Glass Animals : Un site opensource et une reprise

Le frontman des Glass Animals, Dave Bailey, continue d’enregistrer des reprises de confinement. Après avoir repris « Heart Shaped Box », il s’est dernièrement attaqué au titre « Hotline Bling » de Drake aux côtés de la chanteuse Arlo Parks.

Il a aussi repris entretemps, « Young And Beautiful » de Lana Del Rey mais aussi « Lean on Me » de Bill Withers.

Le groupe en a aussi profité pour partager un ensemble d’éléments graphiques, audio, 3D, en open source pour regarder les fans s’amuser avec.

Isolation can drive us all crazy. But, at the same time, it could be quite healthy for people’s creativity. I find creating things helps me keep my head straight. All the frustration of being locked in can be released by making something. In the modern age where literally ANYTHING is possible, that canvas is sort of so blank it can be a black hole. So the main hurdle is often finding that initial piece of inspiration, that nugget that kicks off an idea and can be built on. Sometimes its a sound, sometimes its a graphic, sometimes its a photograph, or a tiny film clip…it’s usually some kind of raw-ish material that has the capacity to be transformed, re-imagined, twisted and reshaped into something else. This site will host all GA output in its rawest forms. Bits of code from our websites, drum/synth/sfx sounds I made for our songs, layered photoshop files from covers, 3D scans of stuff from around my house used in the latest artwork (including my own head) etc etc.
Anyway – I hope it inspires someone to make something and I hope it gives someone an outlet for their confusion in this strange time. Can’t wait to see what you make. love, dave x
