(Photo by Natasha Ryan)One of the highlights of the recent Dark Was The Night compilation was "Knotty Pine," a collaboration between Dirty Projectors and David Byrne. Turns out those two wickedly talented Davids recorded a second collab that didn't make it on to the compilation: "Ambulance Man." Somehow, the fine folks over at Stereogum got their hands on it and were nice enough to share. "Ambulance Man" is more subdued and contemplative than "Knotty Pine"and could have easily fit onto the Dirty Projectors' brilliant new album, Bitte Orca. The presence of David Byrne, as iconic as he is, barely stands out which only proves how fated this pairing had to be. Dirty Projectors are shaping up to be the modern day Talking Heads, and between the aforementioned Bitte Orca, these tracks with David Byrne and Angel Deradoorian's excellent Mind Raft EP, 2009 could very well be the Dirty Projectors' year.
