SYMMETRY - The Hunt

As part of the limited re-release of Johnny Jewel's SYMMETRY LP The Messenger, which has less than 300 copies left to go around for a very reasonable $5, the do-everything producer/musician debuted "The Hunt." The glossy take has a complimentary visual collage from Alberto Rossini, which can be seen here.

Otherwise, listen to the new track below courtesy of Italians Do It Better, and stream last year's SYMMETRY project "Themes For An Imaginary Film."

Album Download: After Dark 2

Nearly six years after Italians Do It Better released the seminal After Dark mix, spearheading the career of Johnny Jewel - aka Mr. Chromatics - the label finally put out the much anticipated sequel. The second mix features help from Jewel's aforementioned Chromatics (three songs), Glass Candy, Mirage, Symmetry, and plenty more worth the time.

New Johnny Jewel mixtape

Every December, the pace here begins to slow down. Less and less new fun stuff seems to leak out, and instead we see more and more year-end lists. Not that that's a bad thing, because I do love my year-end lists. But until Bears and Bullets gets to its annual year-end ones, we're stuck with little to say.

Luckily, that time is very quickly approaching. Until it does, we'll do our best to provide what little seems to be out there. Today, workaholic Johnny Jewel released a brand new mixtape featuring work from his collective Chromatics, Glass Candy, and other projects. Also included are a few seminal cuts from Kraftwerk and Nico. You can stream it or download it below.
