The songs were written throughout 2012, with ideas collated, reviewed, developed and remixed. Following the wonderful results of his collaboration with Chloë March on <em>Europa</em> single ‘Edinburgh’, Joe Dürbeck presented the ideas for <em>Bloc4</em> to March and invited her to select tracks and develop vocal ideas. The March-fronted tracks, including first single ‘Blue Ceiling’ and new single ‘Flight’, are especially stunning – and offer a perfect counterbalance to the more melancholic, spacious instrumental pieces.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Europa</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 505px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3820650970/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://jumpel.bandcamp.com/album/europa\">Europa by Jumpel</a></iframe></p><div> </div><p>Inspired by Jo Dürbeck’s travels around Europe, <em>Europa</em> transforms Dürbeck’s personal memories of 11 different European locations into a gorgeous suite of minimal ambient electronica. The album acts as a kind of abstracted sonic diary, painting the intangibilities and romanticism of memory and travel using sparse yet resonant sound. A simple idea – and one that has produced Jumpel’s most restrained and unified effort to date.</p><p>Like many journeys, <em>Europa</em> begins with speculation and tentative steps. In ‘Arles’ and ‘Bern’, the delicate pattering of subtle rhythms is counterbalanced with delicate melodic figures, like light reflecting off water. In ‘Stockholm’, disembodied voices and more forceful rhythms seep into the mix as the album heads towards a beatific plateau of sorts with its central trio of ‘Rom’, ‘Madrid’ and single ‘Edinburgh’. Beautifully evoking the rain-soaked streets of the Scottish capital, refracted through a personal lens, ‘Edinburgh’ is an exercise in elegance and restraint, filling out the shadows and backstreets with ennui. Melancholic piano chords carry the track forward while electronic texture’s weave amid Chloë March’s luminous lyrical play. A departure – yet also an arrival.</p><p>\'Wien\' simply aches with melancholic introspection, tracing one of travel’s most wonderfully paradoxical sensations – the feeling of looking back while moving forward. \'Mailand\' continues the introspective thread, gliding gracefully into the ambient dub of \'Lissabon\', followed by the wonderfully understated electronica and found sound of closer \'Koeln\'. Rather than a final point on the journey, \'Koeln\' offers a rest point and an understanding that there is always another destination in queue.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Deuxième Bureau</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 540px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2007888569/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://jumpel.bandcamp.com/album/deuxi-me-bureau\">Deuxième Bureau by Jumpel</a></iframe></p><div> </div><p><em>Deuxième Bureau</em> is a further refinement of the Jumpel sound so wonderfully displayed on debut album <em>Samuel Jason Lies On The Beach</em>.

The album serves as a testament to the power of careful distillation and minimalism, exuding an emotional complexity that belies its seemingly simple surface. Tracks were borne out of discrete nocturnal recording sessions where ideas sparked from a range of disparate sources: an old drum machine, a radio announcement, a forgotten guitar chord. Through a process of layering and weaving, the album began to take shape. Opaque electronic textures act like sinew, binding themselves to piano and string melodies. The result is an album that must be heard as a whole, yet seems to exist without a real beginning or end.</p><p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]</p><h3>Biography</h3><p>Jumpel began life in 2005 when Jo Dürbeck, formerly of the German band Bones, began to write and record his own music. Prior to Bones, Jo’s formative musical experiences involved playing with empty detergent cans, boxes and a piano in his parents’ cellar. In 1986 he bought a Commodore C-64 computer and discovered electronic music.</p><p>Jo played keyboards, samples and loops in Bones, who over the course of eight years released three albums and seven singles with EMI Germany, and played over 400 gigs in Germany, the Netherlands and the UK. Then, after splitting up the band, Jo and Rene (Bones’ singer) founded their own company and studio and started writing and producing music for films. They wrote scores for numerous films and documentaries, and won the award for Best Score at the Filmfestival Valencia in 2006.</p><p>Despite his obvious mastery of the dizzying possibilities afforded by technology, Jumpel crafts music of intense intimacy and humanity. His albums serve as testament to the power of careful distillation and minimalism, exuding an emotional complexity that belies their seemingly simple surfaces.

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\"]<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.</p><p>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.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<h3>News</h3>[catlist name=antonymes-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=antonymes-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<h3>Press Releases</h3><p> </p><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></p><p><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></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes-Endlessly.pdf\"><em>The Licence To Interpret Dreams</em> Album</a></p><p><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></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p>[gallery ids=\"8222,8221,8220,8219\"][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/U7tLhh8a1lo?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/4senhm9eiTY?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]<h3>Licensing</h3><p>Antonymes music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

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\"]<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.</p><p>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.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<h3>News</h3>[catlist name=antonymes-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=antonymes-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<h3>Press Releases</h3><p> </p><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></p><p><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></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes-Endlessly.pdf\"><em>The Licence To Interpret Dreams</em> Album</a></p><p><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></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p>[gallery ids=\"8222,8221,8220,8219\"][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/U7tLhh8a1lo?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/4senhm9eiTY?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]<h3>Licensing</h3><p>Antonymes music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

Each song deploys a modest array of instruments and textures, giving them ample space to breathe and glow.

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\"]<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.</p><p>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.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<h3>News</h3>[catlist name=antonymes-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=antonymes-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<h3>Press Releases</h3><p> </p><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></p><p><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></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes-Endlessly.pdf\"><em>The Licence To Interpret Dreams</em> Album</a></p><p><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></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p>[gallery ids=\"8222,8221,8220,8219\"][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/U7tLhh8a1lo?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/4senhm9eiTY?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]<h3>Licensing</h3><p>Antonymes music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

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\"]<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.</p><p>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 songs were written throughout 2012, with ideas collated, reviewed, developed and remixed.

A simple idea – and one that has produced Jumpel’s most restrained and unified effort to date.</p><p>Like many journeys, <em>Europa</em> begins with speculation and tentative steps. In ‘Arles’ and ‘Bern’, the delicate pattering of subtle rhythms is counterbalanced with delicate melodic figures, like light reflecting off water. In ‘Stockholm’, disembodied voices and more forceful rhythms seep into the mix as the album heads towards a beatific plateau of sorts with its central trio of ‘Rom’, ‘Madrid’ and single ‘Edinburgh’. Beautifully evoking the rain-soaked streets of the Scottish capital, refracted through a personal lens, ‘Edinburgh’ is an exercise in elegance and restraint, filling out the shadows and backstreets with ennui. Melancholic piano chords carry the track forward while electronic texture’s weave amid Chloë March’s luminous lyrical play.

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.</p><p>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.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<h3>News</h3>[catlist name=antonymes-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=antonymes-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<h3>Press Releases</h3><p> </p><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></p><p><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></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes-Endlessly.pdf\"><em>The Licence To Interpret Dreams</em> Album</a></p><p><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></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p>[gallery ids=\"8222,8221,8220,8219\"][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/U7tLhh8a1lo?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/4senhm9eiTY?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]<h3>Licensing</h3><p>Antonymes music is  available for licensing (master & sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

In ‘Stockholm’, disembodied voices and more forceful rhythms seep into the mix as the album heads towards a beatific plateau of sorts with its central trio of ‘Rom’, ‘Madrid’ and single ‘Edinburgh’. Beautifully evoking the rain-soaked streets of the Scottish capital, refracted through a personal lens, ‘Edinburgh’ is an exercise in elegance and restraint, filling out the shadows and backstreets with ennui.

Tracks were borne out of discrete nocturnal recording sessions where ideas sparked from a range of disparate sources: an old drum machine, a radio announcement, a forgotten guitar chord. Through a process of layering and weaving, the album began to take shape. Opaque electronic textures act like sinew, binding themselves to piano and string melodies.

