To score one brilliant mp3 promo is a coup, two is the stuff of legend. As legend would have it ‘Hold On’ and ‘Maladies’ arrived in my inbox yesterday morning from the Secretly Canadian label. Both are taken from Windsor For The Derby’s upcoming release ‘How We Lost’ and if they end being a fair representation of the standard of tuneage on offer it is going to be some record. Windsor For The Derby have been knocking around for well over a decade, barely scratching interest except for a plumb spot on the Maria Antoinette soundtrack a couple of years ago. These primer’s point to a more focused direction with their drawn out instrumental passages being replaced by tighter melodies. While I was happy with their previous incarnation these newbies signal Windsor For The Derby’s intention to give up their day jobs. KD
