Economy Wolf
comprises 5 musicians from London and Paris. They bonded
over a shared love of computer game music, French pop and very vast
spaces, fascinated in what would happen if these disparate influences
were brought together under a haze of droning guitars and feral
analogues.
In the summer of 2006 they began writing and recording their debut
album, to be released later in the year.
"Theme For Yellow Kudra" is the first
release from those sessions and
tells the allegorical tale of Yellow Kudra who, after an epic struggle
against a mecha-snake in the underworld, returns to life as
half-ghost/half-human with extraordinary powers.
The single is accompanied by a video made by award-winning experimental
filmmaker Max Hattler
(www.maxhattler.com/yellowkudra) and features the
contemporary dance of Johannes Ender in a forest in Bavaria. It is
currently
play-listed on MTV2.
On the B side, the Great Findlay Brown reinterprets
the tale of Yellow
Kudra in his inimitable folk-style.
Economy Wolf are: James Wignall (guitar, vocals), Ben
Cave (analogues,
effects, vocals), Jean-Gabriel Becker (keyboards,
effects, vocals), Nick
Dover (bass), Marc Raue (drums)