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.</p><p>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.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<h3>News</h3>[catlist name=antonymes-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=antonymes-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<h3>Press Releases</h3><p> </p><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></p><p><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></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes-Endlessly.pdf\"><em>The Licence To Interpret Dreams</em> Album</a></p><p><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></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p>[gallery ids=\"8222,8221,8220,8219\"][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/U7tLhh8a1lo?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/4senhm9eiTY?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]<h3>Licensing</h3><p>Antonymes music is  available for licensing (master & sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

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.</p><p>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.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<h3>News</h3>[catlist name=antonymes-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=antonymes-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<h3>Press Releases</h3><p> </p><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></p><p><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></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes-Endlessly.pdf\"><em>The Licence To Interpret Dreams</em> Album</a></p><p><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></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p>[gallery ids=\"8222,8221,8220,8219\"][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/U7tLhh8a1lo?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/4senhm9eiTY?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]<h3>Licensing</h3><p>Antonymes music is  available for licensing (master & sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

Prior to Bones, Jo’s formative musical experiences involved playing with empty detergent cans, boxes and a piano in his parents’ cellar. In 1986 he bought a Commodore C-64 computer and discovered electronic music.</p><p>Jo played keyboards, samples and loops in Bones, who over the course of eight years released three albums and seven singles with EMI Germany, and played over 400 gigs in Germany, the Netherlands and the UK. Then, after splitting up the band, Jo and Rene (Bones’ singer) founded their own company and studio and started writing and producing music for films. They wrote scores for numerous films and documentaries, and won the award for Best Score at the Filmfestival Valencia in 2006.</p><p>Despite his obvious mastery of the dizzying possibilities afforded by technology, Jumpel crafts music of intense intimacy and humanity. His albums serve as testament to the power of careful distillation and minimalism, exuding an emotional complexity that belies their seemingly simple surfaces.

The songs were written throughout 2012, with ideas collated, reviewed, developed and remixed. Following the wonderful results of his collaboration with Chloë March on <em>Europa</em> single ‘Edinburgh’, Joe Dürbeck presented the ideas for <em>Bloc4</em> to March and invited her to select tracks and develop vocal ideas. The March-fronted tracks, including first single ‘Blue Ceiling’ and new single ‘Flight’, are especially stunning – and offer a perfect counterbalance to the more melancholic, spacious instrumental pieces.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Europa</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 505px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3820650970/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://jumpel.bandcamp.com/album/europa\">Europa by Jumpel</a></iframe></p><div> </div><p>Inspired by Jo Dürbeck’s travels around Europe, <em>Europa</em> transforms Dürbeck’s personal memories of 11 different European locations into a gorgeous suite of minimal ambient electronica. The album acts as a kind of abstracted sonic diary, painting the intangibilities and romanticism of memory and travel using sparse yet resonant sound. A simple idea – and one that has produced Jumpel’s most restrained and unified effort to date.</p><p>Like many journeys, <em>Europa</em> begins with speculation and tentative steps. In ‘Arles’ and ‘Bern’, the delicate pattering of subtle rhythms is counterbalanced with delicate melodic figures, like light reflecting off water. In ‘Stockholm’, disembodied voices and more forceful rhythms seep into the mix as the album heads towards a beatific plateau of sorts with its central trio of ‘Rom’, ‘Madrid’ and single ‘Edinburgh’. Beautifully evoking the rain-soaked streets of the Scottish capital, refracted through a personal lens, ‘Edinburgh’ is an exercise in elegance and restraint, filling out the shadows and backstreets with ennui. Melancholic piano chords carry the track forward while electronic texture’s weave amid Chloë March’s luminous lyrical play. A departure – yet also an arrival.</p><p>\'Wien\' simply aches with melancholic introspection, tracing one of travel’s most wonderfully paradoxical sensations – the feeling of looking back while moving forward. \'Mailand\' continues the introspective thread, gliding gracefully into the ambient dub of \'Lissabon\', followed by the wonderfully understated electronica and found sound of closer \'Koeln\'. Rather than a final point on the journey, \'Koeln\' offers a rest point and an understanding that there is always another destination in queue.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Deuxième Bureau</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 540px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2007888569/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://jumpel.bandcamp.com/album/deuxi-me-bureau\">Deuxième Bureau by Jumpel</a></iframe></p><div> </div><p><em>Deuxième Bureau</em> is a further refinement of the Jumpel sound so wonderfully displayed on debut album <em>Samuel Jason Lies On The Beach</em>.

The album serves as a testament to the power of careful distillation and minimalism, exuding an emotional complexity that belies its seemingly simple surface. Tracks were borne out of discrete nocturnal recording sessions where ideas sparked from a range of disparate sources: an old drum machine, a radio announcement, a forgotten guitar chord. Through a process of layering and weaving, the album began to take shape. Opaque electronic textures act like sinew, binding themselves to piano and string melodies. The result is an album that must be heard as a whole, yet seems to exist without a real beginning or end.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]<h3>Biography</h3><p>Jumpel began life in 2005 when Jo Dürbeck, formerly of the German band Bones, began to write and record his own music. Prior to Bones, Jo’s formative musical experiences involved playing with empty detergent cans, boxes and a piano in his parents’ cellar. In 1986 he bought a Commodore C-64 computer and discovered electronic music.</p><p>Jo played keyboards, samples and loops in Bones, who over the course of eight years released three albums and seven singles with EMI Germany, and played over 400 gigs in Germany, the Netherlands and the UK. Then, after splitting up the band, Jo and Rene (Bones’ singer) founded their own company and studio and started writing and producing music for films. They wrote scores for numerous films and documentaries, and won the award for Best Score at the Filmfestival Valencia in 2006.</p><p>Despite his obvious mastery of the dizzying possibilities afforded by technology, Jumpel crafts music of intense intimacy and humanity.

