Duo 505 – Walzer Oder Nicht

Oars video for “Karats” made from newspapers, old maps, twigs and a lot of ingenuity.

In the spring of 2008, the unassuming duo Oars (David Bratton and Earl Muehlenbach) began an intensive six months of recording, song crafting and experimentation in a closet-sized Greenpoint studio across the street from a fish-smoking plant. Relying on Bratton’s perfectionistic ear for melody and orchestration and Muehlenbach’s lyrics and sharp production skills, they composed meticulously. The resulting self-titled album seamlessly weaves cunning pop melodies with cascades of home-grown beats,…
