Daniel Avery - Lone Swordsman

[@danielmarkavery]

Thank you to everyone for the love you have shown Lone Swordsman so far. I can finally tell you that the record will be out on a limited run of vinyl early 2021 backed with new track Petrol Blue and artwork by Keffer. As with everything at the moment, exact dates are proving hard to confirm but as so many people have asked about the 12” we are taking pre-orders now. We hope to have it out in January. As with the digital release, all proceeds from Bandcamp will be donated to Amnesty International in memory of our friend Andrew: smarturl.it/DA_DFS Cheers to BBC Radio 6 Music for putting it on their A-list this week. It’s going to be stuck inside your skulls for a while yet. Love to you all. Daniel x

[@local_celebrity]

Beautiful track, Daniel. A fitting tribute to the incomparable Mr.W

[@SteveHotline]

This is one of my favourite songs, the atmosphere is really nice! Sorry if this is annoying, but do you mind if I use it in an animation?

[@freehoob]

Absolutely beautiful. Such an immense and fitting tribute.

[@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisor]

@@SteveHotline im sure they wouldn't mind but give credit to the original makers of whatever media you use x

[@davidenglish1321]

Mate this is an amazing tune..PROPER rushy trust me I know \😑/

[@mapuppa]

I’ve been listening to electronic music since 1988, and I have to say, this is one of the finest tracks I have ever heard 👍

[@stephenmitchell3101]

Have you listened to electronic music before then though? Regardless?

[@ianbuick1332]

Once again I salute you 6 music for bringing me here

[@annemariemcg]

The same! Just been played on the breakfast show and I needed to know who the artist was. Beautiful track.

[@TheColinniloc1]

I Shazam’d it after hearing it on 6 music. What a wonderful piece of music, love it !

[@davidenglish1321]

When do they play stuff like this on there?? Thanks

[@ianbuick1332]

@@davidenglish1321 Its about as eclectic as I've ever found. 6 music has exposed me to so many good artists

[@emirlanzhakshybaev3248]

this track is unbelievable

[@ilikenaps312]

Something in this tune speaks to my soul, there's a lot of beautiful new tracks in my playlist today however I keep coming back to play this one over and over. Weird how music can speak to you without it needing to have words in it.

[@ryanx3584]

Even more weird the fact that is evokes an emotional response when it's made on computers and bits of techy equipment. B o n k e r s.

[@leahfarrell352]

Jim Morrison predicted that this would happen in the future and he was right ✌️

[@psyhead334]

There are a few tracks that bring a smile to my face the moment it starts playing.This is one of them.Thank you Dan for this gem.

[@hikaridev6706]

Hi, Amal. Please recommend some others)

[@gorillafilmmakernow]

Never heard of either Daniel or the man this track pays tribute to but I can feel the pain, loss and hope all wrapped up in these absolutely sublime frequencies. Thank you Daniel and 6 music 🎶

[@Zzyyxx22]

Andy Weatherall was hugely influential. You should take Sabres of Paradise's "Haunted Dancehall" for a spin... that and everything else he touched.

[@gorillafilmmakernow]

@@Zzyyxx22 thanks, turns out I have listened to many of his works, just never pinned it to a name.

[@Rex-dk1rx]

He was Sabres of paradise. Plus he was appart of a duo called 2 lone swords man. I was lucky to get to see him DJ back in the day. He was a great producer and DJ he used to be a resident at a night in Leeds called Back to Basics big club in Leeds at the time

[@lukealexander6233]

If shoegaze is your thing too, he also did a wonderful remix of MBV’s Soon

[@waj1975]

Reminds me a lot of early 90’s ambient techno production in a good way. RIP The Guvnor

[@robflysshorts8126]

Great tribute - the guvnor would be proud.... fail we may, sail we must.

[@Indianicsounds]

Absolutely loving this tune and very fitting for the passing of Mr Weatherall, I used to listen to a lot of his work back in the early 90's with the orb and sabres of paradise.