As the 700 ticket-holders took to their seats and the theatre dimmed to a single amber light, Kramies walked on stage to perform his haunting, romantic songs. This is a recording of that night.\r\n\r\n<em>forêts antiques</em> is the new live EP by singer-songwriter Kramies, featuring recordings of tracks from his acclaimed EPs, plus a previously unreleased song.\r\n<h4>The Fate That Never Favored Us</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 120px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=4058454627/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/tracklist=false/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-fate-that-never-favored-us\">The Fate That Never Favored Us by Kramies</a></iframe>\r\nMarch 2015\r\n\r\nAhead of his forthcoming French tour, dream-pop troubadour Kramies has dropped another gorgeous track produced by Jason Lytle (Grandaddy). ‘The Fate That Never Favored Us’ is a lilting, swaying cosmic waltz, delicately built around melancholy acoustic guitar and eerie synths, through which Kramies weaves his languid vocals. As with so much of his music, Kramies delivers soundtracks to moments rather than mere songs.\r\n<h4>The Folklore Sessions</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 274px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2676132242/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-folklore-sessions\">The Folklore Sessions by Kramies</a></iframe>\r\nMay 2014\r\n<div></div>\r\n<em>The Folklore Sessions</em> is the free new EP by dream-pop singer-songwriter Kramies, featuring acoustic versions of songs from his two acclaimed Hidden Shoal EPs <em>The European</em> and <em>The Wooden Heart</em>, plus the beautiful piano talents of Grant Wilson (from Syfy\'s Ghost Hunters). While his previous EPs mined a wonderfully rich seam of atmospheric yet epic songcraft, <em>The Folklore Sessions</em> demonstrates that Kramies’ songwriting is just as stunning without the undeniable production talents of Jason Lytle (Grandaddy) and Todd Tobias (Guided By Voices, Robert Pollard, Circus Devils). With just his voice and acoustic guitar, plus languid piano backing by Grant Wilson (of Ghost Hunters TV show fame), these stripped-back versions of <em>The European</em>’s ‘Antiquarian Days’, <em>The Wooden Heart</em>’s title track and ‘Sea Otter Cottage’ are given vivid new life through Kramies’ genuinely affecting performances.\r\n<h4>The Wooden Heart</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 340px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2389044161/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-wooden-heart\">The Wooden Heart by Kramies</a></iframe>\r\nOctober 2013\r\n<div></div>\r\n<em>The Wooden Heart</em> is the luscious and expansive new EP from Colorado-based dream-pop artist Kramies. The EP features the production and instrumental talents of Jason Lytle of Grandaddy fame, along with the inimitable production and additional instrumentation of Robert Pollard co-conspirator Todd Tobias. <em>The Wooden Heart</em> mines a wonderfully rich seam of atmospheric yet epic songcraft that Kramies has made his own. From the throbbing ambient introduction of ‘The Beginning’ through to the delicate folk of ‘The Ending’, Kramies’ new EP covers vast emotional and musical terrain during its 23-minute run-time. The title track’s windswept grandeur is married to an emotional directness that demands your attention and doesn’t let go, ‘Sea Otter Cottage’ sways and swoons with an almost unbearable poignancy, and ‘Clocks Were All Broken’ both alludes to and embodies this music’s timeless appeal. In addition to Todd Tobias’s production (on ‘The Beginning’, ‘The Wooden Heart’, ‘Upon The Northern Isles’ and ‘The Ending’), <em>The Wooden Heart</em> EP also features the production and instrumental talents of Jason Lytle of Grandaddy fame (on ‘Sea Otter Cottage’ and ‘Clocks Were All Broken’). Rounded out by the beautiful artwork of French photographer Jérôme Sevrette, The Wooden Heart EP is a lovingly constructed work of art.\r\n<h4>The European</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 307px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2414891436/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-european\">The European by Kramies</a></iframe>\r\nNovember 2011\r\n<div></div>\r\nProduced by Todd Tobias (Guided By Voices, Robert Pollard, Circus Devils), <em>The European</em> sets Kramies’ gorgeous voice and acoustic guitar within a glowing tableau, epic in scope yet delicate in detail. The EP fades into view with ‘Intro’, a simple cyclical pattern of guitar, piano and vocals gradually subsumed by drones and distortion. This leads into the majestic, glacial sway of the title track, guaranteed to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end. Then, ‘Inventors’ is the album’s dark, shadowy heart, a ballad of subtle intensity. Single ‘Coal Miners Executive Club’ is an emotionally resonant vortex of swooning pop built around an absolutely heartbreaking chord progression on synthesizer, carried skyward as layers and layers of instruments build and build. And the closing ‘Antiquarian Days’ is a fitting fade towards a sepia horizon, burbling loops and chiming guitars accompanying Kramies’ gentle lament.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\nDutch-American singer-songwriter Kramies Windt began writing songs at the age of 14 after buying his first synth, acoustic guitar and four-track cassette recorder at an estate sale in his home town of Cleveland, Ohio. Even though he was never really exposed to any music other than old Dutch Christmas records his family had lying around when he was a kid, their haunting sound would shape the direction of his future songwriting.\r\n\r\nKramies started forming and playing in bands around the age of 16, and by the age of 19, the bands he formed became based around the songs he was writing. The bands took on many forms, playing the underground music scene from Ohio to Chicago. Come the late ’90s, Kramies developed his own sound, based around old-world imagery of cobblestone streets, old trains and castles, and romantic, poetic moments. Kramies and his band went on to open for Spiritualized, Grandaddy, Yo La Tengo, Calexico, Stereolab, Dirty Three and Red House Painters.\r\n\r\nCome 2004, Kramies decided to focus on writing and recording in the studio, and began working with producer and engineer Todd Tobias (Guided By Voices, Robert Pollard) and guitarist David Paolucci. Working with Todd and David, Kramies released two albums to critical acclaim: Golden Like A New Thing (ACM, 2008) and Castle of Ghosts (ACM, 2010).\r\n\r\nIn 2010 Kramies began writing the songs for his first Hidden Shoal release, The European EP, in his coat closet in Colorado. The songs were demoed on four-track, painting a vivid sonic picture of the direction the release would take, drawing on the haunting old-world imagery he loved so much as a kid. The demos were sent to David Paolucci to start working on guitar parts in Ohio. Kramies then toured Ireland, playing really old pubs and small concert halls, which brought new ideas and layers to the songs. The European EP was recorded in June and July 2011 with Todd Tobias, with prominent, swirling guitar work from Dave Paolucci.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=kramies-news content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]\r\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong><a title=\"More Kramies News\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/category/news/kramies-news/\">More News</a></strong></p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]\r\n<h2>Reviews</h2>\r\n[catlist name=kramies-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]\r\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a title=\"Kramies Reviews\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/category/reviews/kramies-reviews/\"><strong>More Reviews</strong></a></p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]\r\n<h3>Press Releases</h3>\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/Press_Release-Kramies-The_Folklore_Sessions_EP.pdf\">Kramies <em>The Folklore Sessions</em> EP Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Kramies-The_Wooden_Heart_EP.pdf\">Kramies <em>The Wooden Heart</em> Album Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Kramies-The_Wooden_Heart%28Single%29.pdf\">Kramies ‘The Wooden Heart’ Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Kramies-The_European.pdf\">Kramies – <em>The European</em> EP Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Kramies-Coal_Miners_Executive_Club.pdf\">Kramies – ‘Coal Miners Executive Club’ Single Release</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=\"9000,8999,9001\"]\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]\r\n<h3>Music Videos</h3>\r\n<iframe src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/RM6BtRhdOzM?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe> <iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/uM1_Ov-ont0?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe> <iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/-l4F8vCH8MM?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe> <iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/vOHV7ZWshkM?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe> <iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/TdmV4aOSmxE?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe> <iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/C5865MiACPA?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe> <iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/KxAnc3dj3b0?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]\r\n<h3>Licensing</h3>\r\nKramies\' music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

Each song deploys a modest array of instruments and textures, giving them ample space to breathe and glow.

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\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\nAntonymes 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.\r\n\r\nDebut 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.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=antonymes-news content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]\r\n<h2>Reviews</h2>\r\n[catlist name=antonymes-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&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<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>\r\n\r\n<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>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes-Endlessly.pdf\"><em>The Licence To Interpret Dreams</em> Album</a>\r\n\r\n<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>\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=\"8222,8221,8220,8219\"]\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]\r\n<h3>Music Videos</h3>\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/U7tLhh8a1lo?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/4senhm9eiTY?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]\r\n<h3>Licensing</h3>\r\nAntonymes music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

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\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\n<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.</p>\r\n<p>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.</p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=antonymes-news content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]\r\n<h2>Reviews</h2>\r\n[catlist name=antonymes-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<p>&nbsp;</p>\r\n<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></p>\r\n<p><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></p>\r\n<p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes-Endlessly.pdf\"><em>The Licence To Interpret Dreams</em> Album</a></p>\r\n<p><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></p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]\r\n<h3>Artist Photos</h3>\r\n<p>&nbsp;</p>\r\n[gallery ids=\"8222,8221,8220,8219\"]\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]\r\n<h3>Music Videos</h3>\r\n<p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/U7tLhh8a1lo?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>\r\n<p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/4senhm9eiTY?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]\r\n<h3>Licensing</h3>\r\n<p>Antonymes music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

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. 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\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\n<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.</p>\r\n<p>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.</p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=antonymes-news content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]\r\n<h2>Reviews</h2>\r\n[catlist name=antonymes-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<p>&nbsp;</p>\r\n<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></p>\r\n<p><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></p>\r\n<p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Antonymes-Endlessly.pdf\"><em>The Licence To Interpret Dreams</em> Album</a></p>\r\n<p><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></p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]\r\n<h3>Artist Photos</h3>\r\n<p>&nbsp;</p>\r\n[gallery ids=\"8222,8221,8220,8219\"]<br />\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]\r\n<h3>Music Videos</h3>\r\n<p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/U7tLhh8a1lo?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>\r\n<p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/4senhm9eiTY?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]\r\n<h3>Licensing</h3>\r\n<p>Antonymes music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

The album acts as a kind of abstracted sonic diary, painting the intangibilities and romanticism of memory and travel using sparse yet resonant sound. A simple idea – and one that has produced Jumpel’s most restrained and unified effort to date.</p><p>Like many journeys, <em>Europa</em> begins with speculation and tentative steps. In ‘Arles’ and ‘Bern’, the delicate pattering of subtle rhythms is counterbalanced with delicate melodic figures, like light reflecting off water. In ‘Stockholm’, disembodied voices and more forceful rhythms seep into the mix as the album heads towards a beatific plateau of sorts with its central trio of ‘Rom’, ‘Madrid’ and single ‘Edinburgh’. Beautifully evoking the rain-soaked streets of the Scottish capital, refracted through a personal lens, ‘Edinburgh’ is an exercise in elegance and restraint, filling out the shadows and backstreets with ennui. Melancholic piano chords carry the track forward while electronic texture’s weave amid Chloë March’s luminous lyrical play. A departure – yet also an arrival.</p><p>\'Wien\' simply aches with melancholic introspection, tracing one of travel’s most wonderfully paradoxical sensations – the feeling of looking back while moving forward. \'Mailand\' continues the introspective thread, gliding gracefully into the ambient dub of \'Lissabon\', followed by the wonderfully understated electronica and found sound of closer \'Koeln\'. Rather than a final point on the journey, \'Koeln\' offers a rest point and an understanding that there is always another destination in queue.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Deuxième Bureau</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 540px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2007888569/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://jumpel.bandcamp.com/album/deuxi-me-bureau\">Deuxième Bureau by Jumpel</a></iframe></p><div> </div><p><em>Deuxième Bureau</em> is a further refinement of the Jumpel sound so wonderfully displayed on debut album <em>Samuel Jason Lies On The Beach</em>.

