As with Brian Eno’s finest moments and David Sylvian’s ambient explorations, Slow Dancing Society’s music manages to dissolve its temporal markers and speak about moments removed from time.

Cavernous drums, minimal guitar licks a la Roxy Music, and smooth saxophone lines feature prominently across these six tracks, all enveloped in the unmistakable Slow Dancing Society sound and feel. This is Drew Sullivan at his most playful, offering us a glimpse into some of the guilty pleasures he acknowledges as influences, while also delivering a deliciously smooth and immersive listening experience.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>The Cogent Sea</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 540px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=932115624/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://slowdancingsociety.bandcamp.com/album/the-cogent-sea\">The Cogent Sea by Slow Dancing Society</a></iframe>\r\n<div></div>\r\nSlow Dancing Society’s sixth album <em>The Cogent Sea</em> is another absorbing progression in Drew Sullivan’s mesmerising discography. The album continues the submersed exploration of Sullivan’s ’80s influences while also drawing upon an incredibly focused and cinematic ambient minimalism. There are trademark elements from across Slow Dancing Society’s stunning, critically acclaimed back catalogue, but rather than being throwbacks they present a continuity of narrative that is rarely found over such a large body of work. On single ‘A Clearing’, gently overlapping waves of synthesizer are suspended amid sustained tones, holding the listener transfixed before Sullivan’s trademark guitar sound gently brings the listener back down to earth, transformed. Second single ‘Pull’ is aptly titled, its droning radiance, warm piano chords and magnetic guitar figures pulling the listener irresistibly into its enveloping glow. This is Slow Dancing Society at his masterful, immersive best.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Laterna Magica</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 472px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3307423845/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://slowdancingsociety.bandcamp.com/album/laterna-magica\">Laterna Magica by Slow Dancing Society</a></iframe>\r\n<div></div>\r\nSlow Dancing Society’s fifth album <em>Laterna Magica</em> demonstrates another key progression in the Slow Dancing Society discography, which is becoming one of the essential bodies of work in contemporary ambient music. The tracks are underpinned by gorgeous guitar drift and warm synth wash, sparingly propelled by throbbing electronic undercurrents. From the soft-focus exhalation of ‘A Few Moments’, via the gleaming musical universe of recently released single ‘I’ll Leave A Light On’, through to the hypnotic pulse and drifting melancholic piano of finale ‘Tomorrow’s Another Day’, <em>Laterna Magica</em> is a definitive Slow Dancing Society release.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Under The Sodium Lights</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 373px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=1884357437/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://slowdancingsociety.bandcamp.com/album/under-the-sodium-lights\">Under The Sodium Lights by Slow Dancing Society</a></iframe>\r\n<div></div>\r\nFollowing on from the ebullient warmth of the critically acclaimed <em>Priest Lake Circa ’88</em>, <em>Under The Sodium Lights</em> is Drew Sullivan’s latest ambient epic. The album feels like a distillation of the three stunning releases that preceded it – and as such is Sullivan’s finest work to date. The delicate interplay between focused melodic details and blurred washes of sound draws the listener into a hypnotised state, where the waking world and the world of sleep cascade in and out of balance. First single ‘…and to the dust we shall return’ sees the gradual accretion of reverberant guitar tones, emerging from the silence as sparse reflections across the stereo field. Slow searching melodies overlap and accumulate before a descending bass figure carries the song home to its elegiac conclusion. From the luscious, tactile dream of ‘The Songs In Your Eyes’ to hopeful finale ‘Love Is On The Way’, <em>Under The Sodium Lights</em> resonates with a rich emotional core – and the choking realisation of our own transience. The album rewards immersive listening from start to finish, to really soak in its beauty.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Priest Lake Circa \'88</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 406px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=3949085097/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://slowdancingsociety.bandcamp.com/album/priest-lake-circa-88\">Priest Lake Circa \'88 by Slow Dancing Society</a></iframe>\r\n<div></div>\r\nFollowing on from the ice-sculpted cinematics of the critically praised <em>The Slow and Steady Winter</em>, <em>Priest Lake Circa ’88</em> is Drew Sullivan’s finest work to date. In essence, it is the second part of a double album that began with <em>The Slow and Steady Winter</em>, acting as a long-distance conclusion to the double album’s narrative arc. <em>Priest Lake Circa ’88</em> exudes restraint and repose, yet is so richly melodic and full. While the album draws its raw form from ambient music, post rock and even dream pop, it is masterfully crafted into something that could only ever find itself under the Slow Dancing Society moniker. The album speaks of both departure and eventual return, and perhaps in its broadest sense the notion of “home”. Above all, this is music to bathe in: warm, steamy and all-encompassing.