[@timsmedtv]

Beautiful, euphoric, sad, reminds me of the best times I ever had x

[@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisor]

We can all relate No cares. Brothers together. Friends everywhere. Younger. More energy. Less pissed at the world. Getting old is a fkn chore i can be doing without

[@whoaretheytojudgeus]

@@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisor I (fortunately) am at the relatively young age of 23, and I feel like I am still making great memories from nights out and raves etc. and I'm trying my best to make the most of it :) Edit: I use this channel to share music videos that I've made for some of my favourite songs - Daniel Avery has featured on my channel multiple times now as his music is so good!

[@romanianlovechild]

That Moment that all your life Musical Goals come together at once..❤ Daniel Avery & Andrew Weatherall I salute you both.. Thanks for the love and Musical Passion that you give and gave us all x

[@seancreed5975]

A fine tribute to the chairman of the board , Daniel ⚔

[@strobeant144]

As a Bournemouth boy, you might be interested to know that this track takes me right back to memories of DJing in Madisons when you were around 8 years old! You capture that atmosphere with this track like a true veteran. I absolutely love it, as would Mr Weatherall.

[@kimspiers1972]

this is an awesome comment ahah

[@sixteenthlevel3414]

A sound for one million hearts

[@perdikisn]

the best electronic sound of 2022

[@Sim-ig9zm]

Back here again. Time and time again. I never had the privilege to know the man but I knew his music and since he left, he lives on in this piece as much as any of his own. This is astoundingly magnificent. Thank you.

[@Jobby1975]

This is beautiful. Makes my eyes fill every play. Sorry for your loss. Thank you for something beautiful.

[@a_handle123]

this is one of the saddest and most beautiful tunes I've ever heard - it sound like a little electronic chicken pecking away at darkness and doubt all by itself. I love that chicken and would take care of it for life. x

[@santiagopuigdelabellacasa1876]

Totally agree!

[@josefcross5955]

Spot on, I love your soul.

[@uicukie]

I wouldn’t call it sad, I’d call it melancholic

[@leahfarrell352]

What a beautiful comment 💎💞

[@dontnoable]

Is the chicken the snare or the fast synth melody?

[@pegasvsmusic]

rip andrew ... we lost so many heroes this year :/

[@richardcoultous7663]

Beautifull track which I have jus stumbled upon … Would be great with a drone flying high over a wooded area and then dropping , skimming along a beach as the sun rose for a new day ..👍👍👍😀

[@stillpointyogalondon]

I honestly haven't heard a better electronic record this year. A stunning tribute to Weatherall! I get shivers each time I hear it, like it's echoing far back to a time when the Sabresonic dancefloor was sweaty and moving to beats that will change lives forever....

[@michaelbennett6925]

This is perfection

[@adamsweet7648]

sad and uplifing, something about this hits deep im my soul. Always alone, but sometimes at my happiest when i am.

[@paulphoenix1669]

Dunno what it is about this track but I'm almost moved to tears everytime I hear it. It's a reminder of all things good in the world, to persevere through all the hardship ❤ It does alll that without any lyrics (obviously). Love you Daniel ❤❤❤

[@fyodoreden]

Just discovered, this is stunning. I struggled with his passing, went and got an alfos tattoo and the lot, this has hit me. X

[@manicpanic4486]

So 90s...so damn awesome, thanks again BBC Radio 6

[@davidwishart1429]

this made me ache...beautiful...thank you

[@TempleOfTheMartyrs]

same with me ;)

[@aidyshaw7711]

God, this gives me the feels. The day he died, my friend who owns a bar (remember them?) just played Andy's music, all night, and I loved it, because he was loved, and this track is clearly coming from that fierce love we had for the man.

[@Mosneig]

This is the main theme of the movie I want to live in

[@SunnyvaleTrailerParkSupervisor]

What movie?

[@Toby761]

This song is honestly amazing. Gives me the shivers everytime I hear it. Thank you for making this 💜

This is a beautiful record and a fitting tribute to the Master from the Apprentice - Daniel Avery is a flame carrier for The Guvnor - we miss him everyday xxx
