Fusing masterful songwriting with electronics and atmospherics, stepping into a Kramies song means being swept up into an emotionally resonant vortex of swooning pop that simply demands repeat listens. His three Hidden Shoal studio EPs, <a title=\"The European\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-european\" target=\"_blank\"><i>The European</i></a>, <a title=\"The Wooden Heart\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/releases\" target=\"_blank\"><i>The Wooden Heart</i></a><i> and <a title=\"The Folklore Sessions\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-folklore-sessions\" target=\"_blank\">The Folklore Sessions</a></i> have been released to universal acclaim from around the world. We posed Kramies a few curly questions in order to delve a little into his music, his life and his creative process.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>1. Do you remember the first song you wrote?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Surprisingly I do. I remember mostly trying to make sounds with non-musical stuff. It’s weird because I remember being really young, around 9 years old, and liking the way my S\'s sounded when I would put a pen cap under my lips. Ha! Or using a paper towel roll to sing through because I thought it made my voice sound distant. I’m not sure I should even share that stuff! Anyway, I believe the first song I ever wrote was called ‘Daisy’. I must have been 14. I used the paper towel roll effect and that\'s when I started experimenting with a 4-track cassette recorder. It felt like such a big deal back then. I was the only kid with a 4-track and I made this \'thing\' called ‘Daisy’! Ha! I\'m sure I still have it somewhere. Fortunately I have forgotten every other song between that first one and the last 4 years, though.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>2. Can you tell us a little about your early music career? How did it shape what you do now?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I was pretty shy and I’m sure the main reason I fell into music was because I received a little Casio keyboard and a toy acoustic guitar for Christmas. If it had been a toy ‘Easy Bake Oven’ that Christmas I probably would have pursued being a pastry chef. My shyness combined with these two instruments took up most my time. I was pretty bad, but I remember playing everything from my emotions. From there I joined a few bands in my town, but was not that great a player. In fact, one time I left my guitar at band practice and the guys carved ‘You suck’ into it, so I switched to bass! No one played bass in my town, so all of a sudden I was playing in the older kids’ bands and doing a ton of stuff musically. Still, I loved writing so I decided I would have to start and front my own bands. A few of those bands did some cool bigger things, but I always felt more comfortable writing and recording the stuff in my head more than being in a band. I always viewed writing songs and albums more like writing little books. It’s more of a personal adventure for me. I do believe working with a band helped me understand how to piece parts together while writing, but most of all it helped me become comfortable with what I do and to trust my instincts more.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>3. Can you tell us a little about your songwriting process?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It seems to come in bursts, but mostly my songwriting starts with an image – something I see that sits in my head and then takes over my heart. It could be weeks or months before I start hearing it, then it seems to form into a phrase and melody that sparks a whole story. I usually write most of my stuff on acoustic guitar and write the lyrics first. I can spend days obsessing over the same three chords and mumbling the same words over and over. Then if I find myself waking up with the song parts still in my head, I won’t stop writing till it’s done. From there I\'ll make a crappy demo of it and start writing and layering the other parts. I think it’s pretty basic, but for me the biggest part is to capture emotion and the image that originally started to grow in my mind. I become a bit like an obsessive crazy scientist over the process.</p>\r\n<iframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/108752237&amp;color=ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"></iframe>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>4. Does living in the mountains influence your songwriting?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Yes, tremendously. I think living near anything naturally beautiful like the mountains, which are so big and expansive, makes my mind wander. It wanders past normal everyday activities, which helps inspire my writing – it has such a huge effect on me. It feels very comforting to me to know I can get lost for a while in the mountains. Oceans have the same wonderful effect. I feel there is such a warm silence and understanding with nature that helps whatever songs I’m working on.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>5. The lyrical themes in your work have such a vivid melancholic romanticism about them. They pair beautifully with the atmosphere of the songs and the production. Where does this lyrical imagery come from?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wow, thank you, that’s so nice to hear! The lyrics have always been the most important part to me. I keep them very close to my heart. I never understood really where they come from or if they have meaning, but they definitely reflect an image or a story. I always seem to have a love for hauntingly romantic words. I don\'t know where it comes from, but castles, ghosts of the past, old world imagery and poetic scenery always seem to influence my writing. I do remember at an early age wanting to just be a writer, but the music really helps push a story to a higher emotional range for me and helps create a kind of frame to sing through.</p>\r\n<iframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/113293421&amp;color=ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"></iframe>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>6. How did your collaborations with Jason Lytle (Grandaddy) and Grant Wilson (</b><b><i>Ghost Hunters</i></b><b>) come about?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Well, it’s a short blurry story that starts in the late 1990s. First, my bands back in the ’90s opened and played for a handful of great bands like Calexico, Spiritualized, Red House Painters and Grandaddy. Jason and I had some mutual friends and hung out in groups a few times. It wasn’t until around 2012 that we reconnected and  started chatting about him producing a few of the songs for my EP <i>The Wooden Heart</i>. He is such a nice person and I was just blown away by how he turned all the simple little parts and songs I recorded into these bigger, more emotionally exposed and mature pieces.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Grant and I first had a strange brief meeting. It’s funny because I’ve watch his show <i>Ghost Hunters</i> on SyFy a lot and I was just doing a radio show and the interviewer mentioned how I seemed influenced by ghosts and haunting imagery, so he asked if I ever watched <i>Ghost Hunters</i>. Well, that same day, after the radio show, I visited the Stanley Hotel, and literally ran into Grant in the lobby of the hotel! It wasn\'t until a few years later, when I discovered his beautiful piano music once <i>The Wooden Heart</i> was released, that I sent him a few songs. We share a love for the same musical sound. I was working on an acoustic follow-up to <i>The Wooden Heart</i> called <i>The Folklore Sessions</i> and asked him if he would like to play piano on a few tracks. It was a wonderful experience and I was blown away by how much beauty he added to my simple songs. Both Jason and Grant are amazing and very easy to work with.</p>\r\n<iframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/150581449&amp;color=ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"></iframe>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>7. Can you tell us what you do outside of making music?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I do a lot of art stuff. I seem to stay pretty creative. I find myself lost in mountain storms while on runs and I enjoy visiting little towns. I run a lot and I do a lot of yoga and meditation. But mostly I explore.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>8. What’s spinning on the Kramies stereo at the moment?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have a weird thing where I barely listen to music until I hear something that really pulls at my heart, then I listen to it a thousand times. So I’m not so good with what’s happening now and what’s new these days. I have Joanna Newsom, some older Jane’s Addiction, Glen Hansard, Indians, and Simon &amp; Garfunkel in my stereo right now. Also there is a wonderful French band I love called A Singer Must Die too. There is a ton of wonderful Hidden Shoal artists as well.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>9. Is it true that you share a house with Neil Diamond?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ha! Yes, it’s true. Neil Diamond the cat dwells within my home. My wife actually named him Neil Diamond because of the white diamond on his chest – and the name stuck. He\'s a bit of a celebrity here. He\'s also known as The Creeper because you won’t see him for a while and then you’ll notice just his eyes and big grey head watching you from afar. He’s a very interesting creature and he lays next to me while I write.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>10. What’s next for Kramies?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There’s an overseas tour that\'s been postponed twice, but will actually happen this spring. I’m working on a new EP for 2015, and before that I will have a sort of obscure B-side release and a single with special guests and some new friends. Also, a few more interviews and live videos before I hide away to finish writing the new EP.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/uM1_Ov-ont0?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>','Neil Diamond, Jason Lytle and Ghost Hunters - An Interview with Kramies ','','inherit','closed','closed','','10603-revision-v1','','','2014-09-10 08:51:01','2014-09-10 08:51:01','',10603,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/10603-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(10624,1,'2014-09-10 08:54:59','2014-09-10 08:54:59','<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-10611 \" src=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Kramies-Sea-Otter-Frame.jpg\" alt=\"Kramies\" width=\"548\" height=\"308\" />American singer-songwriter <a title=\"Kramies\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/kramies/\">Kramies</a> has been honing his inimitable craft for many years, bewitching all who have heard his music along the way.