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>The Slow and Steady Winter</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 406px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=1874510603/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://slowdancingsociety.bandcamp.com/album/the-slow-and-steady-winter\">The Slow and Steady Winter by Slow Dancing Society</a></iframe>\r\n<div></div>\r\nFrom the outset<em> The Slow and Steady Winter</em> sets itself up to be an epic. Clocking in at over an hour long and comprising of only eight tracks the album paints its majestic landscapes with both measure and purpose, unfolding a sound that moves from immersive ambient evocations to beatific bliss rock. <em>The Slow and Steady Winter</em> is not concerned with singularity but rather the totality of experience. The album is a gorgeously choreographed chronicle of a Spokane winter from the ice covered fields of ‘The Early Stages of Decline’ to the thawed warm edges of spring in ‘February Sun’. The album serves as a wonderful progression from Slow Dancing Society’s previous work both in sound and mood. In part it presents a much darker vision while still radiating an ineffable sense of humanity and heart.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>The Sound of Lights When Dim</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 406px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=29030174/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://slowdancingsociety.bandcamp.com/album/the-sound-of-lights-when-dim\">The Sound Of Lights When Dim by Slow Dancing Society</a></iframe>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<em>The Sound of Lights When Dim</em> is a sumptuous unfolding ride towards a fading horizon. As with Eno’s finest moments and Sylvian’s ambient explorations, this work manages to dissolve its temporal markers and speak about moments removed from time. It talks to the delicious flaws of memory and feeling whilst never sullying itself with literality or simple documentation.\r\n<div></div>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\nSlow Dancing Society is Washington based musician/producer and nostalgist extraordinaire, Drew Sullivan. If ever there was an artist who truly expressed themselves in a way that defies everything music and art expects, and at times demands, then Slow Dancing Society would be that artist. With influences ranging from classic artists such as Brian Eno, Def Leppard, Tears For Fears, The Cure, Eddie Money, Pink Floyd, Prince, Spandeau Ballet and U2 to contemporary artists like Manual, Charles Webster, Explosions In The Sky, Sigur Rós, Hammock, Red House Painters and My Morning Jacket, one might begin to understand what they are in for when they hear something coming from Slow Dancing Society.\r\n\r\nAt times there is a pure abandonment of structure, continuity, consistancy and most importantly, hipness. If one were to compare the music of Slow Dancing Society to anything, it would be our memories and our past. Which is probably why one will experience such a sense of nostalgia and an overall coloring of sentimental values when they listen to the music. One cannot refute the notions that life is abstract, doesn’t always make sense, isn’t always beautiful (though at times the contrary) and never what it seems. So why then does the music have to be?\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=slow-dancing-society content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]\r\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a title=\"Slow Dancing Society News\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/category/news/slow-dancing-society/\"><strong>More News</strong></a></p>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]\r\n<h2>Reviews</h2>\r\n[catlist name=slow-dancing-society-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]\r\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><a title=\"Slow Dancing Society Reviews\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/category/reviews/slow-dancing-society-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 title=\"The Dusk Recital Press Release\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/publicity/slow-dancing-society/Slow_Dancing_Society-The_Dusk_Recital-Press_Release.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><em>The Dusk Recital</em></a> EP Release\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/Slow_Dancing_Society-The_Cogent_Sea-Press Release.pdf\"><em>The Cogent Sea</em> Album Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/Slow_Dancing_Society-Pull_Press_Release.pdf\">‘Pull’ Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Slow_Dancing_Society-A_Clearing.pdf\">‘A Clearing’ Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Slow_Dancing_Society-Laterna_Magica.pdf\"><em>Laterna Magica</em> Album Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Slow_Dancing_Society-Ill_Leave_a_Light_On.pdf\">‘I’ll Leave a Light On’ Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Slow_Dancing_Society-Under_The_Sodium_Lights.pdf\"> <em>Under The Sodium Lights</em> Album Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Slow_Dancing_Society-and_to_the_dust_we_shall_remain.pdf\">‘…and to the dust we shall return’ Single and Video Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Slow_Dancing_Society-Priest_Lake_Circa_88.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><em>Priest Lake Circa ’88</em> Album Release </a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Slow_Dancing_Society_Single.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">\'A Warm Glow\' Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-New_Slow_Dancing_Society_Album.pdf\"><em>The Slow and Steady Winter</em> Album Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Slow_Dancing_Society_Album.pdf\" target=\"_blank\"><em>The Sounds Of Lights When Dim</em> Album 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=\"9155,9156,9157,9158,9159,9160\"]\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\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/oRRxPZf5yO4?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/U7tLhh8a1lo?rel=0\" width=\"420\" 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\nSlow Dancing Society\'s music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

