Description
LP - The EP's 'Spectrum, 14th Century' & 'Plays To Please' Remastered by João Carvalho at Revolution. EPs were previously only available as limited edition 12" releases. Housed in a Gatefold Sleeve. Comes with an MP3 and WAV download card.
Domino is pleased to announce expanded, remastered reissues of Owen Pallett’s early catalogue, including albums Has A Good Home (2005) and He Poos Clouds (2006), as well as two EPs Spectrum, 14th Century and Plays to Please (both 2008) combined into one 12” full length release. These recordings have been remastered by João Carvalho at Revolution, and will be available on vinyl, and digitally as deluxe editions, with rare tracks, B-sides, music from compilations, and previously unreleased material.
Remastered versions of Has a Good Home and He Poos Clouds are available digitally now, and the EP’s, expanded catalogue and vinyl will be available everywhere February 24th 2023.
Pallett has built a reputation on live virtuosity, as violinist for the many local Toronto bands, followed by the wild looped-violin songwriting solo project. Has a Good Home serves as an introduction (and features many of Pallett’s best-known songs), and the follow-up He Poos Clouds is a string quartet album based on the Dungeons & Dragons School of Magic, and was awarded the inaugural Polaris Music Prize.
The first EP that followed, Spectrum, 14th Century, is a “prequel” to Pallett’s celebrated album Heartland, set in the same fictional world of Spectrum. Pallett: “When I realized Heartland was going to be a ‘fantasy’ album, I imagined that the Spectrum EP would serve as a map of the countryside, as one would find in the first pages of a fantasy novel.”
The second EP, Plays to Please, is Pallett’s tribute to Van Dyke Parks’ arrangement style, and is their first foray into full orchestral production. In the spirit of Nilsson Plays Newman, it is a collection of interpretations of the works of songwriter Alex Lukashevsky.