The album serves as a testament to the power of careful distillation and minimalism, exuding an emotional complexity that belies its seemingly simple surface. Tracks were borne out of discrete nocturnal recording sessions where ideas sparked from a range of disparate sources: an old drum machine, a radio announcement, a forgotten guitar chord. Through a process of layering and weaving, the album began to take shape. Opaque electronic textures act like sinew, binding themselves to piano and string melodies. The result is an album that must be heard as a whole, yet seems to exist without a real beginning or end.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]<h3>Biography</h3><p>Jumpel began life in 2005 when Jo Dürbeck, formerly of the German band Bones, began to write and record his own music. Prior to Bones, Jo’s formative musical experiences involved playing with empty detergent cans, boxes and a piano in his parents’ cellar. In 1986 he bought a Commodore C-64 computer and discovered electronic music.</p><p>Jo played keyboards, samples and loops in Bones, who over the course of eight years released three albums and seven singles with EMI Germany, and played over 400 gigs in Germany, the Netherlands and the UK. Then, after splitting up the band, Jo and Rene (Bones’ singer) founded their own company and studio and started writing and producing music for films. They wrote scores for numerous films and documentaries, and won the award for Best Score at the Filmfestival Valencia in 2006.</p><p>Despite his obvious mastery of the dizzying possibilities afforded by technology, Jumpel crafts music of intense intimacy and humanity. His albums serve as testament to the power of careful distillation and minimalism, exuding an emotional complexity that belies their seemingly simple surfaces.

Rather than a final point on the journey, \'Koeln\' offers a rest point and an understanding that there is always another destination in queue.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Deuxième Bureau</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 540px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2007888569/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://jumpel.bandcamp.com/album/deuxi-me-bureau\">Deuxième Bureau by Jumpel</a></iframe><br />February 2009</p><div> </div><p><em>Deuxième Bureau</em> is a further refinement of the Jumpel sound so wonderfully displayed on debut album <em>Samuel Jason Lies On The Beach</em>. Like perfectly fabricated ecosystems, each track is a luscious miniature environment complete with its own microclimate and prismatic inhabitants. The attention to detail in the music is consistently astonishing, rewarding close listening with a good pair of headphones. <em>Deuxième Bureau</em> is a fabric of intimate moments – some parts woven tightly, others open to the air – and an enticing invitation to explore Jumpel’s delicate and immersive ambient micro-pop.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Samuel Jason Lies On the Beach</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 570px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3069050201/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://jumpel.bandcamp.com/album/samuel-jason-lies-on-the-beach\">Samuel Jason Lies On the Beach by Jumpel</a></iframe><br />August 2007</p><div> </div><p>Despite its obvious mastery of the dizzying possibilities afforded by technology, Jumpel’s debut album Samuel Jason Lies On The Beach is a work of intense intimacy and humanity. The album serves as a testament to the power of careful distillation and minimalism, exuding an emotional complexity that belies its seemingly simple surface. Tracks were borne out of discrete nocturnal recording sessions where ideas sparked from a range of disparate sources: an old drum machine, a radio announcement, a forgotten guitar chord. Through a process of layering and weaving, the album began to take shape. Opaque electronic textures act like sinew, binding themselves to piano and string melodies. The result is an album that must be heard as a whole, yet seems to exist without a real beginning or end.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]<h3>Biography</h3><p>Jumpel began life in 2005 when Jo Dürbeck, formerly of the German band Bones, began to write and record his own music. Prior to Bones, Jo’s formative musical experiences involved playing with empty detergent cans, boxes and a piano in his parents’ cellar. In 1986 he bought a Commodore C-64 computer and discovered electronic music.</p><p>Jo played keyboards, samples and loops in Bones, who over the course of eight years released three albums and seven singles with EMI Germany, and played over 400 gigs in Germany, the Netherlands and the UK. Then, after splitting up the band, Jo and Rene (Bones’ singer) founded their own company and studio and started writing and producing music for films. They wrote scores for numerous films and documentaries, and won the award for Best Score at the Filmfestival Valencia in 2006.</p><p>Despite his obvious mastery of the dizzying possibilities afforded by technology, Jumpel crafts music of intense intimacy and humanity. His albums serve as testament to the power of careful distillation and minimalism, exuding an emotional complexity that belies their seemingly simple surfaces. The albums must be heard as a whole, yet seem to exist without a real beginning or end.</p><p> </p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<h3>News</h3>[catlist name=jumpel content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]<h2>Reviews</h2>[catlist name=jumpel-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<h3>Press Releases</h3><p> </p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Jumpel-Bloc4.pdf\"> Jumpel <em>Bloc4</em> Album Release</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Jumpel-Flight.pdf\">‘Flight’ Single Release</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Jumpel-Blue_Ceiling.pdf\">‘Blue Ceiling’ Single Release</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Jumpel-Europa.pdf\"><em>Europa </em>Album Release</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Jumpel-Edinburgh.pdf\">‘Edinburgh’ Single Release</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Jumpel-Deuxi%C3%A8me_Bureau_CD_Release.pdf\"><em>Deuxième Bureau</em> Official CD Release</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Jumpel-Quicken_Belts_Single.pdf\">‘Quicken Belts’ Single Release</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Jumpel_Album.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Samuel Jason Lies On The Beach Album Release</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Jumpel_and_Cheekbone_Signings.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">Jumpel Signing</a></p><p> [/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p>[gallery ids=\"8963,8966,8964,8962,8965,8967\"][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/w9tj8RrRias?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/qSBhIDaq3sw?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/TmM31EinABw?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/Ju9VxpD73h0?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/fXX46GCwfcY?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]<h3>Licensing</h3><p>Jumpel\'s music is  available for licensing (master & sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

Tin Manzano’s remix of the title track from <em>Machine Is My Animal</em> is a gorgeously seductive instrumental, where restraint and space are as alluring as the sounds blooming across the stereo field. Syntaks bring their trademark wavering dream-gaze to ‘Victor! Burn City Lights’, resulting in a tantalising, sticky web of melody and beats. M-13’s take on ‘Stranger Than Fiction’ bitcrushes the original to produce an incredibly addictive slice of dreamy electroclash.\r\n\r\nSlow Dancing Society’s remix of ‘Moon in the Sea’ (from <em>The Spook</em> EP) is as epic and mesmerising as anyone familiar with the SDS catalogue would expect. Tim Koch’s restructuring of ‘BMX’ is masterful, rebuilt from the inside out into stunning avant-pop architecture. Jatun renders ‘Control’ as a fuzzed-out shoegaze surge, before Manual (Jonas Munk) closes the album with his remix of ‘Skeletons’, blurry and sensuous as a half-remembered dream.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Machine Is My Animal</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 439px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2915036973/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://music.cityofsatellites.com/album/machine-is-my-animal\">Machine Is My Animal by City of Satellites</a></iframe>\r\nNovember 2009\r\n<div></div>\r\nOn <em>Machine Is My Animal</em>, City of Satellites deliver on the exceptional promise of their debut EP <em>The Spook</em> – and then some. This pristine album synthesizes ’80s pop aesthetics with ’00s production values to create a truly monumental sound. From the Eastern-influenced synth lines of superb opener ‘BMX’ to the crystalline drift of closer ‘Sky Rider’, Machine Is My Animal carries the listener through a glistening science fiction future, as viewed from a wistful child’s window.\r\n\r\nOn single ‘Stranger Than Fiction’, swirling synth sounds, Thomas Diakomichalis’ propulsive drumming and Jarrod Manuel’s pure vocal tones glide beautifully. Its aching melodies to the fore, the song taking heartrending turns before dissolving into the ether. ‘Skeletons’ glides and weaves like a hovercar over the course of seven levitating minutes, before the epic title track stomps across a dystopian future like a Transformer with a conscience, its robot heart bleeding as its surveys the devastation it has wrought. This balance between cold synthesized tones and a warm emotional heart creates a delicious balance throughout.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>The Spook</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 241px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=895332589/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://music.cityofsatellites.com/album/the-spook\">The Spook by City of Satellites</a></iframe>\r\nNovember 2008\r\n<div></div>\r\nAcross its three expansive tracks, <em>The Spook</em> covers more musical and emotional ground than most full-length albums. Majestic synthscapes are punctuated by pounding rhythms, melodic themes are afforded the space and time to elegantly unfold, and the whole amounts to so much more than the sum of its undeniably beautiful parts.\r\n\r\nThe full length version of single ‘Moon In The Sea’ opens the EP with delayed guitars, bass and drums swathed in an eerie mist of synths and chimes, above which Jarrod Manuel’s emotive vocals shine clear and true. Then, the loping grandeur of ‘Sleeping Disgrace’ threads backwards guitar loops and drones through a landscape of post-rock-coated opium pop. And the stunning title track sends shivers up the spine as it layers soaring synths across a glistening bed of guitars, bringing the listener back down to earth as its draw the EP to a close. Like all the best atmospheric music, the whole EP breathes and throbs with life, ebbing and flowing beautifully throughout its near-25-minute running time.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\nCity of Satellites is a dream pop/shoegaze trio whose members are divided geographically between Australia and the USA.

