format: CD-EP | catalogue: sonig 48CD | year: 2005

jason forrest is back with lady fantasy, a moody and expansive new ep. the tone is set by the collaboration made with avant-garde song writer david grubbs, "the work ahead of us", a tense abstraction reminiscent of the drone-krautrock of bands such as neu and possibly even of bowie's berlin years. then the title track, "lady fantasy", hits hard, like a prog-rock fueled interstellar collision of massive synths, overdriven free-jazz/breakcore drums and cell phone bleeps. then we're back to pop music with "the lure of you", co-written with italian singer songwriter margareth kammerer, it's strangely light pop/rock feel may surprise many with its subtly and mass-market appeal. the ep ends with "sperry and foil", a song in many parts, in many different directions, like the sprawling seventies prog epics. even though the song jumps between electro, bucolic rock, and anxious digital soundscapes, it holds a somewhat sweet and nostalgic feeling leading throughout. this eventually builds into a final rocking crescendo that prepares the listener for the big rock sound to be found on jason's full-length album due in october 2005, also on sonig records. the track "sperry and foil" uses samples from the amazing "NEU! 75" album. the track is a homage to the great german band from the early seventies. all three legendary NEU! albums have been re-released by groenland records.
