At the same time definite and a ghostly impression, Antonymes floats free of fixed points while anxiously staying in sight of genres, movements, scenes, connections, contexts and innovations that have piled up and broken down around it. <strong><a title="Facebook" href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Antonymes/108567235841143?fref=ts" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-8763" src="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Facebook.png" alt="Facebook" width="26" height="20" /></a>  <a title="Twitter" href="https://twitter.com/Antonymes" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-8766" src="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Twitter.png" alt="Twitter" width="26" height="20" /></a>  <a title="SoundCloud" href="https://soundcloud.com/antonymes" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-8764" src="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/SoundCloud.png" alt="SoundCloud" width="26" height="20" /></a>  <a title="Website" href="http://www.antonymes.co.uk/" target="_blank"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-8767" src="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Website.png" alt="Website" width="26" height="20" /></a> </strong>[/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider admin_label="Divider" color="#ffffff" show_divider="off" /][et_pb_tabs admin_label="Artist Tabs"][et_pb_tab title="Discography"]<h3>Discography</h3><div> </div><div> Les Limbes self-titled debut EP will be released on 5th May 2015 with a single preceding it in March.</div>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title="Bio"]<h3>Biography</h3><p>Antonymes is designer, photographer, conceptualist and musician Ian M. Hazeldine, making music from the wilds of North Wales, a very strange, fantastic, ultimately unreal place of mountains, streams, woods, villages and obscure wilderness. To quote North Welsh poet R. S. Thomas, “to live in Wales is to be conscious at dusk of the spilled blood that went into the making of the wild sky, dyeing the wild rivers in all their courses.” His music begins at the piano, where notes, space and intention combine over time, until a shape appears. This shape is taken into the computer, where it is twisted, gently, and given more detail, until it is fully formed. Composition takes form through patience, probing, occasional accidents, spontaneity and a form of focused daydreaming. Debut mini-album <em>Beauty Becomes The Enemy of the Future</em> was released initially on David Newlyn’s Cathedral Transmissions label in December 2009, and as a self-published book in spring 2010. A second 2010 release, <em>31: Before The Light Fails</em>, was released as a digital download and as a special box, an edition of one, containing music and photography, representing Antonymes’ fear and suspicion of the herd mentality. The piece consisted of two tracks to be played simultaneously in separate rooms. Various pieces by Antonymes have appeared on compilations produced by labels Soundcolours, Dezordr, Cathedral Transmissions and Audio Gourmet. The album <em>The Licence To Interpet Dreams</em> was released by Hidden Shoal to widespread critical acclaim in early 2011.