The album embraces elements of jazz, classical, folk and dream-pop, and features guest musicians on bass clarinet, soprano sax, French horn and guitar. <em>Nights Bright Days</em> features single ‘Winter Deep’, a shimmering waltz that opens the album with weightless grace.The Hidden Shoal re-release also includes the bonus digital EP <em>Under The Day</em> which features six previously un-released tracks.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Under The Day</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 340px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=1852980130/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://chloemarch.bandcamp.com/album/under-the-day\">Under The Day by Chloë March</a></iframe>\r\nNovember 2014\r\n<div></div>\r\nA set of daydreams that form a miniature B-side to the album <em>Nights Bright Days</em>, this is a collection of six songs including the piano ballad ‘May’ and the dream-folk synth/harp reverie for the oldest tree in Kew Gardens ‘Old Tree, Mon Coeur’ that garnered Chloë Soundclouder of the Day earlier in 2014 - ‘Dreamy voice… A magical atmospheric song’.\r\n\r\nThe new songs on this EP include ‘Ballooniad’ inspired by tales of the early Balloonists lifting off from coastal cliffs, a dreamily buoyant track tethered to a circling bass and ‘Big Tree Engine’ a minimalist reflection centred around deep jazz-inflected piano chords inspired by an ancient tree in central London.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Politik</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 307px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=1181470453/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://chloemarch.bandcamp.com/album/politik\">Politik by Chloë March</a></iframe>\r\nJuly 2012\r\n<div></div>\r\nChloë was commissioned to compose a score for the dance-theatre piece <em>realPolitik</em>, choreographed by Julie Hope and performed at the Michaelis Theatre, London in 2008.   <em>realPolitik</em> was a re-working of <em>The Green Table</em>, a tanztheater piece created by German choreographer Kurt Jooss in 1932. <em>The Green Table</em> explored political corruption and the futility and horror of war. This modern version also concentrated on those issues, focusing on modern warfare and personal power-plays between characters.   Inspired by composers such as Walton, Weil and Stravinsky, <em>Politik</em> mixes orchestral drama with intricate and atmospheric electronica and weaves texts from A. E. Housman and Jonathan Swift into the score as spoken word elements.

