From the before times... A Stooges cover
<p>From the before times, when the world had not yet become a B-movie dystopian cyberpunk medical shit-show, there was a thing we had the privilege to perform known as playing live music. </p>
<p>This was a thing that means more to me than I can truly explain to the uninitiated. It was, if not the largest, one of the most joyous parts of my life. </p>
<p>Anyway, </p>
<p>in the before times, the Sinners spent a lot of time learning a load of <a contents="The Stooges songs" data-link-label="" data-link-type="track" href="/track/2422741/down-on-the-street-stooges-cover-feb-9-2020" target="_blank">The Stooges songs</a>, particularly Funhouse- the world’s most ferocious rock and roll record - to play at a kick-off party for a charity event that will now happen only god and the virus knows when. </p>
<p>I keep going through the tapes, remembering and reliving better times, digging for gems among the rubble of rehearsals. </p>
<p>This cover of <a contents="Down on the Street" data-link-label="" data-link-type="track" href="/track/2422741/down-on-the-street-stooges-cover-feb-9-2020" target="_blank">Down on the Street</a>, I believe to be one of those gems. </p>
<p>Keep rocking, </p>
<p>if only in your heart, for now, </p>
<p>Christian D</p>

From the factory floor!
<p>During the lockdown, since the Sinners can't rehearse, I'm finally getting down to going through rehearsal tapes, looking for anything you might wanna hear. We'll post these to "<a contents='From the Factory Floor"' data-link-label="From the Factory Floor" data-link-type="page" href="/from-the-factory-floor" target="_blank">From the Factory Floor"</a> and let you download 'em if you dare. First up is called "<a contents='Lonely No More"' data-link-label="From the Factory Floor" data-link-type="page" href="/from-the-factory-floor" target="_blank">Lonely No More"</a> one of the last things we were working on before the world went to hell. </p>
<p>It's long and slow- but with a fairly crazed intro. </p>
<p>This is the third take, and probably the Sinners at their most improvisational. The instrumental section is probably too long, but I fucking love it. I think we'd shorten considerably when we get to play it live, but then again, maybe not... </p>
<p>Hope you enjoy it! </p>
<p>~Christian</p>

<p>Posted on April 25, 2017 by AirAmbrosia </p>
<p>RadioFlag’s ‘Top 55 Song Chart’ is made possible by independent, live radio DJs from college and internet radio stations from around the globe, who use our network to promote their content. Every month our ‘Top 55′ showcases mostly ‘just released’ (and many ‘not yet released’) music, comprised mainly of new emerging bands and artists from around the world. Our ’55′ Chart is based on the number of spins Radio DJs give a particular track, and post on the ‘playlist feature’ on our App, which also allows listeners to click/buy directly. The playlist feature keeps track of ‘the most spun tracks in our network’ and these metrics are collected each month. </p>
<p>Independent radio DJs are setting music trends and have their ears tuned in to new artists, and often have their fingers on the pulse of emerging culture locally and globally. This translates into giving airplay to new music acts before anyone else. Music artists have connected online with radio DJ’s on RadioFlag and got spins that way too.</p>Thank you <a contents="RadioFlag!" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://blog.radioflag.com/articles/march-2017-%E2%80%98top-55%E2%80%B2-song-chart-radioflag-dj%E2%80%99s-gave-these-artists-the-most-spins" target="_blank">RadioFlag!</a><br><br><br>You can see the whole chart on their blog here: <p><a contents="March 2017 ‘Top 55′ Song Chart: RadioFlag DJ’s Gave These Artists the Most Spins" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://blog.radioflag.com/articles/march-2017-%E2%80%98top-55%E2%80%B2-song-chart-radioflag-dj%E2%80%99s-gave-these-artists-the-most-spins" target="_blank">March 2017 ‘Top 55′ Song Chart: RadioFlag DJ’s Gave These Artists the Most Spins</a></p><br>

new Hangovers on the way!
So- somehow we did a couple of shows with the Shake It! era Hangovers- we had been trying for awhile and it <em>finally </em>worked out.<br>That was really cool, I didn't really expect we'd be doing much else, a couple of shows, have some laughs and some good hang time. <br>Turned out to be great fun.<br>Not long after we got a call seeing if we were interested in heading to our buddy Rio's Hamilton studio <a contents="Downtown Sound-" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.downtownsoundstudio.com/" target="_blank">Downtown Sound-</a> he had some open time he was looking to fill.<br>Amazingly - the Hangovers were all into doing it. And oddly available. <br>Next question- what should we record?<br>It seemed best that come up with some new songs- and so we did. Quickly. Nothing like a little pressure to kick you into gear. <br>This Saturday we went in and bashed 'em out. Live off the floor, old school analog. The way rock and roll should be done.<br><br>We'll have 'em out for you to hear soon.<br><br>Here's a pic of his lovely old SoundTracs CM4400 in action- <br> <div class="captioned justify_center"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/131765/180f49d4adf73073558561074632d037196a8ee4/original/downtown-sound-console.jpg?0" class="size_orig justify_center border_" /><p class="caption">Downtown Sound Console</p></div>

Bucketlist Music Reviews- Rogues & Blushing Virgins
From <a contents="Bucketlist Music Reviews" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.bucketlistmusicreviews.com/christian-dearmond-helena-berlin-rogues-blushing-virgins/" target="_blank">Bucketlist Music Reviews</a><br><br>"What I really liked about this album is, how despite there only being three songs, Christian DeArmond and Helena Berlin managed to paint a dark musical canvas with tones switching up just a shade for each song as I listened through. I just don’t hear that often, or perhaps some acts may put one dark/sad song at the end of an album, ...or smack a few randomly in, making me crave more or wishing it wasn’t even included. <i>Rogues & Blushing Virgins</i>, however, was just a great ride of progression. I’ve had some dark days man, and if you have too, you’ll definitely dig this album.<br><br>Angie Radczenko, <a contents="Bucketlist Music Reviews" data-link-label="" data-link-type="url" href="http://www.bucketlistmusicreviews.com/christian-dearmond-helena-berlin-rogues-blushing-virgins/" target="_blank">Bucketlist Music Reviews</a><br><br><br><br> <p><iframe seamless="" src="https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2078979718/size=small/bgcol=ffffff/linkcol=0687f5/transparent=true/" style="border: 0; width: 100%; height: 42px;"><a data-cke-saved-href="http://christiand.bandcamp.com/album/rogues-blushing-virgins" href="http://christiand.bandcamp.com/album/rogues-blushing-virgins">Rogues &amp; Blushing Virgins by Christian DeArmond &amp; Helena Berlin</a></iframe></p>
