{"product_id":"wv277","title":"Hirons - Future Perfect","description":"On her debut EP Future Perfect, British-American songwriter Jenny Hirons sings of childhood visions and capitalist superstructures, of speeding down narrow country lanes and gently disappearing into the ether like a dream fulfilled. Throughout five muted pop tracks recalling Sakamoto \u0026amp; Hosono, Bowie \u0026amp; Eno, Hirons conjures pop fantasy and confronts reality with bright-eyed steeliness.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nThe title Future Perfect refers to actions which shall be completed. Having absorbed the musical debut of Jenny Hirons, the attentive listener will have found themselves with a feeling of time well spent. Lyrical analysis being entirely optional — upon inspection a multiprismatic picture of life viewed from all points in time emerges — a child imagines adulthood, an adult returns to autonomy, a voice from another place looks back on a child's fantasies of the future. The effect of these songs is anything but ponderous, however. Hope, aspiration, overcoming are the takeaways, and musically the tone is a reflection of the artist herself — wry, cerebral, poised, entirely charming.\n\u003cbr\u003e\nHirons cites Astor Piazolla, the Beach Boys, Elliot Smith, Deerhoof, and Rachmaninoff as musical influences. (For those who don't know, Piazolla is an accordionist.) Hirons is also a deeply accomplished visual artist and designer. The product of several years of tinkering, Future Perfect is also a breakup record, an unemployment record, an uncertain future record. Having now made it out into the world, Hirons looks back to a time when “music was the economy of our hearts”, and forward to a future allowed to shape itself however it may be, “carried home in all directions.”","brand":"Hirons","offers":[{"title":"Limited Edition Black Vinyl","offer_id":48332797935874,"sku":"WV277-LIMITED-EDITION-BLACK-VINYL","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0834\/3997\/6706\/files\/wv277.jpg?v=1786671596","url":"https:\/\/3skseq-pg.myshopify.com\/products\/wv277","provider":"Western Vinyl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