Snowdrop is a thing of beauty.\"</em> - <strong>Collected Sounds</strong>\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\nChloë March has always lived a life with music at its heart. She grew up as part of a musical family, with both her parents musicians at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre. Her mother’s daily practice of playing Chopin, Beethoven, Debussy and Schumann pieces on the piano was the soundtrack to her young life, and March began piano lessons aged four. Later, after her parents divorced, songwriting and improvising on the piano became vital to her. Her early life was steeped in classical and jazz, with raids on her siblings’ record collections revealing wondrous new worlds created by Kate Bush, Pink Floyd and Joni Mitchell, which led to the discovery of David Sylvian, the Cocteau Twins and Steve Reich, all of which influenced her own music. Playing in bands with her brother and spending time in his 8-track home studio sparked a passion for recording, particularly for building up soundscapes with the texture and depth of multi-tracking. This early experimentation forged a determination to be in control of her own recording at home, with her current digital set-up only occasionally disrupted by her cat, musicologist partner, and various guest musicians. March’s long, slow discovery of her singing voice has been an odyssey of sorts, gradually finding the confidence and freedom to reveal a jazz-inflected alto that has been variously described as “absolutely charismatic”, “mesmerising” and “luminous”.\r\n\r\nInspired by myth, history, fairytales, books, film and the sensuality of the natural world, with an obsessive attention to detail and a desire to create intensely atmospheric and emotionally truthful music, March has been recording and producing her own music since she released her second album <i>Divining</i> in 2008. Prior to <i>Divining</i>, she toured the UK and Italy as keyboard player with the band Cousteau, released her first album <i>Snowdrop</i> in 2004, and composed for theatre and dance, including the 40-minute electro-orchestral soundtrack <i>Politik</i>. March has also worked with German ambient producer Jumpel, singing on his 2010 single ‘Edinburgh’ and four songs on his 2013 album <i>Bloc4</i>. Her latest album, and her first for Hidden Shoal, <i>Nights Bright Days</i>, has been four years in the making. It was initially inspired by the night and metamorphosis, and became a cycle of songs as dreams, imbued with images of darkness and light. The album embraces jazz, classical, folk and dream-pop influences, and features guest musicians on bass clarinet, soprano sax and guitar.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=chloe-march-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=chloe-march-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]\r\n<h3>Press Releases</h3>\r\n<a title=\"Nights Bright Days Press Release\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/publicity/chloe-march/Chloe_March-Nights_Bright_Days-Press_Release.pdf\">Nights Bright Days Re-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 columns=\"2\" ids=\"10523,10524,10525,10526\"]\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/oM7W6d5frbY?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]\r\n<h3>Licensing</h3>\r\nChloë March\'s music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

Tighter structures and newly succinct arrangements form the fabric throughout which the City of Satellites weave their signature glacial atmospherics, shimmery guitars, celestial vocals and potent rhythms.\r\n\r\nWith a sound and presence that has been described as ethereal and haunting, City of Satellites has embarked on a wide-eyed cosmic ride with <em>The Momentary Mask</em>.

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.

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.

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. 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.\r\n\r\nCity 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.

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.\r\n\r\n<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.\r\n\r\nIn 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.\r\n\r\nSingle ‘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.

The band released their first self-titled EP in 2009, which featured the standout track ‘Streamers’. ‘Streamers’ received rave reviews and achieved widespread high rotation airplay on both Triple J and community radio, as well as taking out the grand prize in the WAM Song of the Year in 2009.\r\n\r\nThe founding members of Umpire (Geoff Symons, Simon Struthers and Michael Lake) have a long history in the Perth music scene, playing in many seminal progressive indie-rock bands, including Adam Said Galore, O and Hidden Shoal’s very own Mukaizake, so it was a natural progression for the band to develop their live show by adding drummer, Josh Watkins. Performing the songs live has allowed the band to tour Australia and play with many of their musical heroes, including Stephen Malkmus, Built to Spill, Paul Dempsey, The Jezebels, Sugar Army, Jebediah, Love Of Diagrams, Dan Kelly, Bob Log III and Tame Impala.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=umpire-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=umpire-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]\r\n<h3>Press Releases</h3>\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Umpire-Supply_Chins_Single.pdf\">‘Supply Chins’ Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Umpire-Now_Were_Active.pdf\"><em>Now We’re Active</em> Australian Album Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Umpire-Green_Light_District.pdf\">‘Green Light District’ 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=\"9295,9296,9297\"]\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/w8Ii0yu1UjU?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/APlcOr6r8qE?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\nUmpire\'s music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

