The result is a rather cinematic affair – a musical travelogue that takes your ears from Detroit to Tokyo via Antibes.</p><p><strong><br /> </strong></p><p>[/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"]</p><h3>Discography</h3><div> </div><div> </div><h4>We Don't Look Back For Very Long (with Slow Dancing Society)</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style="border: 0; width: 600px; height: 274px;" src="http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=4290771882/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=none/transparent=true/" width="300" height="150" seamless=""><a href="http://antonymes.bandcamp.com/album/we-dont-look-back-for-very-long">We Don't Look Back For Very Long by Antonymes meets Slow Dancing Society</a></iframe></p><div> </div><p><em>We Don’t Look Back For Very Long </em>sees Antonymes reworking a track from each of fellow Hidden Shoal artist Slow Dancing Society’s four albums, casting radiant new light on the stunning originals. Across almost 30 minutes, Antonymes marries SDS’s glistening atmospheres to his own trademark ambient neo-classical minimalism, creating a completely mesmerising hybrid.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Lost In Waves of Light</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style="border: 0; width: 600px; height: 200px;" src="http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3184595053/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/" width="300" height="150" seamless=""><a href="http://antonymes.bandcamp.com/album/lost-in-waves-of-light">Lost In Waves Of Light by Antonymes</a></iframe></p><div> </div><p>Created from elements lifted off Antonyme’s critically acclaimed album <span style="font-style: italic;">The Licence To Interpret Dreams</span>, ‘Lost In Waves Of Light’ is a deftly crafted sonic and melodic patchwork. The track sits as a wonderful companion piece to the album, as recognised melodies unfurl, cloaked in new guises. As a work unto itself it once again places Antonymes at the height of his game, producing some of the most emotionally and sonically engaging work being released today. Antonymes new album <span style="font-style: italic;">The Licence To Interpret Dreams</span> has been met with universal acclaim since its release in April. It is an album of resonant beauty, as expansive as the wilds of North Wales from which it came, yet as delicate and intimate as a loved one’s breath upon your skin. Each song deploys a modest array of instruments and textures, giving them ample space to breathe and glow.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>The Licence To Interpret Dreams</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style="border: 0; width: 600px; height: 550px;" src="http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=1679006704/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/" width="300" height="150" seamless=""><a href="http://antonymes.bandcamp.com/album/the-licence-to-interpret-dreams">The Licence To Interpret Dreams by Antonymes</a></iframe></p><div> </div><p><span style="font-style: italic;">The Licence To Interpret Dreams</span> is the Hidden Shoal debut release by neo-classical/minimal ambient artist Antonymes. It is an album of resonant beauty, as expansive as the wilds of North Wales from which it came, yet as delicate and intimate as a loved one’s breath upon your skin. Each song deploys a modest array of instruments and textures, giving them ample space to breathe and glow. The album’s scope is immediately apparent on breathtaking opener ‘The Slow Beginnings of a ‘A Fragile Acceptance’, where faint piano notes are overwhelmed by an aching surge of cellos, and the timeless, lingering chord progression of ‘The Siren, Hopelessly Lost’. Single ‘Endlessly’ weaves traces of nature with unearthly, oscillating tones before giving way to a strident piano theme. On ‘Doubt’, Jan Van Den Broek delivers the words of Paul Morley, cradled against a bed of melancholic piano, violin and cello, leaving an indelible emotional mark. ‘A Light From The Heavens’ almost feels like a natural conclusion to the album, with its sense of reflective yearning, but it is followed by the devastating metaphysical breakdown of ‘On Arrival at the Strange Museum’, a cavernous piece that calls out like some giant magnetic spirit.[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title="Bio"]</p><h3>Biography</h3><p>Wayne Harriss and Stu Medley of Motor Eye (formerly Holding Pattern) have record collections that are scarily similar. Scary because Steely Dan and 10cc feature heavily. Combine this with years of playing together with Andy Gill as the Perth sub-country jazz/rock three piece Resin and you have the chemistry for some fine tunes, which belies the speed at which their debut album <em>Motor Eye</em> was made.</p><p>Motor Eye is Wayne and Stu in their semi-electronic, experimental jazz-pop guise. Andy was dragged in as session drummer and squashed down onto one track for each of the songs. Wayne wears his producer’s hat and engineer’s cap for this LP and plays all the bass (Stu’s role in Resin) while keeping an archaic Akai sampler on the go. Stu plays guitars (Wayne’s role in Resin) and keyboards. Vocal duties are shared.</p><p>Now living in separate cities and both working in the graphic media world, Wayne and Stu are trying to get their act together to record a new album.</p><p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title="News"]</p><h3>News</h3><p>[catlist name=antonymes-news content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title="Reviews"]</p><h2>Reviews</h2><p>[catlist name=antonymes-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title="Press Releases"]</p><h3>Press Releases</h3><p><a href="../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes_meets_Slow_Dancing_Society.pdf">Antonymes meets Slow Dancing Society – <em>We Don’t Look Back For Very Long</em> </a> <a href="../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes_meets_Slow_Dancing_Society.pdf">EP </a> <em><a href="../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes-Lost_In_Waves_Of_Light.pdf">Lost In Waves Of Light</a></em> <a href="../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes-Endlessly.pdf"><em>The Licence To Interpret Dreams</em> Album</a> <a href="../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes-Endlessly.pdf">‘Endlessly’ Single</a> <a href="../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes_Signing.pdf">Antonymes Signing</a> [/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title="Gallery"]</p><h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p><div class="wpview-wrap wpview-type-gallery" contenteditable="false" data-wpview-text="%5Bgallery%20ids%3D%228222%2C8221%2C8220%2C8219%22%5D" data-wpview-type="gallery"><div class="toolbar"> </div><div class="gallery gallery-columns-3"><dl class="gallery-item"><dt class="gallery-icon"><img src="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Antonymes_4-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></dt><dd class="wp-caption-text gallery-caption"></dd></dl><dl class="gallery-item"><dt class="gallery-icon"><img src="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Antonymes_3-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></dt><dd class="wp-caption-text gallery-caption"></dd></dl><dl class="gallery-item"><dt class="gallery-icon"><img src="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Antonymes_2-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></dt><dd class="wp-caption-text gallery-caption"></dd></dl><br style="clear: both;" /><dl class="gallery-item"><dt class="gallery-icon"><img src="http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/06/Antonymes_1-150x150.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="150" /></dt><dd class="wp-caption-text gallery-caption"></dd></dl></div><ins data-wpview-end="1"></ins></div><p><br /> [/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title="Video"]</p><h3>Music Videos</h3><p><iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/U7tLhh8a1lo?rel=0" width="420" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> <iframe src="//www.youtube.com/embed/4senhm9eiTY?rel=0" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe> [/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title="Licensing"]</p><h3>Licensing</h3><p>Antonymes music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.