I keep them very close to my heart. I never understood really where they come from or if they have meaning, but they definitely reflect an image or a story. I always seem to have a love for hauntingly romantic words. I don\'t know where it comes from, but castles, ghosts of the past, old world imagery and poetic scenery always seem to influence my writing.

First, my bands back in the ’90s opened and played for a handful of great bands like Calexico, Spiritualized, Red House Painters and Grandaddy. Jason and I had some mutual friends and hung out in groups a few times. It wasn’t until around 2012 that we reconnected and  started chatting about him producing a few of the songs for my EP <i>The Wooden Heart</i>.

It’s funny because I’ve watch his show <i>Ghost Hunters</i> on SyFy a lot and I was just doing a radio show and the interviewer mentioned how I seemed influenced by ghosts and haunting imagery, so he asked if I ever watched <i>Ghost Hunters</i>. Well, that same day, after the radio show, I visited the Stanley Hotel, and literally ran into Grant in the lobby of the hotel! It wasn\'t until a few years later, when I discovered his beautiful piano music once <i>The Wooden Heart</i> was released, that I sent him a few songs. We share a love for the same musical sound. I was working on an acoustic follow-up to <i>The Wooden Heart</i> called <i>The Folklore Sessions</i> and asked him if he would like to play piano on a few tracks. It was a wonderful experience and I was blown away by how much beauty he added to my simple songs.

Fusing masterful songwriting with electronics and atmospherics, stepping into a Kramies song means being swept up into an emotionally resonant vortex of swooning pop that simply demands repeat listens. His three Hidden Shoal EPs, <a title=\"The European\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-european\" target=\"_blank\"><i>The European</i></a>, <a title=\"The Wooden Heart\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/releases\" target=\"_blank\"><i>The Wooden Heart</i></a><i> and <a title=\"The Folklore Sessions\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-folklore-sessions\" target=\"_blank\">The Folklore Sessions</a></i> have been released to universal acclaim from around the world. We posed Kramies a few curly questions in order to delve a little into his music, his life and his creative process.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>1. Do you remember the first song you wrote?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Surprisingly I do. I remember mostly trying to make sounds with non-musical stuff. It’s weird because I remember being really young, around 9 years old, and liking the way my S\'s sounded when I would put a pen cap under my lips. Ha! Or using a paper towel roll to sing through because I thought it made my voice sound distant. I’m not sure I should even share that stuff! Anyway, I believe the first song I ever wrote was called ‘Daisy’. I must have been 14. I used the paper towel roll effect and that\'s when I started experimenting with a 4-track cassette recorder. It felt like such a big deal back then. I was the only kid with a 4-track and I made this \'thing\' called ‘Daisy’! Ha! I\'m sure I still have it somewhere. Fortunately I have forgotten every other song between that first one and the last 4 years, though.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>2. Can you tell us a little about your early music career? How did it shape what you do now?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I was pretty shy and I’m sure the main reason I fell into music was because I received a little Casio keyboard and a toy acoustic guitar for Christmas. If it had been a toy ‘Easy Bake Oven’ that Christmas I probably would have pursued being a pastry chef. My shyness combined with these two instruments took up most my time. I was pretty bad, but I remember playing everything from my emotions. From there I joined a few bands in my town, but was not that great a player. In fact, one time I left my guitar at band practice and the guys carved ‘You suck’ into it, so I switched to bass! No one played bass in my town, so all of a sudden I was playing in the older kids’ bands and doing a ton of stuff musically. Still, I loved writing so I decided I would have to start and front my own bands. A few of those bands did some cool bigger things, but I always felt more comfortable writing and recording the stuff in my head more than being in a band. I always viewed writing songs and albums more like writing little books. It’s more of a personal adventure for me. I do believe working with a band helped me understand how to piece parts together while writing, but most of all it helped me become comfortable with what I do and to trust my instincts more.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>3. Can you tell us a little about your songwriting process?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It seems to come in bursts, but mostly my songwriting starts with an image – something I see that sits in my head and then takes over my heart. It could be weeks or months before I start hearing it, then it seems to form into a phrase and melody that sparks a whole story. I usually write most of my stuff on acoustic guitar and write the lyrics first. I can spend days obsessing over the same three chords and mumbling the same words over and over. Then if I find myself waking up with the song parts still in my head, I won’t stop writing till it’s done. From there I\'ll make a crappy demo of it and start writing and layering the other parts. I think it’s pretty basic, but for me the biggest part is to capture emotion and the image that originally started to grow in my mind. I become a bit like an obsessive crazy scientist over the process.</p>\r\n<iframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/108752237&amp;color=ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"></iframe>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>4. Does living in the mountains influence your songwriting?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Yes, tremendously. I think living near anything naturally beautiful like the mountains, which are so big and expansive, makes my mind wander. It wanders past normal everyday activities, which helps inspire my writing – it has such a huge effect on me. It feels very comforting to me to know I can get lost for a while in the mountains. Oceans have the same wonderful effect. I feel there is such a warm silence and understanding with nature that helps whatever songs I’m working on.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>5.

