Multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter, and producer General Mack’s Grapeshot (GMG)'s debut album Revel, Revel was mixed by local producer Robert Muinos (Didirri, Julia Jacklin, Jess Locke, Nat Vazer), the two connecting over an appreciation for bold mixing selections, and was written, recorded, produced, and performed by McIvor. The album was tracked during excursions to Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula. The space, time, and seclusion allowed hours of experimentation with sounds and recording techniques. There are guitar-drenched moments, familiar with McIvor’s previous work but the accompanying rhythm section is layered with drum loops and applies synth bass and cinematic textures to several songs.
General Mack’s Grapeshot allowed Melbourne multi-instrumentalist Mitchy McIvor to deliver his long-term intention of producing his own music. Having played in numerous bands in Melbourne and LA, including Cannon and Damndogs, Mitchy McIvor drew on the familiar guitar drenched moments from his previous work to create cinematic textures with drum loops and oscillating synth bass. General Mack’s Grapeshot’s draws on dominant production techniques inspired by the works of Beck, The Kills, St Vincent, Danger Mouse, Serge Gainsbourg, and the War on Drugs.
