Purple Onion - Ding Dang
Listen now
Description
Ding Dang is a forceful number, both in terms of music and lyrics. We speak with bassist Alex Dalasio about the musicality of the tune, and what makes it memorable, as well as unpacking the lyrics, which are meant to provoke, and perhaps even make us uncomfortable, but there's a lesson to be learned and a resonant, timeless message. We get to the heart of the matter and solve all of the world's problems. Just another day at the office in Primus Tracks Towers! Find Alex's musical efforts under the name Psychedelic Waves on Bandcamp and Spotify.  Get involved: Instagram Facebook Email Burn your money