Also, a few more interviews and live videos before I hide away to finish writing the new EP.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/uM1_Ov-ont0?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>','Neil Diamond, Jason Lytle and Ghost Hunters - An Interview with Kramies ','','inherit','closed','closed','','10603-revision-v1','','','2014-09-10 08:57:22','2014-09-10 08:57:22','',10603,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/10603-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(10629,1,'2014-09-10 09:07:35','2014-09-10 09:07:35','<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><img class=\"alignright wp-image-10625 \" src=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/Kramies-Sea-Otter-Frame-Cropped.jpg\" alt=\"Kramies\" width=\"418\" height=\"259\" />American singer-songwriter <a title=\"Kramies\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/kramies/\">Kramies</a> has been honing his inimitable craft for many years, bewitching all who have heard his music along the way. Fusing masterful songwriting with electronics and atmospherics, stepping into a Kramies song means being swept up into an emotionally resonant vortex of swooning pop that simply demands repeat listens. His three Hidden Shoal EPs, <a title=\"The European\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-european\" target=\"_blank\"><i>The European</i></a>, <a title=\"The Wooden Heart\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/releases\" target=\"_blank\"><i>The Wooden Heart</i></a><i> and <a title=\"The Folklore Sessions\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-folklore-sessions\" target=\"_blank\">The Folklore Sessions</a></i> have been released to universal acclaim from around the world. We posed Kramies a few curly questions in order to delve a little into his music, his life and his creative process.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>1. Do you remember the first song you wrote?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Surprisingly I do. I remember mostly trying to make sounds with non-musical stuff. It’s weird because I remember being really young, around 9 years old, and liking the way my S\'s sounded when I would put a pen cap under my lips. Ha! Or using a paper towel roll to sing through because I thought it made my voice sound distant. I’m not sure I should even share that stuff! Anyway, I believe the first song I ever wrote was called ‘Daisy’. I must have been 14. I used the paper towel roll effect and that\'s when I started experimenting with a 4-track cassette recorder. It felt like such a big deal back then. I was the only kid with a 4-track and I made this \'thing\' called ‘Daisy’! Ha! I\'m sure I still have it somewhere. Fortunately I have forgotten every other song between that first one and the last 4 years, though.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>2. Can you tell us a little about your early music career? How did it shape what you do now?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I was pretty shy and I’m sure the main reason I fell into music was because I received a little Casio keyboard and a toy acoustic guitar for Christmas. If it had been a toy ‘Easy Bake Oven’ that Christmas I probably would have pursued being a pastry chef. My shyness combined with these two instruments took up most my time. I was pretty bad, but I remember playing everything from my emotions. From there I joined a few bands in my town, but was not that great a player. In fact, one time I left my guitar at band practice and the guys carved ‘You suck’ into it, so I switched to bass! No one played bass in my town, so all of a sudden I was playing in the older kids’ bands and doing a ton of stuff musically. Still, I loved writing so I decided I would have to start and front my own bands. A few of those bands did some cool bigger things, but I always felt more comfortable writing and recording the stuff in my head more than being in a band. I always viewed writing songs and albums more like writing little books. It’s more of a personal adventure for me. I do believe working with a band helped me understand how to piece parts together while writing, but most of all it helped me become comfortable with what I do and to trust my instincts more.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>3. Can you tell us a little about your songwriting process?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It seems to come in bursts, but mostly my songwriting starts with an image – something I see that sits in my head and then takes over my heart. It could be weeks or months before I start hearing it, then it seems to form into a phrase and melody that sparks a whole story. I usually write most of my stuff on acoustic guitar and write the lyrics first. I can spend days obsessing over the same three chords and mumbling the same words over and over. Then if I find myself waking up with the song parts still in my head, I won’t stop writing till it’s done. From there I\'ll make a crappy demo of it and start writing and layering the other parts. I think it’s pretty basic, but for me the biggest part is to capture emotion and the image that originally started to grow in my mind. I become a bit like an obsessive crazy scientist over the process.</p>\r\n<iframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/108752237&amp;color=ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"></iframe>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>4. Does living in the mountains influence your songwriting?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Yes, tremendously. I think living near anything naturally beautiful like the mountains, which are so big and expansive, makes my mind wander. It wanders past normal everyday activities, which helps inspire my writing – it has such a huge effect on me. It feels very comforting to me to know I can get lost for a while in the mountains. Oceans have the same wonderful effect. I feel there is such a warm silence and understanding with nature that helps whatever songs I’m working on.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>5. The lyrical themes in your work have such a vivid melancholic romanticism about them. They pair beautifully with the atmosphere of the songs and the production. Where does this lyrical imagery come from?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wow, thank you, that’s so nice to hear! The lyrics have always been the most important part to me. I keep them very close to my heart. I never understood really where they come from or if they have meaning, but they definitely reflect an image or a story. I always seem to have a love for hauntingly romantic words. I don\'t know where it comes from, but castles, ghosts of the past, old world imagery and poetic scenery always seem to influence my writing. I do remember at an early age wanting to just be a writer, but the music really helps push a story to a higher emotional range for me and helps create a kind of frame to sing through.</p>\r\n<iframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/113293421&amp;color=ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"></iframe>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>6. How did your collaborations with Jason Lytle (Grandaddy) and Grant Wilson (</b><b><i>Ghost Hunters</i></b><b>) come about?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Well, it’s a short blurry story that starts in the late 1990s. First, my bands back in the ’90s opened and played for a handful of great bands like Calexico, Spiritualized, Red House Painters and Grandaddy. Jason and I had some mutual friends and hung out in groups a few times. It wasn’t until around 2012 that we reconnected and  started chatting about him producing a few of the songs for my EP <i>The Wooden Heart</i>. He is such a nice person and I was just blown away by how he turned all the simple little parts and songs I recorded into these bigger, more emotionally exposed and mature pieces.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Grant and I first had a strange brief meeting. It’s funny because I’ve watch his show <i>Ghost Hunters</i> on SyFy a lot and I was just doing a radio show and the interviewer mentioned how I seemed influenced by ghosts and haunting imagery, so he asked if I ever watched <i>Ghost Hunters</i>. Well, that same day, after the radio show, I visited the Stanley Hotel, and literally ran into Grant in the lobby of the hotel! It wasn\'t until a few years later, when I discovered his beautiful piano music once <i>The Wooden Heart</i> was released, that I sent him a few songs. We share a love for the same musical sound. I was working on an acoustic follow-up to <i>The Wooden Heart</i> called <i>The Folklore Sessions</i> and asked him if he would like to play piano on a few tracks. It was a wonderful experience and I was blown away by how much beauty he added to my simple songs. Both Jason and Grant are amazing and very easy to work with.</p>\r\n<iframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/150581449&amp;color=ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"></iframe>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>7. Can you tell us what you do outside of making music?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I do a lot of art stuff. I seem to stay pretty creative. I find myself lost in mountain storms while on runs and I enjoy visiting little towns. I run a lot and I do a lot of yoga and meditation. But mostly I explore.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>8. What’s spinning on the Kramies stereo at the moment?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have a weird thing where I barely listen to music until I hear something that really pulls at my heart, then I listen to it a thousand times. So I’m not so good with what’s happening now and what’s new these days. I have Joanna Newsom, some older Jane’s Addiction, Glen Hansard, Indians, and Simon &amp; Garfunkel in my stereo right now. Also there is a wonderful French band I love called A Singer Must Die too. There is a ton of wonderful Hidden Shoal artists as well.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>9. Is it true that you share a house with Neil Diamond?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ha! Yes, it’s true. Neil Diamond the cat dwells within my home. My wife actually named him Neil Diamond because of the white diamond on his chest – and the name stuck. He\'s a bit of a celebrity here. He\'s also known as The Creeper because you won’t see him for a while and then you’ll notice just his eyes and big grey head watching you from afar. He’s a very interesting creature and he lays next to me while I write.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>10. What’s next for Kramies?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There’s an overseas tour that\'s been postponed twice, but will actually happen this spring. I’m working on a new EP for 2015, and before that I will have a sort of obscure B-side release and a single with special guests and some new friends.

