LATE SLAP

by Dana Gavanski

supported by

Jazzdub57 A great album that's full of melodic, interesting pop songs. I've liked her previous albums but this is her best. More adventurous musically and very nicely produced as well. Favorite track: Singular Coincidence.

nikl_0 Got this album on pre-order having been a huge fan of Dana's previous releases. This is arguably her best work yet. It's delicate, full of muscular grooves, and has masterful songwriting. Favorite track: Song For Rachel.

LATE SLAP is Dana Gavanski's third album, recorded in Margate with Mike Lindsay (tunng, LUMP (w/ Laura Marling) during the autumn of 2023.

"This album is my take on the tension between cynicism/despair and openness/trust. It’s about tenderness in a world that’s constantly trying to desensitize us.

During the writing of this album, I changed my songwriting process and started using Logic for the first time. This helped me build little sound worlds that I wouldn't otherwise have heard just playing a guitar or the piano. I was able to loosen up and try things I may not have otherwise tried as my relationship to the guitar has mostly been quite folky in the way I play. I developed the sound and structure of the songs first, freeing up my voice, and I felt naturally more playful with it, vocally personifying different parts of my personality that may sometimes feel contradictory but in reality exist all together in a kind of strange Dana-brain party. So rather than suppressing my own neuroticism I wanted to explore what that could sound like through my voice, while also being able to then jump between different musical moods, bouncier songs sitting beside more sensual slow pop. Through these songs I was learning how to let my doubts and fears into what I was doing, to welcome them as little sprites with something to offer, rather than try to pretend that they don’t exist." - Dana Gavanski

Well, does it live up to the hype? It's okay, not as good as 'Loops' or the 'Fenella' stuff; i doubt i'll be listening to it in full very often. Her mojo is waneing in my 'umble opinion. vykr
