about

Borne from a period of insomnia, The Woods’ sparse electronic re-imagining of Etta James’ anguished classic pulls you into a subconscious world, bruised vocals set adrift as the tender, floating falsetto breathlessly conveys the fragility of the 1968 original. With his production McFadzean's embryonic soundscape haunted by spectral, reversed fragments and submerged jazz Wurlitzer adds an extra edge to this captivating, unique cover.

Best partnered with a solid dose of sleepless wandering.