Fusing masterful songwriting with electronics and atmospherics, stepping into a Kramies song means being swept up into an emotionally resonant vortex of swooning pop that simply demands repeat listens. His three Hidden Shoal EPs, <a title=\"The European\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-european\" target=\"_blank\"><i>The European</i></a>, <a title=\"The Wooden Heart\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/releases\" target=\"_blank\"><i>The Wooden Heart</i></a><i> and <a title=\"The Folklore Sessions\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-folklore-sessions\" target=\"_blank\">The Folklore Sessions</a></i> have been released to universal acclaim from around the world. We posed Kramies a few curly questions in order to delve a little into his music, his life and his creative process.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>1. Do you remember the first song you wrote?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Surprisingly I do. I remember mostly trying to make sounds with non-musical stuff. It’s weird because I remember being really young, around 9 years old, and liking the way my S\'s sounded when I would put a pen cap under my lips. Ha! Or using a paper towel roll to sing through because I thought it made my voice sound distant. I’m not sure I should even share that stuff! Anyway, I believe the first song I ever wrote was called ‘Daisy’. I must have been 14. I used the paper towel roll effect and that\'s when I started experimenting with a 4-track cassette recorder. It felt like such a big deal back then. I was the only kid with a 4-track and I made this \'thing\' called ‘Daisy’! Ha! I\'m sure I still have it somewhere. Fortunately I have forgotten every other song between that first one and the last 4 years, though.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>2. Can you tell us a little about your early music career? How did it shape what you do now?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I was pretty shy and I’m sure the main reason I fell into music was because I received a little Casio keyboard and a toy acoustic guitar for Christmas. If it had been a toy ‘Easy Bake Oven’ that Christmas I probably would have pursued being a pastry chef. My shyness combined with these two instruments took up most my time. I was pretty bad, but I remember playing everything from my emotions. From there I joined a few bands in my town, but was not that great a player. In fact, one time I left my guitar at band practice and the guys carved ‘You suck’ into it, so I switched to bass! No one played bass in my town, so all of a sudden I was playing in the older kids’ bands and doing a ton of stuff musically. Still, I loved writing so I decided I would have to start and front my own bands. A few of those bands did some cool bigger things, but I always felt more comfortable writing and recording the stuff in my head more than being in a band. I always viewed writing songs and albums more like writing little books. It’s more of a personal adventure for me. I do believe working with a band helped me understand how to piece parts together while writing, but most of all it helped me become comfortable with what I do and to trust my instincts more.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>3. Can you tell us a little about your songwriting process?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It seems to come in bursts, but mostly my songwriting starts with an image – something I see that sits in my head and then takes over my heart. It could be weeks or months before I start hearing it, then it seems to form into a phrase and melody that sparks a whole story. I usually write most of my stuff on acoustic guitar and write the lyrics first. I can spend days obsessing over the same three chords and mumbling the same words over and over. Then if I find myself waking up with the song parts still in my head, I won’t stop writing till it’s done. From there I\'ll make a crappy demo of it and start writing and layering the other parts. I think it’s pretty basic, but for me the biggest part is to capture emotion and the image that originally started to grow in my mind. I become a bit like an obsessive crazy scientist over the process.</p>\r\n<iframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/108752237&amp;color=ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"></iframe>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>4. Does living in the mountains influence your songwriting?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Yes, tremendously. I think living near anything naturally beautiful like the mountains, which are so big and expansive, makes my mind wander. It wanders past normal everyday activities, which helps inspire my writing – it has such a huge effect on me. It feels very comforting to me to know I can get lost for a while in the mountains. Oceans have the same wonderful effect. I feel there is such a warm silence and understanding with nature that helps whatever songs I’m working on.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>5. The lyrical themes in your work have such a vivid melancholic romanticism about them. They pair beautifully with the atmosphere of the songs and the production. Where does this lyrical imagery come from?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Wow, thank you, that’s so nice to hear! The lyrics have always been the most important part to me. I keep them very close to my heart. I never understood really where they come from or if they have meaning, but they definitely reflect an image or a story. I always seem to have a love for hauntingly romantic words. I don\'t know where it comes from, but castles, ghosts of the past, old world imagery and poetic scenery always seem to influence my writing. I do remember at an early age wanting to just be a writer, but the music really helps push a story to a higher emotional range for me and helps create a kind of frame to sing through.</p>\r\n<iframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/113293421&amp;color=ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"></iframe>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>6. How did your collaborations with Jason Lytle (Grandaddy) and Grant Wilson (</b><b><i>Ghost Hunters</i></b><b>) come about?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Well, it’s a short blurry story that starts in the late 1990s. First, my bands back in the ’90s opened and played for a handful of great bands like Calexico, Spiritualized, Red House Painters and Grandaddy. Jason and I had some mutual friends and hung out in groups a few times. It wasn’t until around 2012 that we reconnected and  started chatting about him producing a few of the songs for my EP <a title=\"The Wooden Heart\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/releases\"><i>The Wooden Heart</i></a>. He is such a nice person and I was just blown away by how he turned all the simple little parts and songs I recorded into these bigger, more emotionally exposed and mature pieces.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Grant and I first had a strange brief meeting. It’s funny because I’ve watch his show <i>Ghost Hunters</i> on SyFy a lot and I was just doing a radio show and the interviewer mentioned how I seemed influenced by ghosts and haunting imagery, so he asked if I ever watched <i>Ghost Hunters</i>. Well, that same day, after the radio show, I visited the Stanley Hotel, and literally ran into Grant in the lobby of the hotel! It wasn\'t until a few years later, when I discovered his beautiful piano music once <i>The Wooden Heart</i> was released, that I sent him a few songs. We share a love for the same musical sound. I was working on an acoustic follow-up to <i>The Wooden Heart</i> called <a title=\"The Folklore Sessions\" href=\"https://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-folklore-sessions\"><i>The Folklore Sessions</i></a> and asked him if he would like to play piano on a few tracks. It was a wonderful experience and I was blown away by how much beauty he added to my simple songs. Both Jason and Grant are amazing and very easy to work with.</p>\r\n<iframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/tracks/150581449&amp;color=ff5500&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=true&amp;show_user=true&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"></iframe>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>7. Can you tell us what you do outside of making music?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I do a lot of art stuff. I seem to stay pretty creative. I find myself lost in mountain storms while on runs and I enjoy visiting little towns. I run a lot and I do a lot of yoga and meditation. But mostly I explore.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>8. What’s spinning on the Kramies stereo at the moment?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I have a weird thing where I barely listen to music until I hear something that really pulls at my heart, then I listen to it a thousand times. So I’m not so good with what’s happening now and what’s new these days. I have Joanna Newsom, some older Jane’s Addiction, Glen Hansard, Indians, and Simon &amp; Garfunkel in my stereo right now. Also there is a wonderful French band I love called A Singer Must Die too. There is a ton of wonderful Hidden Shoal artists as well.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>9. Is it true that you share a house with Neil Diamond?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Ha! Yes, it’s true. Neil Diamond the cat dwells within my home. My wife actually named him Neil Diamond because of the white diamond on his chest – and the name stuck. He\'s a bit of a celebrity here. He\'s also known as The Creeper because you won’t see him for a while and then you’ll notice just his eyes and big grey head watching you from afar. He’s a very interesting creature and he lays next to me while I write.</p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>10. What’s next for Kramies?</b></p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">There’s an overseas tour that\'s been postponed twice, but will actually happen this spring. I’m working on a new EP for 2015, and before that I will have a sort of obscure B-side release and a single with special guests and some new friends. Also, a few more interviews and live videos before I hide away to finish writing the new EP.</p>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/uM1_Ov-ont0?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>','Neil Diamond, Jason Lytle and Ghost Hunters - An Interview with Kramies ','','inherit','closed','closed','','10603-revision-v1','','','2014-09-11 08:57:18','2014-09-11 08:57:18','',10603,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/10603-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(10657,1,'2014-09-11 09:10:58','2014-09-11 09:10:58','[et_pb_section][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=\"3_4\"][et_pb_blog admin_label=\"Blog\" fullwidth=\"on\" posts_number=\"10\" include_categories=\"2126\" meta_date=\"M j, Y\" show_thumbnail=\"off\" show_content=\"on\" show_author=\"off\" show_date=\"on\" show_categories=\"off\" show_pagination=\"on\" background_layout=\"dark\" /][et_pb_text admin_label=\"Text\" /][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=\"1_4\"][et_pb_sidebar admin_label=\"Sidebar\" orientation=\"left\" area=\"sidebar-1\" background_layout=\"light\" /][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section]','Features','','inherit','closed','closed','','9546-autosave-v1','','','2014-09-11 09:10:58','2014-09-11 09:10:58','',9546,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/9546-autosave-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(10656,1,'2014-09-11 09:02:53','2014-09-11 09:02:53',' ','','','publish','closed','closed','','10656','','','2017-03-16 12:02:57','2017-03-16 04:02:57','',0,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/?p=10656',54,'nav_menu_item','',0),(10658,1,'2014-09-11 09:14:38','2014-09-11 09:14:38','[et_pb_section][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=\"3_4\"][et_pb_text admin_label=\"Text\" background_layout=\"light\" text_orientation=\"left\"]<p>Here\'s where you\'ll get to read interviews with Hidden Shoal artists and other people we think are cool, see us wax lyrical about our favourite tracks, wrap your ears around artist and label curated mixtapes and other things we haven\'t even dreamed up yet.

