Tina Dico: Break of Day
It could well be that everyone went ga ga over Tina’s album In The Red. I did. But before that were two previous albums: 2001’s Fuel and Notes, which followed two years later, both released on her Finest Gramophone record label. These are now available on iTunes UK.
Break of Day comes from Notes, and is built on the simplest one note bass, to point out the chords, accompanied by meandering, minimal, percussive guitar. This mood changes towards the climax of the song, when acoustic guitar is added, and Tina’s backing vocals come in. The overall feel is that of organic intelligent dance music. It’s magnificent.
