How Garbo Died - Newton's Third

from Kowalskiy's Free Monthly Scottish EP #11 by Kowalskiy

about

A huge thanks to Kevin Gilday and Robbi Pinkerton a.k.a. How Garbo Died (www.myspace.com/howgarbodied) for this track. A tale so bold, soaps won't even go there! They have 4 'batches' of songs up on their bandcamp (howgarbodied.bandcamp.com) for free download if you like what you hear here.

"Newton's Third originally appeared on the second of our home recorded batches (all available free at howgarbodied.bandcamp.com) and is actually part of a four song story cycle that appears over the first four batches (I'm not going to reveal what the other tracks are, I'll leave it for further investigation). The story concerns the love affair between a 14 year old schoolgirl and a 23 year old down syndrome sufferer. It's not exactly standard source material but I feel we've managed to bring out the beauty and the drama in the story as well as representing the specific characters without trivialising them. This version of the track was recorded at the start of March at Greendoor Studios, it allowed us to really build some textures into the song while maintaining the 'rough around the edges' feel that the subject matter requires." - Kevin Gilday (How Garbo Dies)

about

Kowalskiy Glasgow

Kowalskiy was called a lot of things, including an "esteemed" and "cult" Scottish music blogger "virtuoso". I might have announced my sudden retirement from blogging in early 2013, but I leave you with 30 free EPs featuring more than 150 brilliant Scottish bands to remember me by.

Thanks to everyone who contributed, and everyone who downloaded one of these EPs.

All the best folks,

David x