The single-track album begins in silence, as a thrumming loop gradually emerges. From there, a beautiful piano refrain is introduced, noise ebbs and flows, threatening to engulf the piece, while field recordings and swooningly transportive synth patterns drift into focus. During its 42-minute runtime, the piece immerses the listener in a dizzyingly beautiful soundworld that’s ever-shifting. Certain passages allude to other sequences and samples in the preceding albums, linking the three albums into a kaleidoscopic mobius strip.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>On</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 406px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2332510059/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/on\">On by Markus Mehr</a></iframe><br /> July 2012</p><div> </div><p>The new album <em>On</em> by German experimental ambient artist Markus Mehr, forms the second part of a triptych that also includes recent release <em>In</em> and the forthcoming <em>Off</em>.</p><p><em>On</em> is a continuation of the experimental direction of Markus Mehr’s previous releases, with eight diverse tracks employing samples, field recordings and slathers of Mehr’s trademark distorted drones. This approach is apparent right from opener ‘Gonna Make You Mine’, as scything slashes of sound leap from the speakers. Single ‘Flaming Youth’ counterbalances fragments of static against a gorgeous sleepy-eyed loop of mangled lounge-jazz. A track as expansive and moving as ‘Duck Became Swan’ is followed by brief rhythmic piece ‘Olympia’. This tightrope walk between dizzying samples and exacting digital manipulation is walked with aplomb throughout <em>On</em>’s adventurous and thrilling 45-minute runtime.</p><p><em>On</em> is preceded by <em>In</em>, the first part of the triptych, which comprises two monumental tracks, ‘Komo’ and ‘Ostinato’, each of which clocks in at around 25 minutes, circling around and building upon hypnotic instrumental motifs. The final part of the triptych, Off, released on 24 January 2013, includes the most epic piece yet, ‘Transit’, which clocks in at 49 minutes and will be performed live in collaboration with video artist Stefanie Sixt, who created the video to Mehr’s single ‘Cousteau’.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>In</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 210px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=4000928914/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/in\">In by Markus Mehr</a></iframe><br /> January 2012</p><div> </div><p>Markus Mehr follows up his stunning debut album <em>Lava</em> with three new releases released over a 12 month period. In is the first part of the triptych, comprising two monumental tracks, ‘Komo’ and ‘Ostinato’, each of which clocks in at around 25 minutes, circling around and building upon hypnotic instrumental motifs. ‘Komo’ gradually emerges from silence, its distant, filtered throb reluctantly revealing its source material – a heartbreaking string part whose emotional impact intensifies as the loop clarifies. ‘Ostinato’ is an altogether darker, gnarlier experience, its string loops chewed into distorted knots which are highlighted by treated guitars and crafted electronics.</p><p>The second part, <em>On</em>, released on 21 June 2012, takes a more experimental direction, with eight diverse tracks employing samples, field recordings and slathers of Mehr’s trademark distorted drones. And finally, <em>Off</em>, released on 24 January 2013, includes the most epic piece yet, ‘Transit’, which clocks in at 49 minutes and will be performed live in collaboration with video artist Stefanie Sixt, who created the video to Mehr’s single ‘Cousteau’.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Lava</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 439px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=634202850/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/lava\">Lava by Markus Mehr</a></iframe><br /> August 2010</p><div> </div><p><em>Lava</em> holds true to its title – it is a dense surge of glue-think sound, making new paths as it pushes through the landscape. But, after any destructive force there is new growth. Green shoots of melody arc out of the surface and populate the terrain as new possibilities emerge. A new master of heartbreaking ambient drone has arrived. These tracks evoke time spent transfixed, gazing through a giant looking glass, waiting wide-eyed as new discoveries are revealed in the album’s textured contours.</p><p>On epic opener ‘Agenda’, layers of gorgeous synth gradually accumulate into a gloriously massive chord. On single ‘Hubble’, a bedrock of fuzzed drone is decorated with glistening counter-melodies, tracing shards of light across the coal-black skies. ‘Softwar’ builds and then falls away, only to return with a spine-tingling theme that crumbles under its own majesty.</p><p><em>Lava</em>’s ability to both suspend the listener in its abstracted liquid vapours and at the same time imprint its affecting narrative is a special thing. It is one of those albums whose emotional impact stays with you long after you feel its last touch.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]<h3>Biography</h3><p>Based in Augsburg, south Germany, Markus Mehr’s musical journey began with the guitar. He grew up listening to bands like Black Sabbath and AC/DC, before turning his ears to darker sounds and the ethereal, experimental pop of David Sylvian. After recording and touring with several bands, he struck out on his own with home studio project Aroma.</p><p>Now working under his own name, Mehr wrote and recorded his debut album <em>Lava</em> at his home studio using guitars and synths, plus any noise-making accoutrements at hand – electric shavers, ventilators, electric tooth brushes and field recordings –all processed and distorted to create a gorgeous wall of sound, akin to the classic ’70s Kosmische music of Klaus Schulze and Tangerine Dream, but also the contemporary masters of textured luminosity, Fennesz and Tim Hecker.

