Swan Lake Enemy Mine SWAN LAKE ENEMY MINE Swan Lake is the musical group featuring celebrated songwriter-mystics Daniel Bejar (of Destroyer Spanish Gold, 2044 and New Pornographers), Spencer Krug (of Sunset Rubdown and Wolf Parade) and Carey Mercer (of Paper Lace Frog Eyes and Blackout Beach). Heartswarm Settle On Your Skin Together they recorded Enemy Mine, their nine-song second album, in Victoria, British Columbia, in early 2008, a little more than a year after the release of their well-received debut collaboration, Beast Ballad Of A Swan Lake, Moans, also on Jagjaguwar. Or, Daniel’s Song Peace While their debut album was a beautifully-weaved mash-up of their disparate song-writing styles, Spider often with layer upon layer of various melodies and stylistics thrown into a collaborative cauldron to A Hand At Dusk magical, and at times discordant effect, their second album Enemy Mine reflects a more stripped- Warlock Psychologist down, more deliberate approach to collaboration. It’s as if they really tried to just make nice songs together. To quote Krug,“There’s architecture here.” Not that the lyric is about collaboration—it fits nicely though. It is the band’s contention that this is the first known use of a “court painting” as a record cover used in popular music. As a result of this enthusiasm, the band had planned on calling the album Before the Law, a beloved Kafka parable and a reference to this court painting. However, the band is tired of being tagged as “literary”,so they dubbed the record Enemy Mine, a beloved movie from Bejar’s youth, and a good metaphor for collaboration.

  • Sunset Rubdown Random Spirit Lover
    SUNSET RUBDOWN RANDOM SPIRIT LOVER The Mending Of The Gown The woven lyrics and singular songwriting style heard in Sunset Rubdown invoke a mythological Magic Vs. Midas world, where magical narratives and tiny metaphors give shape to ordinary objects in the room; Up On Your Leopard, Upon The End sometimes beautiful, sometimes beastly. The moniker was first born to bear the solo bedroom Of Your Feral Days recordings of Spencer Krug, but has since evolved into a full-fledged band, involving the vital The Courtesan Has Sung contributions of fellow Montreal residents Jordan Robson Cramer, Michael Doerksen, and Camilla Wynne Ingr. Winged/Wicked Things Colt Stands Up, Grows Horns Now enter Sunset Rubdown’s third full-length record, Random Spirit Lover, featuring twelve songs Stallion that bleed in and out of each other, mixing portents with theatrics, confusions with conversions. For The Pier (And Dead Shimmering) The dark glamour of the music beneath the half-baked revelations in rhyme creates a tone of high The Taming Of The Hands That drama, blown-out and overt, but the stage is wild and the roles aren’t clear, so the sincerity of the Came Back To Life work and the spontaneity of the recordings can’t help but shine through the formality of structure. In short, listening to Random Spirit Lover is like watching schoolchildren in a dress rehearsal for the Setting Vs. Rising annual Easter play. And though they aren’t old enough to know the occasion is anything more than Trumpet, Trumpet, Toot! Toot! pastel-painted eggs and edible bunnies, they wear the fake beards with confidence and style.

  • Dan Bejar on Having No Process
    November 20, 2017 - As told to T. Cole Rachel, 2217 words. Tags: Music, Process, Collaboration, Success, Anxiety, Inspiration. Dan Bejar on having no process There’s a quote from you: “I’m lazy. I have no work ethic. Music just descends on me. The song kind of wafts by and I walk into it.” It’s a nice way to describe the mystery of the creative process. Though, for someone who’s recorded well over 20 albums over the past two decades, you do seem to have a fairly strong work ethic. Maybe I do. I think I write more than a lot of people without actually realizing it. My mind is always blown when people take six or seven years between albums. I’m just like, “Woah, what do you do with your time?” [laughs] I think I do have a work ethic when it comes to being in the studio, because to me the music part of things—coming up with a song, coming up with a bunch of words that truss together nicely and have some kind of melodic phrase that feels natural and memorable—has always seemed more mysterious and not like work somehow. But the studio is like a battle. The studio is like a war. Records certainly haven’t gotten easier to make over time. I think about writers who are kind of like poets, people who will sit down and write endlessly and then overwrite and whittle things down and edit and edit, basically carving away at ideas in an attempt to get to what is essential in their words.
