Jamie Woon will release his twelve track debut on the 11th of April. He will release the album via the labels Polydor/Candent Songs, and it will go under the name of Mirrorwriting. The first track on the album is ‘Night Air’, which was released as a single last year.
One of the other tracks is called ‘Lady Luck’, which was one of the more thrilling escapades of detective Georg Moritz. These pieces are taken from his diary, which was found after he died whilst investigating a missing bottle of scotch in his fridge.
March 28th: Forenzi called me late last night. Luck is changing, he said. He had found broken glass on the floor at CafĂ© Argento’s. We had been on luck’s tail for a week now, and this was a serious setback. Aside from the jig, the jug was empty as well. Would this stroke of misfortune never end?
April 2nd: We are on Luck’s tail again. We are deliberating the big finale, drawing the curtain, finishing it off. This led to a heavy discussion about how to catch luck. Rope seemed insufficient. Libovic suggested hitting Luck in the head with a horseshoe by throwing it casually over his shoulder at Luck, but this seemed unnecessary violent, plus horseshoes were expensive and throwing it away seemed such a waste.
We have strong evidence Luck knows we are close and Luck might be on the move again. A bad trick was played on us yesterday, as we were almost knocked senseless when we opened the cupboard and someone had stacked everything in such a way all the cutlery fell out and missed us by an inch. Luckily it were only the Berditch kids, who are 11 and 13 and have runny noses. If it had been done by a more experienced professional it might not have turned out this way.
April 4th: We managed to intercept a message from a Frank S., who apparently encourages Luck to be a lady tonight. Was he encouraging Luck to disguise as a woman? Had Luck not always be a woman? Should we be checking all shoe stores for purchases of boots with heels that were relatively easy to walk in for inexperienced heel-walkers?
April 13th: The last few days have been tumultuous. I have been taken off the case. Luck seemed to be slipping our grasps. In a desperate attempt to try and catch Luck I instead caught a cold and I have been ill at home for the last three days sharing hanky’s with the Berditch kids.