It is, however, a minority of  songs in the course of work, they reveal precisely the plurality of arrays of expression which is inspired by the project Involved, articulated both in cosmic dust from the beginnings of electronic music as in synthetic temptations of more direct ancestry eighties. From the fusion of these elements there is drawn such an original sound, not at all captivated by nostalgia but perfectly placed in an attitude that pays homage to the past, reworking, an operation in which every admirer of acid travel sci-fi can say that Dorsey and Enoignor succeed with respectful passion.\"\r\n\r\n-<a title=\"Music Will Not Save You\" href=\"http://musicwontsaveyou.com/2014/09/19/involved-revolving-maze/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong> Music Will Not Save You</strong></a>','Involved \"Revolving Maze\" Reviewed at Music Will Not Save You','','publish','closed','closed','','involved-revolving-maze-reviewed-at-music-will-not-save-you','','','2014-09-24 02:58:40','2014-09-24 02:58:40','',0,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/?p=10735',0,'post','',0),(10677,1,'2014-09-15 06:43:59','2014-09-15 06:43:59','[et_pb_section fullwidth=\"off\" specialty=\"on\" background_color=\"#050505\" inner_shadow=\"off\" parallax=\"off\" parallax_method=\"css\"][et_pb_column type=\"3_4\" specialty_columns=\"3\"][et_pb_row_inner][et_pb_column_inner type=\"4_4\"][et_pb_text admin_label=\"Text\" background_layout=\"light\" text_orientation=\"left\"]<h1>Brother Earth</h1><p><a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/Antonymes_1.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft  wp-image-9248\" src=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Brother-Earth-Bio-Shot-300x188.jpg\" alt=\"Brother Earth\" width=\"271\" height=\"170\" /></a>Brother Earth brings together the formidable talents of multi-instrumentalist Todd Tobias (Circus Devils) and vocalist Steve Five (The Library is on Fire).

