"The borders of new-wave, shoegaze and ambient guitar overlap in this new project, The October Solution, which sees protagonists Jarrod Manuel (City Of Satellites) and Drew Sullivan ( Slow Dancing Society) join together.

While working at a distance, between Australia and the US west coast, the two artists have had the opportunity to meet, exchanging their interests for the music of the 80s, that of 4AD, the dark-hued wave and shoegaze. From this meeting of different experiences and affinity of tastes they have taken the moves the eight tracks of "Axis Swim Scar", outlining a mixture of evanescent electro-pop, punctuated by rhythmic dry and furrowed with ethereal melodies and dreamy.

Not only longing lives work, on the contrary aesthetics of the eighties revival currently in vogue, despite some excess synth, for both artists is manifested not be a simple aesthetic suggestion, but a natural propensity expressive, complementary and consistent with their personal projects."
