Past But The Dream

by Nathan Womack

/
  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    WXTM-010
    Debut 7" 45RPM
    Release/Ship Date: 01/07/2022
    Layout and Design by Nathan Womack
    First installment of our DigginEast imprint/series
    Includes custom cut DigginEast sticker (while they last)

    The debut 7" from Wax Thematique label founder and producer Nathan Womack, merges the Sublime Frequencies label's knack for detecting the most interesting sounds from far-flung zones and Madlib's cosmopolitan, funky sonic travelogues. Side A's "Past But The Dream", was constructed from records found on a Vinyl digging trip in Bangkok, Thailand. It moves with that sidewinding swagger common to Far East Asian groups of the '60s for whom rock was not second nature—and it comes out sounding fresher for that obstacle. Side B's “Nanjing Road” is smoldering songcraft that goes down like an elixir of baroque prog magic from 1971 Italy. Re-built and sampled from vinyl discovered in an underground electronics market in Guangzhou, China, this is exit music for a film that makes you swallow your heart.
    -Dave Segal
