about

"Traditionally unpredictable and commonly MIA, Cape Town-based experimental post-rock artist Her Stems Spiral is back yet again with another weird and wonderful stand-alone single, titled "Sobbed The Swaying Spirit, 'May I Have This Last Dance?'", representing a similarly nostalgic, instrumental math-rock yearning akin to 2014's arguably underproduced, yet ambitious 'Lights Drip' EP. Ripe with abstract, energetic guitar lines, complimentary basslines, concise, percussive and complex programmed drum patterns, "Sobbed The Swaying Spirit, 'May I Have This Last Dance?'" in all its glittering mesmer could quite possibly be a glimpse into the unforeseeable future.. the recollection of an untold dream.. or simply, just a mysterious path to nowhere. Nevertheless, Her Stems Spiral always manages to open new doors with creativity and undeniable imagination." - MoonSwing Netlabel

NOTES: This was originally recorded some time ago, but unfortunately, due to a recent hard drive failure (as previously mentioned) I lost all necessary assets required to properly produce, mix and master this, along with many other tracks I had recorded and lost during this time. Eventually, I managed to recover an mp3 version of this track for my own reference purposes and of course, unavoidable turmoil - which is what you are hearing now. So although I do apologise for the unintentional chaos; I do however recommend listening to this with headphones to capture the closest possible essence of what I attempted to achieve.

So I thought I would release a 'lil something for my 29th birthday. I hope you enjoy - and more to come, always! Thank you with all my heart to anyone listening! <3
