New mini-LP from Al Bairre
A new mini LP, entitled 'Experience The Al Bairre Show With Al Bairre Experience', has been released by Al Bairre.
The mini LP was written over a period of three years and also includes older Al Bairre songs that have been re-recorded to improve their quality. The new tracks were written and recorded over the last year. The band recorded at Digital Forest Studios in Cape Town and the mini LP was produced by Francois de Klerk, who also played a major role in the recording process and mixing of the tracks.
For the mini LP, the band took all their signature musical elements to the next level and it features large drums, more strings, more harmonies, dirty bass lines, stinky guitars and grooves that will make you twist your ankle in a good way.
"Recording our songs super nicely just wasn't very high on our list of things we were gonna do when we first started the band for some reason. But then people ended up really liking the songs so we thought we better pull our heads out our butts and go into a proper studio where you have couches and coffee and Xbox and a dog and all those fancy studio things and do it properly."
You can buy the mini LP on iTunes.
Music video
Al Bairre has also recently released a brand new single from the mini LP, entitled Let's Fall In Love Some More as well as the music video for the single.
"The song is about being in love with unhealthy relationships or emotional abuse."
Produced by Luke Nelson, directed by Nicholas Preen and with Tao Farren Hefer as cinematographer, the video was shot in a studio as well as a lot of different serene locations in and amongst beautiful Cape Town over the course of two days.
The band describes the video as a visually pleasing, aesthetic-based video making use of a lot of colour and personality which was the focus they wanted to bring forward and highlight.
