about

Written in a van while driving from one gig to another, the songs of J.D.Hangover are located in no particular place or time. Dealing with the lack of trust in the music business, Stiv Cantarelli and Roberto Villa reacted following different paths. Roberto, he built by scratch L’Amor Mio Non Muore , an all analog studio in his Italian hometown. No computer allowed, just tapes recorders, ribbon microphones and spring reverbs.

Stiv, he sat in a room with an old friend, his ’72 Roland TR77 electronic drummer and a 4 tracks cassette recorder. While playing music, listening to Alan Vega and Lightnin’Hopkins he created a sort of non-persona, an alter ego called James Dean Hangover. A man with no birthplace and no country, who didn’t have ties with anyone but the true spirit of his songs.

The idea was to put some music, as raw as it was recorded, on some cd copy to give away hidden between free press magazines in pubs and clubs or just handed to the people for free at some Underground Station, like the NME.

But the plan failed as fellas at Annibale Records (The Shivas, The Abigails, Kim and The Created) after put their hands on it by chance also wanted to put their name on it. So Stiv teamed up again with Roberto to put on a 1 inch tape what originally was on a cassette.

“We wanted to recreate the same atmosphere of being in one room with all the gear and play live. So we put a 50’s RCA microphone in between us and the tube amps that we used to amplify the instruments and the drum machine. That mic recorded the reverbs, the noises, the sights, the moving feet, the crackling chairs in the room. We mixed it with guitar feedback, tape delay and the organ fuzz tone. We played it back and we thought we nailed it.”

That collection of songs made by industrial rhythms, overwhelming blues and dark narration it would later become the J.D.Hangover E.P.
