"Floating Action is the sound of the space
between worlds...it is still sunny out but you can also see the
moon."
- Jim James, My Morning
Jacket
"...gorgeous melodies and scrappily fuzzed out
tones that radiate a vinyl warmth that somehow immediately instills a
feeling of nostalgic happiness." - Sean Moeller, Daytrotter
"a folk-tinged collection of rock numbers
heralded by the single 'Not What I Came For.' This [remix] version of the
track is a redux from James himself, who has infused the song with a
spaced-out, hypnotic sensibility." - RCRD LBL
Floating Action has released a remix of the
song "Not What I Came For" by My Morning Jacket front man Jim
James. The original track comes from Floating Action's fifth
album Fake Blood, released on September 4th via
Jim James' label, Removador Recordings & Solutions (as a co-release
with Harvest Recordings in Asheville, NC).
RCRD LBL premiered the remix and are calling
this version "a redux from James himself, who has infused the
song with a spaced-out, hypnotic sensibility."
"Not What I Came For" (Jim James Remix) is available for
free download at RCRDLBL.com and on the label's site Removador.com.
Floating Action is Seth Kauffman, a red bearded
Blue Ridge mountain-biking brother who has made five records on which he
writes, records and plays all the instruments himself. The music of Floating
Action reflects the relativity and natural laws gleaned from
immersion in Kauffman's abundant outdoor activities, as well as a high
standard for originality and overall quality. Seth is a pro-level mountain
biker and snowboarder who longboards, hikes and spends way too much time on
trails in the mountains. Jim James became a fan of Seth's
previous record Desert Etiquette - an album he
calls "a relatively unknown masterwork of our times."
Floating Action has released four albums to date, two of which were
released on Park the Van Records.
