Tom Lanyon discusses he collaboration with Gab from Japanese Wallpaper on Loner Blood, “Feels like Gab and I have been involved in each-other’s music for forever. I am a cross-eyed fan of his music, his attitude and him. Since covering his beautiful song Arrival for his deluxe re-issue of his debut EP, I always had my fingers crossed that maybe one day he could return the favour. I’m in love with his version of Loner Blood. It swells and cracks and sounds almost precious to me. I guess that’s ‘cause it really truly is. I have to pinch myself sometimes, that this EP actually exists.”
While Gab from Japanese Wallpaper adds, “Ceres are my favourite band in the world and their music has helped me through so much, so getting to remix Loner Blood was a massive honour. I love the original version of this song so much so I tried to tread lightly around the original arrangement and Tom’s beautiful vocal rather than reinventing the wheel here.”
