Every Record I Own - Day 712: L.A. Witch Play With Fire

Here’s what I wrote about L.A. Witch for their bio in 2020:

L.A. Witch’s self-titled debut album unfurled like hazy memories of late night revelries in the city center creeping back in on a hungover Sunday morning. Guitarist/vocalist Sade Sanchez purred and crooned over jangling guitar chords, painting pictures of urban exploits, old American haunts, and private escapades with a master’s austerity. Bassist Irita Pai and drummer Ellie English polished the patina of the band’s vintage sound, adding a full-bodied thump and intoxicating swing to the album’s dusty ballads, ominous invitations, and sultry rock songs. The album had an air of effortlessness, like these songs were written into the fabric of the Western landscape by some past generation and conjured into our modern world by three powerful conduits. The band readily admits that L.A. Witch was a casual affair and that the songs came together over the course of several years. That natural flow hit a snag when the band’s popularity grew and they began touring regularly, so a new strategy became necessary for their sophomore album, the swaggering and beguiling Play With Fire.

Where L.A. Witch oozed with vibe and atmosphere, with the whole mix draped in reverb, sonically placing the band in some distant realm, broadcast across some unknown chasm of time, Play With Fire comes crashing out of the gate with a bold, brash, in-your-face rocker “Fire Starter.” The authoritative opener is a deliberate mission statement. “Play With Fire is a suggestion to make things happen,” says Sanchez. “Don’t fear mistakes or the future. Take a chance. Say and do what you really feel, even if nobody agrees with your ideas. These are feelings that have stopped me in the past. I want to inspire others to be freethinkers even if it causes a little burn.” And by that line of reasoning, “Fire Starter” becomes a call to action, an anthem against apathy. From there the album segues into the similarly bodacious rocker “Motorcycle Boy”—a feisty love song inspired by classic cinema outlaws like Mickey Rourke, Marlon Brando, and Steve McQueen. At track three we hear L.A. Witch expand into new territories as “Dark Horse” unfurls a mixture of dustbowl folk, psychedelic breakdowns, and fire-and-brimstone organ lines. And from there the band only gets more adventurous.

Between their touring schedule, studio availability, and the timeline for releasing records, L.A. Witch found themselves with only two months to do the bulk of writing for Play With Fire. They holed up for January and February, essentially self-quarantining for the writing process before March’s mandatory COVID shutdown. “As far the creative process goes, this record is a result of sheer willingness to write,” says Sanchez. “When you sit down and make things happen, they will happen, rather than waiting to be inspired.” The time constraints and focused writing sessions ultimately forced the band into new territories. “I’ve definitely learned that having restrictions forces you to think outside the box,” says Pai. “That structure really brings about creativity in an unexpected and abundant way.” While L.A. Witch isn’t looking for a total transformation, they’ve stridden boldly forward with the amped up riffs and slashing fuzz lines of “I Wanna Lose.” Even the song’s message, a celebration of defeat as a starting point for rebirth and redemption, wields a kind of gravity that feels new for the band. “Gen-Z” carries a heavy weight as well, as Sanchez ponders the rise suicide rate in a generation raised with social media between lashings of air-raid siren guitar leads. “Sexorexia” wields a fiery garage rock energy unmatched by any other moment in their catalog; “Maybe the Weather” is a minor-key country tune given the cosmic treatment of hard-tremolo keys, woozy backward slide guitar, and heady production techniques; and “True Believers” offers up a filthy noise-inflected punk scorcher. The album wraps up the “Starred,” a druggy exploration of exploratory guitar squall built on Pai’s grimy fuzz bass and English’s propulsive groove. Over the course of Play With Fire, it feels like we’ve traversed the history of American rock n’ roll from it’s rugged cross pollination of blues and country music, through the psychedelia of the ‘60s, into the early punk scene of the ‘70s, and landing at the damaged art rock of early ‘80s New York City.

Play With Fire is a bold new journey that retains L.A. Witch’s siren-song mystique, nostalgic spirit, and contemporary cool. Despite the stylistic breadth of the record, there is a unifying timbre across the album’s nine tracks, as if the trio of young musicians is bound together as a collective of old souls tapping into the sounds of their previous youth.

LA Witch Share Eerie New Single ‘Gen-Z’

Garage rock trio L.A. Witch is back today with their latest single, “Gen-Z,” which appropriately sounds like it was recorded right in their neighbor’s empty garage or hashed out in a local cave.

The reverb-heavy track is the second single off their August record, Play With Fire, and finds Ellie English, Irita Pai and Sade Sanchez dedicate some space off their nine track release to the youth.

Chainlink to Work With China’s National Blockchain Services Network

China’s Blockchain Service Network (BSN) has announced the use of Chainlink oracles. With this, the BSN is allowing enable government and enterprise data to flow across its IRITA interchain service hub.

BSN earlier tweeted its excitement over the news. The network said this represents a major boost in terms of the network’s ability to integrate decentralized applications in its ecosystem.

According to PR Newswire, the use of Chainlink will provide BSN users with the benefits of a secure and reliable service. Chainlink’s involvement will also further the network’s expansion at a global level:

“This integration of Chainlink provides BSN users additional security, reliability, and interconnectivity to help fuel even greater growth and adoption of blockchain applications in China and around the world.”

The tie-up will see Chainlink, IRITA, and SNZ Pool cooperating to the development and advancement of the BSN network.

IRITA is a consortium blockchain product on the Cosmos ecosystem. The firm describes itself as “the foundation for a new token economy.” It offers decentralized independent, parallel networks that can scale and interoperate with one another.

The IRITA service hub will facilitate BSN blockchains to receive external off-chain data through the Chainlink oracles.

While SNZ Pool will provide the node operation for lightweight and efficient data applications to run across distributed devices.

“This multi-party collaboration will enable developers who build on BSN to access high-quality data through Chainlink which will make their applications more useful and connected with the real-world.”

BSN Is the Backbone of China’s Blockchain Strategy

The BSN is made up of an alliance of Chinese government departments, banks, and technology companies.

It launched in March this year and is among the first blockchain networks to be built and maintained by a government.

Powered by Hyperledger Fabric, the basis of the network is a modular architecture. This allows participants to use existing blockchain programs, or build their own bespoke tools, all without having to design a framework from scratch.

The versatile design architecture benefits from economies of scale, with some saying the scheme will reduce blockchain development costs by as much as 80%. As such, the barrier to blockchain entry has been effectively lowered.

As well as that, Hong Wan speculates that the BSN will be a critical component of China’s central bank digital currency. Hong Wan is an Associate Professor of Industrial and Systems Engineering at North Carolina State University,

She acknowledges the popularity of WeChat Pay and AliPay. Yet she believes the BSN will be significant in challenging these payment services.

Roll out is expected to see nodes in over 200 Chinese cities by the end of 2020.

Chainlink Is the Go-To Oracle Provider

Chainlink is arguably the leading blockchain oracle network. Its technology links on-chain applications with off-chain data in a secure and highly reliable process.

The firm already has over 50 partnerships — including big players such as Google Cloud, Oracle, and Binance.

The latest announcement, with BSN, only cements Chainlink’s reputation as a project that holds the blockchain ecosystem together.