The title of Gilded’s debut album Terrane comes from a geological formation that has become dislocated from its original position and sutured onto a new landscape. It retains its own distinctive form and contrasts against those around it, whilst also finding a new place, a new home. The compositions that make up this record strike at the heart of how it feels to be in a period of transition, of watching a subtle change, a shift in texture. There are moments of quietude and reflection – held together by the austere and alternately punctuated by shifts toward the uplifting and revelatory. Terrane deftly operates around the intersections of melody and texture, movement and pause.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\nGilded is a new musical project featuring West Australian experimental musicians Matt Rösner and Adam Trainer. Matt Rösner is arguably one of Western Australia’s most renowned experimental musicians. Based in Myalup in the South West, Matt has released music on labels as diverse as Room40, 12K, Apestaartje, Meupe and Miatera, with a musical focus on guitar and field recordings. Adam Trainer was a founding member of Perth post-rock outfit Radarmaker, and has also played in experimental projects such as Polaroid Ghost and the Ghost of 29 Megacycles. In solo guise he has released music on labels such as hellosQuare, New Weird Australia, Phantom Channel and Feral Media. Adam’s solo work has sought to locate textural nuance alongside dislocated melody.\r\n\r\nThe title of Gilded’s debut album <em>Terrane</em> comes from a geological formation that has become dislocated from its original position and sutured onto a new landscape. It retains its own distinctive form and contrasts against those around it, whilst also finding a new place, a new home. The album was conceived during two consecutive autumns in Western Australia. The compositions that make up this record strike at the heart of how it feels to be in a period of transition, of watching a subtle change, a shift in texture. There are moments of quietude and reflection held together by the austere and alternately punctuated by shifts toward the uplifting and revelatory. One thing is certain: change is inevitable. We leave traces and will not return.\r\n\r\nThe inception of the record occurred in March 2010, with the recording of a 50-minute piano improvisation in a room overlooking Perth’s skyline. The piano recording sat on the shelf for 12 months: a period of contemplation. It would later become the backbone of five of the nine tracks on the record. Convening in autumn 2011 in Matt’s home studio at Myalup Beach, layers of instrumental melodies, percussion, vocals and field recordings were set against the original piano sketches, turning what was once improvised into a structured cinematic whole. The sessions in Myalup also gave rise to four new works inspired by the surroundings, and complementing the record’s textural theme. These new pieces often contrasted the unbound structure of the original compositions with rhythm and repetition. They brought a sense of focus and precision to the record’s preoccupation with texture, and directed its melodic tendencies towards more structured and restrained forms.

The collective will grow and shrink and the music will morph and paint with other colours.

The track is a tightly woven, intimately crafted piece of textured pop. Guitars coated in dark honey play against rolling drums as Chris Masons haunting vocals ring out across an altered twilight.As the song rallies to a kind of defeated triumph with the repeated vocal line “This is your stop”, everything shifts and the track takes a sharp 90 degree turn into a dark corridor. In true Glassacre style, ‘September 16th’ manages to discretely bridge together two disparate emotional landscapes leaving the listener without view of their origin. The single release features the bonus track ‘Sanctuary’ which finds Glassacre in drug dub dream pop mode. The song slides over you like a friendly cloud as the 5/4 beat gently slips you out of kilter.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Slow Attack</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<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>\r\nJune 2006\r\n<div></div>\r\nGlassacre\'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.\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.

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 track is a tightly woven, intimately crafted piece of textured pop.

In true Glassacre style, ‘September 16th’ manages to discretely bridge together two disparate emotional landscapes leaving the listener without view of their origin.

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.