The collaboration arose after Joe discovered and fell in love with Battlestations’ 2012 album <i>A Cold Embrace</i>. Joe contacted the band and sent them some of his previous work, Reivilo replied, and the Involved project was born.</p><p>Involved’s influences vary widely, including Tangerine Dream, Pet Shop Boys, Massive Attack, Cult of Luna, Anathema and Ulver. Their debut album <i>Revolving Maze</i> was constructed in fragments, with Joe and Reivilo sharing ideas and sounds entirely over the internet. Reivilo (keyboards, electronics, production) would send the basis for a track, and Joe (vocals, keyboards, production) would flesh out the melodies and add instrumental colour. They independently released the <i>Implant</i> EP in September 2013, and completed <i>Revolving Maze</i> in November 2013.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<h3>News</h3>[catlist name=involved-news content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]<br /> [/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]<h2>Reviews</h2>[catlist name=involved-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]<br /> [/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<h3>Press Releases</h3><p>No press releases yet, sorry!</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p>[gallery ids=\"10179\"][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3><p>No videos yet, sorry![/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]<h3>Licensing</h3><p>Involved\'s music is  available for licensing (master & sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

It is, however, a minority of  songs in the course of work, they reveal precisely the plurality of arrays of expression which is inspired by the project Involved, articulated both in cosmic dust from the beginnings of electronic music as in synthetic temptations of more direct ancestry eighties. From the fusion of these elements there is drawn such an original sound, not at all captivated by nostalgia but perfectly placed in an attitude that pays homage to the past, reworking, an operation in which every admirer of acid travel sci-fi can say that Dorsey and Enoignor succeed with respectful passion.\"\r\n\r\n-<a title=\"Music Will Not Save You\" href=\"http://musicwontsaveyou.com/2014/09/19/involved-revolving-maze/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong> Music Will Not Save You</strong></a>','Involved \"Revolving Maze\" Reviewed at Music Will Not Save You','','inherit','closed','closed','','10735-revision-v1','','','2014-09-24 02:58:40','2014-09-24 02:58:40','',10735,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/10735-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(10737,1,'2014-09-24 03:04:59','2014-09-24 03:04:59','\"We all need to escape reality sometimes.

In recent years many retro-infused ambient electronica albums have hit the musical sphere, some more successful than others, but not many hold that sense of adventure, that epic thrill. <strong>Revolving Maze</strong>, the debut album by the new international duo, <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/involved/\" target=\"_blank\">Involved</a>, is one of the more successful ’70s/’80s retro-infused ambient electronica albums that also hold a true sense of a Sci-Fi adventure.\r\n\r\nEven though <strong>Revolving Maze</strong> falls into that resurrecting, synth-soaked corner of the musical sphere, it doesn’t sound like a tribute album.

What we have here is a refreshing retro-style sonic tapestry highly capable of igniting the imagination. The eleven tracks reflect an alluring dialogue between lush sinister drifts and sweeping majestic bursts.

Press release states: <em>“<strong>Revolving Maze</strong> was constructed in fragments, with Joe and Reivilo sharing ideas and sounds entirely over the internet.”</em> Dorsey and Enoignor have created a multilayered and vigorous debut album full of luminosity and liquid elasticity.

Grothe’s musical explorations began by writing and recordings guitar-based songs at home, and over time his approach has become more experimental in nature. His current productions often evolve from live improvisation sessions, incorporating sound-manipulation software such as max/msp to develop a richly layered yet spacious sound. Grothe is also a member of the improvisational trio Unland, featuring ambient artist Jonas Meyer and clarinetist Shabnam Pavaresh.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<h3>News</h3>[catlist name=kryshe-news content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]<h2>Reviews</h2>[catlist name=kryshe-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]<p>No reviews yet, sorry!</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<h3>Press Releases</h3><p>No press releases yet, sorry!</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p>[gallery link=\"file\" ids=\"10297,10301,10300\"][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/DcbLFCvLlWY?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe><br /> Kryshe Liveset at Mimis Osnabrück.

We\'ve been spinning this album non-stop since we first got sent the demos so it\'s wonderful to finally be able to share it.\r\n\r\nThe album fuses the psychedelic sounds of ’70s kosmische with ’80s electronic and more modern ambient styles, creating evocative, cinematic music. However, rather than being revisionist, Involved curate fresh sounds from a musical palette that spans 40 years. Lush synth tones are deployed with an innate sense of melody, leading the listener through widescreen narratives of enviable scope. With <em>Revolving Maze</em>, the title says it all: this is complex, engrossing music that transforms with each spin.\r\n\r\n<em>\"Through solid musicianship, on both the parts of Dorsey and Enoignor, Involved has breached new ground.