Jatun renders ‘Control’ as a fuzzed-out shoegaze surge, before Manual (Jonas Munk) closes the album with his remix of ‘Skeletons’, blurry and sensuous as a half-remembered dream.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Machine Is My Animal</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 439px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2915036973/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://music.cityofsatellites.com/album/machine-is-my-animal\">Machine Is My Animal by City of Satellites</a></iframe><br />November 2009</p><div> </div><p>On <em>Machine Is My Animal</em>, City of Satellites deliver on the exceptional promise of their debut EP <em>The Spook</em> – and then some. This pristine album synthesizes ’80s pop aesthetics with ’00s production values to create a truly monumental sound. From the Eastern-influenced synth lines of superb opener ‘BMX’ to the crystalline drift of closer ‘Sky Rider’, Machine Is My Animal carries the listener through a glistening science fiction future, as viewed from a wistful child’s window.</p><p>On single ‘Stranger Than Fiction’, swirling synth sounds, Thomas Diakomichalis’ propulsive drumming and Jarrod Manuel’s pure vocal tones glide beautifully. Its aching melodies to the fore, the song taking heartrending turns before dissolving into the ether. ‘Skeletons’ glides and weaves like a hovercar over the course of seven levitating minutes, before the epic title track stomps across a dystopian future like a Transformer with a conscience, its robot heart bleeding as its surveys the devastation it has wrought. This balance between cold synthesized tones and a warm emotional heart creates a delicious balance throughout.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>The Spook</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 241px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=895332589/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://music.cityofsatellites.com/album/the-spook\">The Spook by City of Satellites</a></iframe><br />November 2008</p><div> </div><p>Across its three expansive tracks, <em>The Spook</em> covers more musical and emotional ground than most full-length albums. Majestic synthscapes are punctuated by pounding rhythms, melodic themes are afforded the space and time to elegantly unfold, and the whole amounts to so much more than the sum of its undeniably beautiful parts.</p><p>The full length version of single ‘Moon In The Sea’ opens the EP with delayed guitars, bass and drums swathed in an eerie mist of synths and chimes, above which Jarrod Manuel’s emotive vocals shine clear and true. Then, the loping grandeur of ‘Sleeping Disgrace’ threads backwards guitar loops and drones through a landscape of post-rock-coated opium pop. And the stunning title track sends shivers up the spine as it layers soaring synths across a glistening bed of guitars, bringing the listener back down to earth as its draw the EP to a close. Like all the best atmospheric music, the whole EP breathes and throbs with life, ebbing and flowing beautifully throughout its near-25-minute running time.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]<br />\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\n<p>City of Satellites is a dream pop/shoegaze trio whose members are divided geographically between Australia and the USA. Jarrod Manuel (vocals, guitars, synthesizers) is based in Adelaide, Australia; Thomas Diakomichalis (drums, synthesizers and production) is based in New York City, USA; Drew Sullivan (guitars, synthesizers and production) is based in Spokane, USA.</p>\r\n<p>City of Satellites’ hook-laden, cinematically-inspired music showcases an effortless and heavily seductive blend of acoustic, electronic and human sounds; shimmering guitars and vaporous synthesizer tapestries creep in like the darkness across a desolate metropolis; iceladen drums snap and pulse, often breaking songs apart only to rebuild them like some kind of experimental toy robot. All the while, syrupy sweet, abstract vocal passages are whispered to the listener, intoxicating melodies behaving like bridges throughout a beautiful cosmic playground.</p>\r\n<p> </p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<br />\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=city-of-satellites content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]<br />\r\n<h2>Reviews</h2>\r\n[catlist name=city-of-satellites-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<br />\r\n<h3>Press Releases</h3>\r\n<p> </p>\r\n<p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/The_Momentary_Mask_Press_Release.pdf\">The Momentary Mask EP Release</a></p>\r\n<p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-City_of_Satellites-MIMA_Remix.pdf\">‘Machine Is My Animal (Tin Manzano Remix)’ Single and Music Video</a></p>\r\n<p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-City_of_Satellites-BMX_Single_and_Music_Video.pdf\">‘BMX’ Single and Music Video Release</a></p>\r\n<p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-City_of_Satellites-Machine_is_My_Animal_CD_Release.pdf\"><em>Machine Is My Animal</em> Album Official CD Release</a></p>\r\n<p><a href=\"../../press/HSR_Press_Release-City_of_Satellites-Machine_Is_My_Animal_Pre-Release.pdf\"><em>Machine Is My Animal</em> Album Digital Pre-Release</a></p>\r\n<p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-City_of_Satellites-Stranger_Than_Fiction_Single.pdf\">‘Stranger Than Fiction’ Single Release</a></p>\r\n<p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-City_Of_Satellites_EP.pdf\"><em>The Spook</em> EP Release</a></p>\r\n<p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-City_Of_Satellites_Single.pdf\">‘Moon In The Sea’ single Release</a></p>\r\n<p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-City_Of_Satellites_Signing.pdf\">City Of Satellites Sign to Hidden Shoal Recordings</a></p>\r\n<p> [/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<br />\r\n<h3>Artist Photos</h3>\r\n<p> </p>\r\n[gallery ids=\"8912,8913,8914,8915,8916,8917,8918\"]\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<br />\r\n<h3>Music Videos</h3>\r\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/Vb-VlJHt4M0?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>\r\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/3W7HULu_CCc?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen></iframe></p>\r\n<p><iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/z_oe4p73fAA?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen></iframe>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]<br />\r\n<h3>Licensing</h3>\r\n<p>City of Satellite\'s music is  available for licensing (master & sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

We chose San Francisco because we loved two bands from that city: Swell and American Music Club. We also figured the winters would be kinder than New York.</p><p>“Neither of us had been in a band before, or played live, so we were pretty clueless, and in hindsight it was all quite na ve: to just up sticks and head to California with our guitars. We tried out a few drummers but they were all too rock for what we were doing – we were looking for a quiet drummer who could play slow. We got introduced to Jason Lakis at a barbeque; he d been around the SF music scene for a couple of years, and was also a veteran of the east coast thrash metal scene. He was an extremely accomplished musician, but he d no idea how to play drums, so it suited us perfectly when he asked to join our band as the drummer. So that was all three of us kind of learning our instruments together, and the sound and the songs developed from that inexperience. I think we felt our way towards a sound. And I think we somehow wrote memorable songs too. Things after that seemed to happen for us pretty easily: we ran off a demo in the fall of 97 and and sent it out to various labels. Buzz Records in Chicago, who had Idaho on their roster, liked it enough to offer a deal. We recorded the first lp (East of Monument) in San Francisco over a weekend. We seemed to play shows constantly my old diary shows two rehearsals a week and a show every weekend, and often midweek too. We played anywhere and everywhere, up and down the west coast ..we even had our own van ..so we were a busy act…..</p><p>“1998 saw the release of the first lp in the spring, the second album taped with Jim Putnam (of the Radar Bros) in LA over the summer, and a 6 week European tour with our idols Swell in the winter. We were happy to work hard, and we all had that specific energy and drive that bands in their 20s have. 1999 was less busy, but the shows kept coming, and the second lp (The Road to the Crater) came out in the summer. We taped a 7inch (The Only Direction is South) for AIP records in late 99 with Monte Vallier (of Swell) and handed that in before Christmas. Then me and Eimer took off for a long 3 month break in Spain in February 2000.</p><p>“When we came back, we all kinda threw in the towel. And that was that.</p><p>“We did way more than I thought we ever would, and we re all proud of the records. Hey maybe we ll make another one at some point. The important thing to remember is that none of us could play at the start, but we still managed to make records, tour, make a real go of it: the whole thing. Because we wanted to do it. And so we did it.” – Conor Devlin</p><p> </p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<h3>News</h3>[catlist name=half-film-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=half-film-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<h3>Press Releases</h3><p> <br /> <a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Half_Film_Album_Reissues.pdf\"><em>East of Monument</em> and <em>Road To The Crater</em> Reissues</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Half_Film_Single.pdf\">‘Machines, Hawks And The Perfect Equation’ Single Release</a><br />  </p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p>[gallery ids=\"8901,8902,8903\"][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3><p>No videos yet, sorry!</p><p> </p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]<h3>Licensing</h3><p>Half Film\'s music is  available for licensing (master & sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

