Kailman Legacy || 15: The Ballad of Edith Dean [Part 3]

With Love Day finally over and the summer well underway, Edith Dean has spent most of her time away from the public eye, letting her spray tan fade, but her passion for music strengthens. After her niece and nephew’s birthday party, she dreamt of city life as more glamorous but familiar to her, and she couldn’t help but wonder if it was more than just her mind’s wanderings but a prophecy for what was to come. After a quick swim, Edith Dean got dressed up and headed out to her first official meeting with Octavia to talk business. Thankfully, older sister Emily Louise was in town for work and able to be there as a soundboard for what Mrs. Moon could offer. Emily Louise didn’t climb the corporate ladder without learning to see through legalese and was more than willing to ensure her little sister got the best deal she could.

So, over brunch, the trio of women got to know one another. Emily Louise found it odd that Octavia kept her wedding ring on, but considering their separation wasn't public, it wasn't entirely out of the ordinary. Edith Dean shared her vision for her first album, which was inspired by the female country storytellers of the past, lyric-heavy and moody, with a few dance-worthy songs to keep the listener engaged. Octavia was on board with this direction, especially since the public would love to know the details of what brought her name to the headlines in the first place. Her enthusiasm for exposing her soon-to-be ex-husband was apparent, almost too much so, but the sisters went along with it for the time being. She eventually returned to her potential client, telling her she could have a gig lined up once they finalize the image they'll launch her with. They spent the rest of their brunch brainstorming, and Octavia sent their ideas to a trusted stylist.

Said stylist was already shopping around one of her favorite spots, letting her know she could pull some ideas together within the hour. So the trio finished their food and headed to Copperdale's quirky thrift shop, ThriftTea Boutique, thankfully empty of other patrons for the time being. As Edith Dean got into the different outfits, all with her signature pink, she was overjoyed at the idea of such a stunning debut in the music world and couldn't choose which was her favorite from the bunch.

The first was inspired by the vengeful woman of country music eager to key their boyfriend's car and dawn a darker look, embracing their female rage and an edger sound. It wasn't too far off Edith Dean's natural styling, making her feel powerful. The second was more of the modern, girlie aesthetic that softer female vocalists in the genre embraced, with tall, white boots lengthening her already long frame. The last was the most surprising to her. While it was within her typical color palette, it was young in a way that reminded her of her school uniform, with heart-printed tights and Mary-Jane's. She thought it would look like she was trying to play innocent as the two women across from her took it all in. Playing into her youth, while certainly tempting from a PR perspective, did make her slightly uncomfortable, especially with Thorne being twice her age. Still, Edith Dean knew she looked the part. Plenty of pictures were taken, and while she and her sister spent the afternoon together, she wondered what picture she wanted to paint upon launching her career.

I know it’s been a long time since we’ve talked, just saying hi! Anything new you’re into lately? (Hobby, music, show, etc)

hi!

oh yeah, absolutely!

so I haven’t really been watching many shows, or at least finishing them. I have started Hazbin Hotel, the 1990s X-Men series, and the live-action Avatar: the Last Airbender, as well as season 2 of Invincible, and I’ve slowly been working my way through Batman the Animated Series.

In terms of songs, some of my favorites so far (both songs that have come out this year and some that I’ve rediscovered/have especially enjoyed this year):

For Baltimore by All Time Low

Sin Eater by Penelope Scott

When the Moon Dies by VERIDIA

Superstar by Rainbow Kitten Surprise

Shop Vac by Jonathan Coulton

The Old Therebefore (acapella version) by Rachel Zegler

One Eyed Bastard by Green Day

Levitating by Dua Lipa

Bad Idea Right? by Olivia Rodrigo

Circles by I Fight Dragons

Confetti by Charlotte Cardin

You Will Know My Name by Arch Enemy

The End of the Line by Dan Bull and The Stupendium

Runaway by Lauren Babic

Bodyguard by Beyonce

also I’ve been re-listening to all of Taylor Swift’s albums and she has some really good songs that I completely forgot about!

for podcasts, I’ve mostly been listening to my weekly staples (Leaving Eden, Cult Podcast, The Newest Olympian, The Flitecast, Fansplaining, Beer With Geeks, Romancing the Pod, The Legendary Ladies Podcast, Books Unbound) but I’ve gotten into On the Bleachers, This Week in Fandom History, Tipping Pitches, Sounds Like a Cult, and Skywalk Before You Run!

Favorite books so far this year:

We Got the Beat by Jenna Miller

Annie Bot by Sierra Greer

[mmepastel]

Le nouvel album d’Emily Jane White est une splendeur, je suis tellement contente de pouvoir entendre de nouvelles chansons d’elle, enfin.

On retrouve tout ce qui fait son charme habituel, la voix, d’abord, profonde et douce, qui chante gravement, solennellement, des rythmes lancinants, parfois lourds et dramatiques, des mélodies qui restent directement.

Mais cette fois, il y a quelques claviers plus électriques, et des moments où la voix de prêtresse d’Emily Jane White se fait plus fragile, plus retenue, comme PJ Harvey jadis dans White Chalk.

