How Long 02:48
Another day Where a star has turned ice cold Yet so clichéd To treat your friend as your foe But how long Will it take to erase and then How long For me not to fake A sour air An everlasting grief of a stone The hands are trapped And the buzz of wind is gone How long Will it take to join the dots And how long Will it take to ease the thoughts How long Will it take to see what’s wrong How long Will it take to join the dots

Empty space Grocery bags Sleeping pets Cold face Glass on the shelf Book of the elf Triangular shapes Guitars out of phase Trembling walls Knock on the door The bird’s wings The piggie’s squeaks Guitars out of phase Rectangular shapes Knock on the wall And here it comes A soul for hire From dry lips The day ain’t over Until the end of covid Telecomando che fa “click click” Sulle scatole dei take-away piu’ insetti che nei picnic (the television controller goes “click click While on the takeaway boxes There are more insects than picnics)

about

Melbourne singer/songwriter unveils his new industrial electronic rock sound with the three-track single How Long out now on Australia’s Clan Analogue label.

Dylan Beast’s sonic style is influenced by electronic rock of the 1990s and 2000s melded with the edge of modern club music styles. His songwriting explores the mental struggles of modern life and the inherent tensions of today’s technologically-mediated existence. Following on from his independently released Black Patches album of 2020, Dylan moves further into electronica with this new release on Clan Analogue.

Through a mix of industrial music, funk guitar, experimental synths and rock vocals, “How Long” talks about the need for people to fake their emotional responses throughout their lives in order to survive the pressures of our society.

"How Long” is backed with two extra tracks which build the intensity further. Perth’s Times of the Sines remix “How Long” for a high energy dancefloor vibe, granulising and resynthesizing the vocals to convey heightened alienation.

The closer track “Still in Quarantine” was created using samples recorded by Dylan in his home during lockdown, capturing the enforced introspection produced during mental and physical confinement.

about

Clan Analogue

The Clan Analogue collective was started in Sydney, Australia, in 1992 by a small group of people who were interested and active in electronic sound. Largely fuelled by the sore lack of live venues in Australia for electronic music and a lack of options for releasing recorded material, Clan Analogue was born out of necessity. ... more
