This week's featured track is delivered by Hidden Shoal's Tim Clarke. It's a gorgeous track and a lovely little tale of how we snared Tim into the fold.

"Back in 2006, when Hidden Shoal was in its infancy and before I came on board, I reviewed a few of the releases for Norwegian e-zine Luna Kafe. <a title="My Majestic Star" href="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/my-majestic-star/">My Majestic Star</a>'s <a title="My Majestic Star" href="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/my-majestic-star/"><em>Ideas Are The Answer</em></a> was one of these albums, of which 'Coffee Stains and Beer' is the stunning opening track. It immediately put me in the same space as Papa M's <em>Live From A Shark Cage</em>, which is one of my favourite albums of all time. 'Coffee Stains and Beer' is a close relative of <em>Shark Cage</em>'s opener 'Arundel'. Chris Mason has such a deft melodic sensibility and restraint in this song, comparable to Dave Pajo – which is a massive compliment! When I heard this song, it put things into perspective: a small label based in Perth were releasing stuff that stood up against some of the best music I've ever heard. I had to get involved." – Tim Clarke
