“A satirical prod at our current neoliberalist thinking, (it’s) a gentle reminder that community will always trump capitalism, and that all that matters in the end is love,” Gwenno has said of the new single.
N.Y.C.A.W is the latest single from Gwenno’s new album Tresor, which was released last Friday.
“We took a trip to Berlin to work with our good friend Steve Glashier, to celebrate the tradition of protest and as an homage to the brilliant ‘Fideo 9’ TV series which took Welsh language bands to Europe to film pop videos in the 90s,” she’s added on the video.
Tresor was praised for being a, ‘layered, nuanced record which melds the old, the new and the strange’, by Live4ever in our 8/10 review:
“Given its many unique facets determining soundalikes for, Tresor is a lost cause, but as it journeys onward the unlikely emerging influence the similarly arcane (and obtuse) hauntology mavens Boards Of Canada presents itself in the reedy synths of Kan Me, spectres that return on Keltek’s dream washed soundscapes, closer ‘Porth la’s gentle reel and Tonnow’s rainbow-tinted abstractions.”
