Life of the Record
The Making of THEY WANT MY SOUL by Spoon - featuring Britt Daniel, Jim Eno and Alex Fischel

Life of the Record

For the 10th anniversary of Spoon's 8th full-length album, They Want My Soul, we take a detailed look at how it was made. After Spoon concluded their remarkable run of records in the early 2000s with 2010's Transference, they took a much needed break. During this time, Britt Daniel formed Divine Fits with Dan Boeckner, while Jim Eno produced records for other artists. When Spoon got back together, they added new member Alex Fischel on keyboards and opted to work with producers Joe Chiccarelli and Dave Fridmann for the first time. Having that time apart gave them a new perspective on the band as they worked to expand the sound, incorporating more keyboards, hip hop and electronic influences and unique production approaches. The result was They Want My Soul, eventually released in 2014. In this episode, Britt Daniel describes how he approached songwriting for this album and how he wanted to move away from the “minimalist” label that the band had been given previously. By demoing the songs in a variety of different ways, he describes how the songs evolved in the studio and how producers Joe Chiccarelli and Dave Fridmann helped shape them. Jim Eno talks about the sense of fun that the band had with this record and how they were enjoying trying new approaches, while recommitting to making good music together. Additionally, Alex Fischel describes first being asked to join Divine Fits and how that transitioned into a role in Spoon. With Fischel brought in to the band and with Fridmann's fingerprints all over the record, they describe how the sound of this album led to the next era of Spoon. From recording in two halves and switching producers midway to Dave Fridmann's mad scientist approach to mixing to the influence of Dr. Dre's 2001 album on “Inside Out” to the spontaneous last minute recordings of “Rent I Pay” and “I Just Don't Understand,” we'll hear the stories of how the record came together.

Over the past 15 years, Dan Boeckner has become a well-known fixture of the North American indie-rock scene. As one of the main members of Wolf Parade, Operators, Divine Fits, and the now-defunct Handsome Furs, he shows no signs of slowing down with new Operators and Wolf Parade albums set for release this year. We caught up with Dan before the sold-out Operators Presents Handsome Furs show to discuss the personal and technical logistics of performing Handsome Furs material live, being bullied as a young teenager on Vancouver Island, and the surprising merits of Netflix's Riverdale and Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.

Dan Boeckner puts most indie musicians to shame as far as his energy and sheer output. The Canadian musician co-founded the pioneering indie band Wolf Parade, fronted Handsome Furs and collaborated with Spoon's Britt Daniel in Divine Fits. Now, he leads the new band Operators. The band played at OpenAir on the release day of its debut album, "Blue Wave." The record is a continuation of the synthesizer-driven sounds of Handsome Furs with contributions of drummer Sam Brown and keyboardist Devojka.

Indie icon Dan Boeckner is perhaps best known for his role in the legendary mid-2000s post-punk indie rock band Wolf Parade. Since Wolf Parade (sadly) went on hiatus, Boeckner was involved in a project called Divine Fits (with Spoon frontman Britt Daniel) and he started Handsome Furs (with his ex-wife Alexei Perry). Currently, Boeckner has a new band called Operators. Last Gang Records will release the Operators debut full length, Blue Wave, on April 1, 2016. I chatted with the entire Operators line up including Boeckner (on vocals, guitar, and synths), drummer Sam Brown (New Bomb Turks and Divine Fits) and electro-wiz Devojka. Somehow I get this trio to talk about everything including Louis CK, using sex to sell, how Dan and Sam met, being a complete dick, Dave from Japandroids, how collaboration works in Operators, and the beauty of starting over again. I think this is the only interview I've done with a group hug. You'll have to listen. Tracks played on the show... 1) Operators, "Ecstasy In My House" single (2015) 2) Operators, EP 1 (2014) "Truth" 3) Divine Fits, A Thing Called Divine Fits (2012) "Flaggin' A Ride" ** 4) Operators, EP 1 (2014) "Start Again" ALL songs CANCON except **

Part 2 of my conversation with guest Ric Dube as we travel back in time and analyze two big hits from the 1970s. I've also got the Bonehead of the Week and music from Divine Fits and The Raveonettes. Show notes: - Recorded at More Lost Time world headquarters - The return of song analysis - Learning more about Rupert Holmes - "Escape" tells a depressing tale in a lighthearted way - Seeking a new soulmate through the personal ads - Song ends with a wacky twist - Jay used to belt out Holmes' "Him" in the newsroom of the college paper - He sings the guitar solo to save money - Digging into the rest of the album - Rupert writes about anything like, say, his answering machine - Holmes did a lot of work in theater and TV - Wrote songs for "A Star is Born," the Streisand-Kristofferson movie - "Him" as performed by Barry White - Clearly inspired by Manilow - "Copacabana" was a huge disco hit - Everything was coke-fueled in the '70s and '80s - Manilow's go-to move was the sweeping ballad - Manilow's "Bermuda Triangle" was a clear inspiration for Rupert - Barry found a winning formula - Gotta love the irony that he didn't write "I Write the Songs" - We Manil-OD'd - Bonehead of the WeekMusic:Divine Fits - Would That Not Be Nice The Raveonettes - She Owns the Streets Completely Conspicuous is available through the iTunes podcast directory.