This is pop music to float inside.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<strong>The Boys</strong>\r\nGlassacre are Chris Mason and Cam Merton. Chris and Cam have been writing and making music for the last 10 years, both individually, in other bands, and together.\r\n\r\nCam has played and recorded in several Australian outfits over the last 15 years, including CSR (a 15-year-old, still-current recording project with Perth musician Rick Mason), Lake Disappointment and Silo. He’s an established and practicing artist with over 10 years of national and international exhibition and performance behind him, and he also manages the Australian digital music label Hidden Shoal Recordings.\r\n\r\nBesides playing and recording with the Chris Mason Implosion (their album <em>Up Down Up</em> is a pop gem), Chris also heads up the studio-based project My Majestic Star, whose wonderful cinematic post-rock yearnings have already gained international attention and sparkling reviews.\r\n\r\n<strong>Releases</strong>\r\nThe band’s first EP, <em>Slow Attack</em>, has received glowing reviews and regular airplay on Australian radio, as well as featuring on a number of international radio and Internet radio stations. Glassacre’s music plays at the edges of electronica and pop while never really committing to either.\r\n\r\nPerhaps the best introduction to the band comes in the form of their first single, ‘Swimming In Greece’. The song acts not as a benchmark of the Glassacre sound, but more as an indicator of their approach and mashing of sensibilities. Night-time beats roll around layers of turning guitars; warm and warning electronic tones call from behind; an almost spoken sing-song vocal intones gently but insistently. Two songs later and you’re lifted away by the gorgeous and breezy astral pop of ‘Tension Agreement’. The upcoming Glassacre album will bear even greater evidence to these wonderful musical schisms.\r\n\r\nGlassacre are currently putting the finishing touches to their eagerly anticipated debut album, due out in the second half of 2007 through Hidden Shoal Recordings. Glassacre are also currently working with Australian experimental film-maker Sam Landels on the video accompaniment to their first single from the new album, ‘September 16th’.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=glassacre content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]\r\n<h2>Reviews</h2>\r\n[catlist name=glassacre-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]\r\n<h3>Press Releases</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Glassacre_Single.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">September 16th Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release_8th_June.pdf\">Label sampler album release, Enargeia “UFO: Stryker Force” release and Glassacre “Slow Attack” Release</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=\"8887,8888,8889,8890,8886\"]\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&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]\r\n<h3>Licensing</h3>\r\nGlassacre\'s music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

The song slides over you like a friendly cloud as the 5/4 beat gently slips you out of kilter.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Slow Attack</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 400px; height: 307px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=124243276/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://glassacre.bandcamp.com/album/slow-attack\">Slow Attack by Glassacre</a></iframe><br />June 2006</p><div> </div><p>Glassacre\'s 2006 debut release featuring the single, \"Swimming in Greece\", Glassacre deliver an EP full of luscious, textural dream pop. This is pop music to float inside.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]<h3>Biography</h3><p> </p><p><strong>The Boys</strong><br /> Glassacre are Chris Mason and Cam Merton. Chris and Cam have been writing and making music for the last 10 years, both individually, in other bands, and together.</p><p>Cam has played and recorded in several Australian outfits over the last 15 years, including CSR (a 15-year-old, still-current recording project with Perth musician Rick Mason), Lake Disappointment and Silo. He’s an established and practicing artist with over 10 years of national and international exhibition and performance behind him, and he also manages the Australian digital music label Hidden Shoal Recordings.</p><p>Besides playing and recording with the Chris Mason Implosion (their album <em>Up Down Up</em> is a pop gem), Chris also heads up the studio-based project My Majestic Star, whose wonderful cinematic post-rock yearnings have already gained international attention and sparkling reviews.</p><p><strong>Releases</strong><br /> The band’s first EP, <em>Slow Attack</em>, has received glowing reviews and regular airplay on Australian radio, as well as featuring on a number of international radio and Internet radio stations. Glassacre’s music plays at the edges of electronica and pop while never really committing to either.</p><p>Perhaps the best introduction to the band comes in the form of their first single, ‘Swimming In Greece’. The song acts not as a benchmark of the Glassacre sound, but more as an indicator of their approach and mashing of sensibilities. Night-time beats roll around layers of turning guitars; warm and warning electronic tones call from behind; an almost spoken sing-song vocal intones gently but insistently. Two songs later and you’re lifted away by the gorgeous and breezy astral pop of ‘Tension Agreement’. The upcoming Glassacre album will bear even greater evidence to these wonderful musical schisms.</p><p>Glassacre are currently putting the finishing touches to their eagerly anticipated debut album, due out in the second half of 2007 through Hidden Shoal Recordings. Glassacre are also currently working with Australian experimental film-maker Sam Landels on the video accompaniment to their first single from the new album, ‘September 16th’.</p><p> </p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<p> </p><h3>News</h3>[catlist name=glassacre content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]<h2>Reviews</h2>[catlist name=glassacre-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> </p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Glassacre_Single.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">September 16th Single Release</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release_8th_June.pdf\">Label sampler album release, Enargeia “UFO: Stryker Force” release and Glassacre “Slow Attack” Release</a></p><p> [/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p>[gallery ids=\"8887,8888,8889,8890,8886\"][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3><p>No videos yet, sorry!</p><p> </p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]<h3>Licensing</h3><p>Glassacre\'s music is  available for licensing (master & sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

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.

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.

From these initial explorations, the luscious three-dimensional soundworld of Cheekbone began to take shape.

The band maintain their enigmatic intimacy and atmosphere, while suggesting haunting vistas just beyond the horizons of these succinct, sad songs. The lyrical themes explored on the album are a continuation of their previous preoccupations – reflection, rootlessness, memory – while also being coloured by Conor Devlin’s experience of recovering from a serious car accident in 2012. First single ‘Dependence Day’ marries [The] Caseworker’s trademark restraint with a strident, slowburning melodic sensibility, while the title track vividly surveys the morphine hallucinations Conor experienced while confined to a hospital bed in Switzerland. The album’s chiming guitars, gently bobbing rhythm section and warm yet dislocated vocals from both Conor and Eimer Devlin generate a sense of intimacy and fragility that is deeply affecting. What’s most apparent on these songs is of a band in absolute control of their craft, able to derive maximum emotional heft from minimal ingredients.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Letters From The Coast</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 600px; height: 540px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=1344164510/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://hiddenshoal.bandcamp.com/album/letters-from-the-coast\">Letters From The Coast by [The] Caseworker</a></iframe>\r\nSeptember 2011\r\n<div></div>\r\nOn their third album <em>Letters From The Coast</em>, garage-dreampop trio [The] Caseworker exude the feel of a shoegazing Velvet Underground reared by the Flying Nun label - the perfect balance of drone and chime.

Rave reviews prompted the band to try some live shows, with Will Waghorn joining on drums, and extra guitar provided by Monte Vallier (Swell, Jet Black Crayon).