From the shimmering, levitating tones of ‘Flussigirl’ to the rattling, dark drone-beat of ‘Il Tempo Di Capire’, Elisa Luu’s brilliant marriage of texture and composition is on virtuoso display.\r\n\r\nElisa Luu’s alchemical touch is in full bloom on this, her long-awaited second album for Hidden Shoal. Her uniquely crafted compositions carry a warmth and vulnerability that belies their digitally manipulated textures. The album takes the glorious blueprint of debut <em>Chromatic Sigh</em> and accentuates the highlights and shadows, making for a deliciously disorientating trip.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Chromatic Sigh</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 440px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2386771120/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://elisaluu.bandcamp.com/album/chromatic-sigh\">Chromatic Sigh by Elisa Luu</a></iframe>\r\nSeptember 2009\r\n<div></div>\r\nThough digitally crafted, <em>Chromatic Sigh</em> is warm, inviting and uniquely human, betraying a vulnerability and sensitivity that is rarely found in the male-dominated sphere of electronica. With its sighing, lilting qualities, Elisa Luu’s music reawakens a sense of childlike wonder and adventure with every sprawling and sparkling track. The album deftly moves in and out of the realms of ambient and electronica, creating a blissful, liminal realm where everything is rendered transformative.\r\n\r\nThe opening title track is a shifting kaleidoscope of drones, enveloping the listener with its gorgeous metallic haze. Single ‘The Garden’ creates a humid atmosphere of synths and glistening textures, carried aloft by crisp, skittering drum breaks. Melancholic centerpiece ‘Slow Bass Flute’ – which also appeared on debut EP Floating Sounds (Phantom Channel) – is so emotionally weighty that one can’t help but feel humbled in its presence. And album closer ‘Warn Plate’ is the gentle return to terra firma, leaving the listener conscious of having visited somewhere unique, complex and beautiful.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Unreleased</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/playlists/52927332&amp;color=000000&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=false&amp;show_user=false&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"500\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"></iframe>\r\n<div></div>\r\nA collection of previously unreleased tracks from Elisa Luu.

Elisa has been involved in a number of  musical projects over the years, including fusion quartet Prodotti Speciali and Short’s Monday Night Jazz Orchestra. She has also participated in Berklee Jazz clinics, where she received special mention as an alto sax player.\r\n\r\nIn 2007 Elisa began to compose electronic music using flute, saxophone and guitar as sound sources. Though digitally crafted, Elisa Luu’s music is warm, inviting and uniquely human, betraying a vulnerability and sensitivity that is rarely found in the male-dominated sphere of electronica.\r\n\r\nIn 2008, UK net label Phantom Channel released her debut EP <em>Floating Sounds</em>, which garnered glowing online reviews. <em>Chromatic Sigh</em> is her first full-length release.\r\n\r\nAccompanied by her two beloved dogs, Elisa is constantly creating new music in her home studio, away from the madding Roman bustle.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=elisa-luu content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]\r\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a title=\"Elisa Luu News\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/category/news/elisa-luu/\"><strong>More News</strong></a></p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]\r\n<h2>Reviews</h2>\r\n[catlist name=elisa-luu-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]\r\n<h3>Press Releases</h3>\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Elisa_Luu-Un_Giorno_Sospeso.pdf\"><em> Un Giorno Sospeso</em> Album Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Elisa_Luu-Se_Fosse_Per_Me.pdf\">‘Se fosse per me’ Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Elisa_Luu_Chromatic_Sigh.pdf\"><em>Chromatic Sigh</em> Album Digital Pre-Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Elisa_Luu_Single.pdf\">‘The Garden’ Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release_-_Elisa_Luu_Signing.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Elisa Luu Signing</a>\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]\r\n<h3>Artist Photos</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[gallery ids=\"8822,8823,8820\"]\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]\r\n<h3>Music Videos</h3>\r\nNo videos yet, sorry.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]\r\n<h3>Licensing</h3>\r\nElisa Luu\'s music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

The album takes the glorious blueprint of debut <em>Chromatic Sigh</em> and accentuates the highlights and shadows, making for a deliciously disorientating trip.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Chromatic Sigh</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 440px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2386771120/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://elisaluu.bandcamp.com/album/chromatic-sigh\">Chromatic Sigh by Elisa Luu</a></iframe><br /> September 2009</p><div> </div><p>Though digitally crafted, <em>Chromatic Sigh</em> is warm, inviting and uniquely human, betraying a vulnerability and sensitivity that is rarely found in the male-dominated sphere of electronica. With its sighing, lilting qualities, Elisa Luu’s music reawakens a sense of childlike wonder and adventure with every sprawling and sparkling track. The album deftly moves in and out of the realms of ambient and electronica, creating a blissful, liminal realm where everything is rendered transformative.</p><p>The opening title track is a shifting kaleidoscope of drones, enveloping the listener with its gorgeous metallic haze. Single ‘The Garden’ creates a humid atmosphere of synths and glistening textures, carried aloft by crisp, skittering drum breaks. Melancholic centerpiece ‘Slow Bass Flute’ – which also appeared on debut EP Floating Sounds (Phantom Channel) – is so emotionally weighty that one can’t help but feel humbled in its presence. And album closer ‘Warn Plate’ is the gentle return to terra firma, leaving the listener conscious of having visited somewhere unique, complex and beautiful.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Unreleased</h4><div> </div><p><iframe src=\"https://w.soundcloud.com/player/?url=https%3A//api.soundcloud.com/playlists/52927332&amp;color=000000&amp;auto_play=false&amp;hide_related=false&amp;show_comments=false&amp;show_user=false&amp;show_reposts=false\" width=\"500\" height=\"450\" frameborder=\"no\" scrolling=\"no\"></iframe></p><div> </div><p>A collection of previously unreleased tracks from Elisa Luu.
