lonely night in front of the computer.
As a genre, Andrew describes the track as whisper rap or whisper pop.

It describes the fictional situation of a pair of lovers who are spatially separated by the Corona Pandemic and can only communicate via the computer.
The song title clearly states what is missing for many of those who live alone and have no opportunities to meet the opposite sex.

Andrew explains, "At times like this, many people are realizing that physical closeness cannot be replaced by digital applications like Zoom over a long period. I don't want to mention warm hearted feelings. You can easily become alienated in the long run.
Until now, probably only sailors, soldiers or prisoners knew this feelings, to this extent.
‘All I Wanted Is to Have Sex with You’ is the shortest song I‘ve ever recorded as I see it like a snapshot with a Polaroid camera.
In light of this pandemic, I hope it stays a snapshot of history."

1996 Live at the Slaughterhouse by Andrew Cane & Band

In December 07, 2019 Andrew Cane dropped on EP with 6 songs on Bandcamp.com.

These songs Songs were recorded in 1996 at a live gig at the Slaughterhouse in Munich (Germany), with vocalist Claudia Cane, Andrew Cane on guitar and keyboards, Holger Schulten playing bass and Harry Bischof behind the drums.

The 6 songs of the live recordings were recorded with a Fostex R8 8-track recorder. On their further way they were transferred twice to other tape machines to record a few overdubs.

The recordings were originally made for the purpose of a CD, which the band wanted to sell as merchandise and as demo tape for promoters.

But it turned out differently because EMI Germany had become aware of the band, which was then known as Mata Hari, and Andrew Cane, as artistic producer, produced 12 songs on behalf of the company.

Dancing Queen, Run but Creep, Jesus was a Woman, In Our Hearts and Out of Line were re-recorded amongst other songs which had been demoed so far on Andrew's home recordings only. So the live tapes were history until Andrew Cane found the recordings in his sound archive and mastered them.

You can listen to the result on https://andrewcane.bandcamp.com/album/1996-live-at-the-slaughterhouse and download it in all common formats. Also lovers of CD quality will get their money's worth.

There's a Review on Andrew Cane's Blog - Read here

Julia stirbt - es lebe Josepha!

Josepha Grünberg hat in der Aufführung “Romeo und Julia”, bei den Heidelberger Schlossfestspielen am 27. Juli ihren letzten Auftritt als Julia. Zwei Tage später veröffentlicht sie als Sängerin ihre Debüt EP "Mr. Italy“.

Mr. Italy ist das Ergebnis einer Zusammenarbeit, die im Sommer 2015 begann, als Josepha Grünberg den Produzenten und Songwriter Andrew Cane zufällig auf der Neckarwiese in Heidelberg kennenlernte. Der Kanadier Andrew Cane war lange Mitglied der Fun-Punker „Lustfinger“, arbeitete als  Co-Produzent mit dem legendären Schlagzeuger Curt Cress und spielte mit seiner Band "Cane" unter anderem im Vorprogramm von AC/DC. 

Mit der sehr speziellen Stimme von Josepha Grünberg erscheint nun seine neueste Veröffentlichung – Theatervortrag, Indierock und Elektro-Pop finden in einer einmaligen Mischung zusammen. Josepha Grünberg`s Stimme – zart, kratzig, energisch – erinnert manchmal an Chrissie Hynde von den Pretenders, wie zum Beispiel bei dem Song „Damned“. 

A Part of Me

- Ein Song darüber, dass einem nichts als Erinnerungen bleiben. Der Indie-Rock-Song eroberte schon 2005 die Radiostationen und bekam durch Tim Renner’s Rundfunksender Motor Music in Berlin seinen Anschub.

Mr. Italy 

- Eine ruhiger Song über eine kurze, romantische Nacht.

Damned

- Ein Song über's Geschirrspülen, wobei man wunderbar zur Ruhe kommen und sich Gedanken um die eigenen Obsessionen machen kann.
