May 4, 2010

This debuts our exclusive web single series. What better way to start than with an epic song from TDOA fave, Bolywool. Featured earlier this year , we were thrilled when the band agreed to help us debut this series. This song will be available to download for free for the next two weeks before it is released for sale by the band. Download, share, enjoy!

The Dial by Bolywool

Here is a quick description of the genesis of the song, from the band: “We basically started out with just a few tones and a drum loop. We wanted to make something epic, like a soundtrack to a documentary on National Geographic and yet with a lo-fi aesthetic feel to it. It was recorded at various locations (i.e. our cramped flats) in Stockholm during the drizzliest time of year and this certainly gave a feel to the song. The title and the lyrics were inspired by the transcendentalist journal The Dial. “dial your own eternity”… might have been Emerson. Anyway, it’s just a really beautiful stanza oozing with the the sense of something epic…”

Epic and truly one of the best songs we’ve heard this year. Listen and see if you agree.
