Mike Simonetti & Johnny Jewel
Artist Biography For Mike Simonetti & Johnny Jewel
In December 2007 We Threw A Huge Gala On A Cold & Rainy Friday Night In Portland With Chromatics & Glass Candy. Mike Came Out To Spin The Party...The After Party...And The Party After The After Party... We Spent The Next Three Days Recovering Working On A Mix & Trying To Find A Place For Mike To Lay His Weary Head. The Damp & Grey Climate Is Great If You're Writing Wipers Lyrics...But If You Left Your Prescription Asthma Medicine Albuterol In Jersey You're Pretty Much Screwed. Day 1 Mike Stays With Me At Chez Ruth / Daphne & Ruby The Sister Cats Fur All Over The Apartment Causes Mike's Asthma To Flair Up Even Worse. Day 2 We Decided To Relocate Monsieur Simonetti To Ida's Candy Castle / Marlon's The Stray Cat Tiger Stripes Almost Close Mike's Eyes Forever. Day 3 Adam & Natty Offer Him A Warm Bed...But Pimp C's The Cat Freed From A Shelter On The Same Day The UGK Poet Was Released From Prison Dander Just About Closes Mike's Windpipe. Then It Occurs To Us...There's No Cats At The Studio So We Spend Two Days & Nights Listening To Crates Of Killer Cuts From Mike's Library In New Jersey. Starting With Around 80 Songs And Slowly Narrowing It Down To 10 Traxxx That Really Complimented Each Other. Step 1 Burn All The Records To Disc Through Analog Preamps ... Step 2 Edit The Traxxx Live Using 3 Cdjs. Step 3 Take The Best Edits And Blend Them All Together In One Long Take Live To Tape. No Computers Were Harmed On The Set Of This Recording. At Italians Do It Better We Love Our Computers... But For A Mix This Dirty With Almost All Live Drummers It Just Felt Better Doing It By Hand. The End Result Runs The Gamut Of Rock Disco Proto House Boogie Swedish Glam Bizarre Italo Soul & Some Odd Things In Between. Not To Mention The Entire Mix Is Slightly Pitched Down. Most Likely Due To Exhaustion & Mike's Almost Comatose State. It Just Sounded Heavier This Way. The Weekend Came & Went & It Was Time For Mike To Fly Home... On Our Way To The Airport Ida Chased A Fed Ex Truck Down Hawthorne. Just In Time For The Flight The Albuterol Finally Came. Mike Took It & All Was Well. There Was So Much Confusion That Weekend I Forgot To Label The Tape. It Got Lost In The Shuffle. Tours Came & Went. New Records Were Being Made & We Forgot About It. Five Months Later Mike Found A Rough Mix Of It On His IPod & Ripped A Really Lo-Fi Version For The Blog. The Mix Exploded 20 000 Downloads & Counting But No One Could Guess The Full Tracklist. A Couple Of Months Ago We Started Perseo & Around That Time I Found The Original Mix In Portland. Here It Is...The Way It Was Meant To Be Heard. Fully Remastered Back Through Tubes. *from The Italians Do It Better Store Website
