Joy Orbison – The Shrew Would Have Cushioned The Blow
If the dark and gloomy winter mornings are getting you down then a new release by Joy Orbison on Aus Music is sure to put a wee spring in your step. “The Shrew Would Have Cushioned The Blow” wanders down familiar paths for the 22 year old Londoner with his trademark crystal clear production, warm as you like pads, haunting female vocal snippet and head nodding garagey beats. “So Derobe” on the flip adds more clunky, mechanical beats to proceedings but retains the Orbison gloss.
Once you’ve taken in all the new Orbison loveliness on the a-side, flip the 12″ over for an Actress remix of “The Shrew” which strips the track back a little, roughens it up around the edges a little and spits out a chunky slice of house.