This exquisitely subtle and detailed five-track EP resonates with chilly grandeur and heartening warmth. Across spacious vistas reminiscent of the collaborative work of Brian Eno and Harold Budd, delicate yet assured melodies unfurl before being subjected to delicate manipulation. This is enveloping, minimal music with a fragility that belies its emotional potency. Opening with the shimmering piano melodies and tape-chewed ambience of the majestic title track, with detours via the angelic music-box miniature ‘Iceland’ and the glitch-scarred sustain-scapes of ‘Africa’, and concluding with the achingly melancholic ‘Lullaby’, <em>In Between</em> is a perfectly formed release that announces an understated new ambient craftsman.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Growing</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 241px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=265281379/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://kryshe.bandcamp.com/album/growing\">Growing by Kryshe</a></iframe>\r\nJune 2013\r\n<div></div>\r\nThis 40 minute live improvisation in 3 sections was recorded in the Summer of 2013. As demonstrated on Kryshe\'s mini-album  \"In Between\", Grothe has a sublime understanding of space and tone. Growing is a delicate, hovering soundworld, pulsing with life yet never leaving a trace of its creator\'s presence.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Dreamland</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 208px;\" src=\"https://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=639533407/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://kryshe.bandcamp.com/album/dreamland\">Dreamland by Kryshe</a></iframe>\r\nNovember 2012\r\n<div></div>\r\nIn contrast to the free-flowing and layered compositions of <em>Growing</em> and <em>In Between</em>, this debut release from Kryshe presents a much more grounded and densely woven sonic tableau. This two-piece set showcases Grothe\'s ability to bring his delicate and affecting songcraft to new and varied musical environs.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\nKryshe is the live and studio-based ambient project of German musician Christian Grothe. Grothe’s musical explorations began by writing and recordings guitar-based songs at home, and over time his approach has become more experimental in nature. His current productions often evolve from live improvisation sessions, incorporating sound-manipulation software such as max/msp to develop a richly layered yet spacious sound. Grothe is also a member of the improvisational trio Unland, featuring ambient artist Jonas Meyer and clarinetist Shabnam Pavaresh.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=kryshe-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=kryshe-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]\r\n<h3>Press Releases</h3>\r\n<a title=\"Kryshe - \" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/publicity/kryshe/In_Between-Press_Release.pdf\">Kryshe <em>In Between</em> Album 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 link=\"file\" ids=\"10297,10301,10300\"]\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/DcbLFCvLlWY?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\nKryshe Liveset at Mimis Osnabrück.

Gianluca Napoli (guitar, bass, keyboards, theremin, vocals) and Salvatore Fichera (guitar, bass, clarinet, vocals) initially played together in noise band Scream Inside, and Riccardo Napoli (drums, xylophone), Federico Laudani (guitar, bass), and Giuseppe Musmeci (guitar, piano, keyboards) played in space-rock band Plan 9.\r\n\r\nThe band formed in 1999 and self-released two EPs, <em>My Green Apple</em> and <em>t0101222</em>, which firmly established their distinctive balance between composition and improvisation across a broad instrumental palette. This was soon followed by the release of their debut album Sliding On Barents Sea on Edwood Records in 2003, which received glowing reviews in Italian magazines (Blow Up, Rumore, Mucchio Selvaggio) and webzines (Freak Out, Music Heart, Rockit). Since 2003 the band have played around Italy, supporting the likes of Battles, dEUS and US Maple.\r\n\r\nTheir 2009 album on Hidden Shoal, <em>Soundcheck For A Missing Movie</em>, also includes the talents of Andrea Fiorito (violin, piano), Giovanni Fiderio (violin), Sergio Montemagno (trumpet) and Sabrina Sciacca (vocals). It was recorded and mixed by Sacha Tilotta and Alfredo Musumeci at Dream Factory in Catania, and mastered by Bob Weston (Shellac) in Chicago.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=hc-b 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=hc-b-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]\r\n<h3>Press Releases</h3>\r\n<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-HC-B_Official_CD_Release.pdf\">HC-B <em>Soundcheck for a Missing Movie</em> CD Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-HC-B_Album_Digital_Pre-Release.pdf\">HC-B <em>Soundcheck for a Missing Movie</em> Digital Pre-Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release_HC-B_Single.pdf\">HC-B Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-HC-B_Signing.pdf\">HC-B Sign to Hidden Shoal</a>\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]\r\n<h3>Artist Photos</h3>\r\n \r\n\r\n[gallery ids=\"11832,11830,11826,11827,11828,11831,11829\"]\r\n\r\n \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/SAvMQxuTFDM?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Licensing\"]\r\n<h3>Licensing</h3>\r\nHC-B\'s music is  available for licensing (master & sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