A foray into more experimental territory, <em>Quarrels</em> features lusher, denser instrumentation, is rich in ideas yet toys with new levels of restraint. The band’s trademark harmonic guitar passages and syncopation sit beneath languid brass and woodwind, balanced by glitchy electronica, dramatic crescendos and opium-infused oriental explorations; slow, meandering waltzes give way to moments of ethereal lightness and beauty. This music transcends fads and trends to appeal to anyone drawn to beautiful, supple songcraft. The majority of <em>Quarrels</em> was recorded over a four-day period during January 2012 in an isolated farmhouse in Western Australia’s bleak Central Wheatbelt. Instruments were sprawled across a lounge room and picked up at will by the players and in turn by microphones placed in different corners of the room. Back in Perth the real work began, with Justin Manzano going through the recordings, making adjustments and adding the odd track to the collection. Towards the end of 2012, the album was mixed by indie producer extraordinaire Scott Solter and mastered by Simon Struthers (Umpire, Muzaizake).</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Surry Hills EP</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 274px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=40892357/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=0f91ff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://apricotrail.bandcamp.com/album/surry-hills-bonus-ep\">Surry Hills (Bonus EP) by Apricot Rail</a></iframe><br />July 2011</p><div> </div><p>Features exclusive bonus tracks previously only available on a limited run cd-r available at the \'Surry Hills\' launch show. ‘Surry Hills’ is a stunning new song from the much-beloved Apricot Rail that gradually blooms from a shimmering haze of harmonics and ride cymbal into a delicious interweave of resonant guitars and woodwind melodies. The song’s restraint becomes its strength as the hairs on the back of your neck slowly rise. Inhabiting a similar sonic space to Sweden’s marvellous trio Tape, ‘Surry Hills’ is destined to garner a fresh new raft of fans for Apricot Rail’s addictive brand of melodic instrumental pop. After the success of their debut album, ideas for new Apricot Rail songs, including ‘Surry Hills’, were formulated during the band’s extended break late in 2009, after which the songs were road-tested live. While ‘Surry Hills’ maintains a minimalist, restrained and rustic feel typical of Apricot Rail’s debut album, the track also represents a shift in instrumental duties for the band, with new member (number 6!) Justin Manzano (Tin Man) playing guitar, Matt Saville moving from drums to glockenspiel, Daniel Burt moving from bass to percussion, and Jack Quirk moving from guitar to keyboards/electronics, along with Ambrose Nock on guitar and Mayuka Juber on flute.</p><div> </div><div> </div><h4>Apricot Rail (Self Titled)</h4><div> </div><p><iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 472px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=110748402/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://apricotrail.bandcamp.com/album/apricot-rail\">Apricot Rail by Apricot Rail</a></iframe><br />July 2009</p><div> </div><p>Apricot Rail produce some of the most discretely charming, lush instrumental pop music you’re likely to hear all year. Delicate, bell-like arpeggiated guitars weave around snaking clarinet and flute, while the beautifully held back yet sanguine rhythm section drives the whole thing into a blurred, sun-soaked horizon. Their debut album features the wonderfully received single ‘Pouring Milk Out The Window’, an anthem without ever having to be anthemic, a melancholic reverie that never resorts to the emotional ease of sadness. ‘If You Can’t Join Them, Beat Them’, which featured on the 2009 Spunk Singles Club compilation album, is another chiming standout. And gorgeous closing track ‘Halfway House’ weaves in bubbling electronics as the band lead the listener through glowing landscapes and light-drenched vistas.</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]<h3>Biography</h3><p>One day, after his star sign promised a ‘dynamic’ afternoon, Ambrose Nock (guitar) decided it was the right time to form a band known as Apricot Rail. He was soon joined by Jack Quirk (guitar), Matthew Saville (drums) and Daniel Burt (bass). The premise of the band was simple: music based on unique guitar tunings, the use of natural harmonics, and very open ideas about other instruments, electronica and song structure. After a debut gig at the Hyde Park Hotel in March 2008 with four members and as many songs, the band soon added a fifth in Mayuka Juber (clarinet/flute), redefining the balance of guitars with the addition of beautiful woodwind melodies.</p><p>The band’s debut recording was a DIY affair, with members heading off to a rural property near Yorkrakine, 220km north-east of Perth in WA’s Central Wheatbelt. In the following months, the resulting demo got regular rotation on Perth’s RTRFM, and though unreleased, was rated by the station’s Homegrown presenter Chris Wheeldon as his second-favourite local outing of 2008. In the second half of the year, Apricot Rail chalked up some serious gig mileage, along the way supporting the likes of Holly Throsby, Charge Group and Adam Said Galore and finding refuge among Perth’s emerging post-rock/experimental scene.</p><p>In November 2008 the band headed into Kingdom studios under the guidance of Simon Struthers (Umpire, Adam Said Galore, Mukaizake) where the band recorded their soon to be released self-titled debut long player. Australian fans got a chance to taste some of the new album’s sublime wares when the Apricot Rail track ‘If You Can’t Join Them, Beat Them’ was released on the prestigious Spunk Singles Club compilation album along with the likes of Leader Cheetah, The Dead Sea and The Middle East. The band was also recently nominated for Favourite Newcomer in the 2009 Western Australian Music Industry Awards.</p><p>Apricot Rail are:<br /> Jack Quirk – Guitar, Glock, Trumpet, Electronica, Voice<br /> Daniel Burt – Bass guitar, Saxophone<br /> Matt Saville – Drum Kit/Percussion<br /> Mayuka Juber – Clarinet, Flute, Keyboard, Melodica, Voice<br /> Ambrose Nock – Guitar, Glock, Keyboard<br /> Justin Manzano – Guitar, Electronics</p><p> </p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<h3>News</h3>[catlist name=apricot-rail-news content=yes pagination=yes title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title] [/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]<h3>Reviews</h3>[catlist name=apricot-rail-reviews content=yes pagination=yes title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title] [/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<h3>Press Releases</h3><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Apricot_Rail-Dore_Strauch.pdf\">‘Dore Strauch’ Single + Video Release</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Apricot_Rail_Quarrels.pdf\"><em>Quarrels</em> Album Release</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Apricot_Rail-Surry_Hills_Single.pdf\">‘Surry Hills’ Single Release</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Apricot_Rail_Tin_Man_Remix.pdf\">Apricot Rail ‘Pouring Milk Out The Window (Tin Man Spilt Milk Remix)’ Single</a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Apricot_Rail_Album.pdf\">Apricot Rail Self-Titled Debut Album </a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Apricot_Rail_Signing.pdf\">Apricot Rail ‘Pouring Milk Out The Window’ Single </a></p><p><a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Apricot_Rail_Signing.pdf\">Apricot Rail Sign to Hidden Shoal Recordings</a><br /> [/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p>[gallery columns=\"4\" link=\"file\" ids=\"8576,8584,8585,8586,8587,8588,8589,8590,8591\"][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/hBYJ6sdcvLo?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p><p> </p><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/VeTN3QNo2Ck?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p><p> </p><p><iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/puWnzmHCPxA?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe></p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]<h3>Licensing</h3><p>Apricot Rail\'s music is  available for licensing (master & sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