J’aime particulièrement celle-ci. Il y a ce moment whitechalkien désarmant, touchant, et la chanson qui avance, avec puissance et quelques grelots sensibles. Comme si gravité et fragilité s’entrelaçaient, pour appuyer le propos global de l’album, qui est tout de même sombre puisqu’il évoque les dangers que court notre monde fermé comme sous une cloche de technologie, qui nous fait perdre le lien avec la nature.

Emily Jane White interroge l’époque, et déclare son envie de retrouver le goût de la pluie, de l’organique. Ce faisant, comme une fée, elle saupoudre ses chansons habitées d’étincelles poétiques, de chœurs aériens, de bruit de pluie, de chants d’oiseaux... c’est terriblement beau.

Unreleased Projects: Jane Brooks Project

""Up until the most recent decades, female songwriters were much like females of any other profession; either nonexistent or relegated to the ranks of eternal subordination. One such female was a woman by the name of Jane Brooks, born in Somerset, England in 1922 and raised in a war-ridden America. The young Ms.Brooks was a songsmith of unparalleled eloquence, wit, and style, though it is questionable whether her songs were ever performed outside of the parlors and intimate lounges of the 1940s and early 50s. In any case, they were certainly never recorded.

But all of that changed when, in early 2003, a group of young American musicians went on an excursion to a local antique shop. They stumbled upon a dog-eared volume containing hundreds of pages of decomposing sheet music, accompanied by several black and white photographs of a striking young woman. Intrigued, research commenced, the woman's identity revealed, her authorship of the songs confirmed, and the sheet music restored to legible condition. The Jane Brooks Project was born.

It is felt that the songs of Jane Brooks could have ranked among the standards of the day had they only enjoyed the same attention given to Jane's male contemporaries. The Jane Brooks project has made it their mission to give Ms.Brooks her rightful place in history. To this end, they are currently in the studio recording the first of several Jane Brooks albums, appropriately entitled, "The Jane Brooks Songbook, Volume I."

*special note: The above story is a fairy tale, for your entertainment and ours, but the fact of the matter is, the Jane Brooks songs are written entirely by Emilie Autumn, while channeling the musical styles of the 40s. "Jane Brooks" is one of EA's many alter-egos. "

Nouvel album d’Emily Jane White qui nous prévient d’emblée : « I don’t believe in blind divinity » dans la chanson intense et prémonitoire Show me the war. Batterie lourde, mélodie et chant mélodieux et assez graves, assez low. Très beau.

Guitares lumineuses et chant plus aigu pour la suivante, batterie claire, morceau apparemment plus léger. La mélodie plus complexe qu’il n’y parait et les claviers de Crepuscule font inévitablement penser à Desintegration de The Cure, et ce n’est pas un mauvais souvenir pour moi.

Batterie martiale encore, théâtrale, dans ce troisième morceau, avec clavecin. Ici c’est sombre, assurément. J’aime énormément la dramaturgie du morceau qui alterne lourdeurs (poignantes) et envolées (lyriques), j’adore même. C’est pour moi la signature de l’écriture d’EJW. Chœurs aériens et vaporeux.

Dream pop assombrie de guitares graves pour le 4e morceau. Batterie toute légère et mutine. Envolées aériennes, paroles que je devine graves. Encore une fois, jeu de contrastes, ombre et lumière.

Piano et chant doux pour cette 5e chanson, avec clavier répétitif et rythmique qui vient tout envelopper. Batterie lourde (je me souviens en concert comme elle battait dans mes tripes). Refrain léger, chœurs célestes, claviers nuancés, chanson qui vient se frayer un chemin intérieur. Très réussi.

Claviers entre Beach House et The Cure, chant détaché, inhabituel. On entend toute la beauté du timbre d’Emily Jane, profond, sensible et comme soufflé. Des nuances déployées dans la voix, appuyées d’une guitare délicate.

Septième morceau, rythmé au clavier, batterie un peu plus distante, synthés plus vaporeux, plus présents, chanson plus diffuse, avec un petit côté Weyes Blood, et des guitares qui viennent marteler tout ça.

Dénuement pour ce huitième morceau ? Piano, chant. Puis viennent les chœurs et les guitares. Qui m’évoquent son album tant aimé Victorian America. Une composition plus classique, pour qui connaît son précédent travail. Le bulldozer avance en fausse douceur et emporte nos émotions.

Harmonie folk vite durcie par riffs musclés, batterie qui avance, interrompue par piano et chant dénudés. Le souffle toujours. Puis, le tonnerre ? On dirait que les éléments se déchaînent dans ce morceau. Soufflent le chaud et le froid.

Mélodie façon ritournelle qui arrive et qui impose son tempo. Les guitares grondent au loin, mais le piano domine avec sensibilité le tout. Passage qui mêle piano nu et guitares rêches. Et le vent souffle au fond.

Dernier morceau, avec tonalité western. Emily Jane White chante entre les assauts de guitares et de batterie. Beaucoup d’ampleur dans cette chanson, de pistes déployées, frissons assurés.

Un superbe album, en résumé.
