B1. Rain
B2. Together (Suzanne Kraft Remix)



Newly born, Retiree, recently kicked its way through the musical birth sac and into Sydney’s live scene, with a spate of vitalising performances. The four mammals who take stage, Tori Holleman, Ryan Powderly, Marco Vella and Matt Crowley have shimmied their road cases through many tight stage doors over the last twelve months, consistently presenting an evolving repertoire of artful tracks to thirsty ears. The band’s well-arranged melodies and ideas are translated by a variety of instruments both electronic and acoustic, and are importantly not lost during performance. Among those recently engaged were founders of Sydney’s burgeoning Plastic World label - swiftly leading to a Retiree’s very first EP to be released early in December. Dance record commissars, Suzanne Kraft (Running Back Records) and Andras Fox (Home Loan Records), have leapt with uncommon keenness at the offer to remix the single from the upcoming 12″ release. It is likely then that the EP will give listeners a refreshing emulsion of dance floor cadence and tempered vibrancy - something not seen all that often on debut releases.