As with so much of his music, Kramies delivers soundtracks to moments rather than mere songs.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>The Folklore Sessions</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 274px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2676132242/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-folklore-sessions\">The Folklore Sessions by Kramies</a></iframe>\r\nMay 2014\r\n<div></div>\r\n<em>The Folklore Sessions</em> is the free new EP by dream-pop singer-songwriter Kramies, featuring acoustic versions of songs from his two acclaimed Hidden Shoal EPs <em>The European</em> and <em>The Wooden Heart</em>, plus the beautiful piano talents of Grant Wilson (from Syfy\'s Ghost Hunters). While his previous EPs mined a wonderfully rich seam of atmospheric yet epic songcraft, <em>The Folklore Sessions</em> demonstrates that Kramies’ songwriting is just as stunning without the undeniable production talents of Jason Lytle (Grandaddy) and Todd Tobias (Guided By Voices, Robert Pollard, Circus Devils). With just his voice and acoustic guitar, plus languid piano backing by Grant Wilson (of Ghost Hunters TV show fame), these stripped-back versions of <em>The European</em>’s ‘Antiquarian Days’, <em>The Wooden Heart</em>’s title track and ‘Sea Otter Cottage’ are given vivid new life through Kramies’ genuinely affecting performances.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>The Wooden Heart</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 340px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2389044161/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-wooden-heart\">The Wooden Heart by Kramies</a></iframe>\r\nOctober 2013\r\n<div></div>\r\n<em>The Wooden Heart</em> is the luscious and expansive new EP from Colorado-based dream-pop artist Kramies. The EP features the production and instrumental talents of Jason Lytle of Grandaddy fame, along with the inimitable production and additional instrumentation of Robert Pollard co-conspirator Todd Tobias. <em>The Wooden Heart</em> mines a wonderfully rich seam of atmospheric yet epic songcraft that Kramies has made his own. From the throbbing ambient introduction of ‘The Beginning’ through to the delicate folk of ‘The Ending’, Kramies’ new EP covers vast emotional and musical terrain during its 23-minute run-time. The title track’s windswept grandeur is married to an emotional directness that demands your attention and doesn’t let go, ‘Sea Otter Cottage’ sways and swoons with an almost unbearable poignancy, and ‘Clocks Were All Broken’ both alludes to and embodies this music’s timeless appeal. In addition to Todd Tobias’s production (on ‘The Beginning’, ‘The Wooden Heart’, ‘Upon The Northern Isles’ and ‘The Ending’), <em>The Wooden Heart</em> EP also features the production and instrumental talents of Jason Lytle of Grandaddy fame (on ‘Sea Otter Cottage’ and ‘Clocks Were All Broken’). Rounded out by the beautiful artwork of French photographer Jérôme Sevrette, The Wooden Heart EP is a lovingly constructed work of art.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>The European</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 307px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2414891436/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://kramies.bandcamp.com/album/the-european\">The European by Kramies</a></iframe>\r\nNovember 2011\r\n<div></div>\r\nProduced by Todd Tobias (Guided By Voices, Robert Pollard, Circus Devils), <em>The European</em> sets Kramies’ gorgeous voice and acoustic guitar within a glowing tableau, epic in scope yet delicate in detail. The EP fades into view with ‘Intro’, a simple cyclical pattern of guitar, piano and vocals gradually subsumed by drones and distortion. This leads into the majestic, glacial sway of the title track, guaranteed to make the hairs on the back of your neck stand on end. Then, ‘Inventors’ is the album’s dark, shadowy heart, a ballad of subtle intensity. Single ‘Coal Miners Executive Club’ is an emotionally resonant vortex of swooning pop built around an absolutely heartbreaking chord progression on synthesizer, carried skyward as layers and layers of instruments build and build. And the closing ‘Antiquarian Days’ is a fitting fade towards a sepia horizon, burbling loops and chiming guitars accompanying Kramies’ gentle lament.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\nDutch-American singer-songwriter Kramies Windt began writing songs at the age of 14 after buying his first synth, acoustic guitar and four-track cassette recorder at an estate sale in his home town of Cleveland, Ohio. Even though he was never really exposed to any music other than old Dutch Christmas records his family had lying around when he was a kid, their haunting sound would shape the direction of his future songwriting.\r\n\r\nKramies started forming and playing in bands around the age of 16, and by the age of 19, the bands he formed became based around the songs he was writing. The bands took on many forms, playing the underground music scene from Ohio to Chicago. Come the late ’90s, Kramies developed his own sound, based around old-world imagery of cobblestone streets, old trains and castles, and romantic, poetic moments. Kramies and his band went on to open for Spiritualized, Grandaddy, Yo La Tengo, Calexico, Stereolab, Dirty Three and Red House Painters.\r\n\r\nCome 2004, Kramies decided to focus on writing and recording in the studio, and began working with producer and engineer Todd Tobias (Guided By Voices, Robert Pollard) and guitarist David Paolucci. Working with Todd and David, Kramies released two albums to critical acclaim: Golden Like A New Thing (ACM, 2008) and Castle of Ghosts (ACM, 2010).\r\n\r\nIn 2010 Kramies began writing the songs for his first Hidden Shoal release, The European EP, in his coat closet in Colorado. The songs were demoed on four-track, painting a vivid sonic picture of the direction the release would take, drawing on the haunting old-world imagery he loved so much as a kid. The demos were sent to David Paolucci to start working on guitar parts in Ohio. Kramies then toured Ireland, playing really old pubs and small concert halls, which brought new ideas and layers to the songs. The European EP was recorded in June and July 2011 with Todd Tobias, with prominent, swirling guitar work from Dave Paolucci.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=kramies-news content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]\r\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong><a title=\"More Kramies News\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/category/news/kramies-news/\">More News</a></strong></p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]\r\n<h2>Reviews</h2>\r\n[catlist name=kramies-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]\r\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a title=\"Kramies Reviews\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/category/reviews/kramies-reviews/\"><strong>More Reviews</strong></a></p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]\r\n<h3>Press Releases</h3>\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/Press_Release-Kramies-The_Folklore_Sessions_EP.pdf\">Kramies <em>The Folklore Sessions</em> EP Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Kramies-The_Wooden_Heart_EP.pdf\">Kramies <em>The Wooden Heart</em> Album Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Kramies-The_Wooden_Heart%28Single%29.pdf\">Kramies ‘The Wooden Heart’ Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Kramies-The_European.pdf\">Kramies – <em>The European</em> EP Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Kramies-Coal_Miners_Executive_Club.pdf\">Kramies – ‘Coal Miners Executive Club’ Single Release</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=\"9000,8999,9001\"]\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]\r\n<h3>Music Videos</h3>\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/uM1_Ov-ont0?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/-l4F8vCH8MM?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/vOHV7ZWshkM?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/TdmV4aOSmxE?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/C5865MiACPA?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/KxAnc3dj3b0?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]\r\n<h3>Licensing</h3>\r\nKramies\' music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

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\"]<h3>Biography</h3><p>Dutch-American singer-songwriter Kramies Windt began writing songs at the age of 14 after buying his first synth, acoustic guitar and four-track cassette recorder at an estate sale in his home town of Cleveland, Ohio.

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\"]<h3>Biography</h3><p>Dutch-American singer-songwriter Kramies Windt began writing songs at the age of 14 after buying his first synth, acoustic guitar and four-track cassette recorder at an estate sale in his home town of Cleveland, Ohio. Even though he was never really exposed to any music other than old Dutch Christmas records his family had lying around when he was a kid, their haunting sound would shape the direction of his future songwriting.</p><p>Kramies started forming and playing in bands around the age of 16, and by the age of 19, the bands he formed became based around the songs he was writing. The bands took on many forms, playing the underground music scene from Ohio to Chicago. Come the late ’90s, Kramies developed his own sound, based around old-world imagery of cobblestone streets, old trains and castles, and romantic, poetic moments. Kramies and his band went on to open for Spiritualized, Grandaddy, Yo La Tengo, Calexico, Stereolab, Dirty Three and Red House Painters.</p><p>Come 2004, Kramies decided to focus on writing and recording in the studio, and began working with producer and engineer Todd Tobias (Guided By Voices, Robert Pollard) and guitarist David Paolucci. Working with Todd and David, Kramies released two albums to critical acclaim: Golden Like A New Thing (ACM, 2008) and Castle of Ghosts (ACM, 2010).</p><p>In 2010 Kramies began writing the songs for his first Hidden Shoal release, The European EP, in his coat closet in Colorado. The songs were demoed on four-track, painting a vivid sonic picture of the direction the release would take, drawing on the haunting old-world imagery he loved so much as a kid. The demos were sent to David Paolucci to start working on guitar parts in Ohio. Kramies then toured Ireland, playing really old pubs and small concert halls, which brought new ideas and layers to the songs. The European EP was recorded in June and July 2011 with Todd Tobias, with prominent, swirling guitar work from Dave Paolucci.</p><p> </p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]<h3>News</h3>[catlist name=kramies-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=kramies-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]<h3>Press Releases</h3>\r\n \r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/Press_Release-Kramies-The_Folklore_Sessions_EP.pdf\">Kramies <em>The Folklore Sessions</em> EP Release.</a>\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Kramies-The_Wooden_Heart_EP.pdf\">Kramies <em>The Wooden Heart</em> Album Release</a>\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Kramies-The_Wooden_Heart%28Single%29.pdf\">Kramies ‘The Wooden Heart’ Single Release</a>\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Kramies-The_European.pdf\">Kramies – <em>The European</em> EP Release</a>\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Kramies-Coal_Miners_Executive_Club.pdf\">Kramies – ‘Coal Miners Executive Club’ Single Release</a>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]<h3>Artist Photos</h3><p> </p><p>[gallery ids=\"9000,8999,9001\"]</p>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]<h3>Music Videos</h3>\r\n\r\n<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/uM1_Ov-ont0?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/-l4F8vCH8MM?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/vOHV7ZWshkM?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/TdmV4aOSmxE?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/C5865MiACPA?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/KxAnc3dj3b0?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen></iframe>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]\r\n<h3>Licensing</h3>\r\n<p>Antonymes music is  available for licensing (master & sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.