Akin to Ennio Morricone at his most dark and doleful, and Portishead’s majestic self-titled second record, this music’s atmosphere of urban oppression is leavened with passages of sublime, redemptive beauty. Battlestations interweave the subtle with the dramatic, the intimate with the cinematic, the introverted with the bombastic. Across their eclectic and atmospheric instrumental rock, industrial ambience is counterbalanced by beautiful piano melodies, eerie samples and lyrical guitar lines. The result is incredibly evocative music, complex in both its narratives and textural composition.\r\n\r\n<em>“one of those bands that is doing amazing things despite the fact that no one seems to have heard of them… drop whatever it is you are doing and go listen”</em> – <strong>Scene Point Blank</strong>\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/LV1WIKvccJo?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>','Battlestations \"The Extent of Damage\" Out Now!','','inherit','closed','closed','','13014-revision-v1','','','2015-10-08 09:13:33','2015-10-08 01:13:33','',13014,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/13014-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(13022,1,'2015-10-14 09:52:31','2015-10-14 01:52:31','<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Dr-Liminal-2.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft  wp-image-12293\" src=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Dr-Liminal-2-297x300.jpg\" alt=\"Liminal Drifter\" width=\"150\" height=\"152\" /></a>We have the wonderful interview with <a title=\"Liminal Drifter\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/liminal-drifter/\">Liminal Drifter</a> (aka Dr Simon Order) by Fred Sims (<a title=\"Artificial Intelligence\" href=\"http://rtrfm.com.au/shows/artificialintelligence/\" target=\"_blank\">Artificial Intelligence</a> on <a title=\"RTRFM\" href=\"http://rtrfm.com.au/\" target=\"_blank\">RTRFM</a>) to share with you.

Comprising three tracks, two of which are over 18 minutes long, <i>Battlestations</i> presents a shifting instrumental narrative that effortlessly moves between dystopia and hope.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\nLittle is known about Battlestations other than the basic facts: formed in Brussels, Belgium in 2009; released two albums (<em>Battlestations</em> and <em>In A Cold Embrace</em>) and two EPs (<em>Return/Mr. Abject</em> and <em>The Death Of The Day</em>); collaboration with Joe Dorsey on the Involved project. However, this shroud of anonymity feels fitting when listening to their enigmatic music. It often feels too big to attach to singular identities, and the atmosphere and mystique surrounding the songs suspends them, weightless, into a listening space unmoored from conventional reference points.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=battlestations-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=battlestations-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\nNo press releases yet, sorry!\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=\"11765\"]\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/OKSue6CIp1A?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe> <iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/HwFVigOuV3w?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe> <iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/w6IyEce5NqE?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\nBattlestations music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

However, this shroud of anonymity feels fitting when listening to their enigmatic music. It often feels too big to attach to singular identities, and the atmosphere and mystique surrounding the songs suspends them, weightless, into a listening space unmoored from conventional reference points.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=battlestations-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=battlestations-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\nNo press releases yet, sorry!\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=\"11765\"]\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/OKSue6CIp1A?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe> <iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/HwFVigOuV3w?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe> <iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/w6IyEce5NqE?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\nBattlestations music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

The project is presented by The Blue Room Theatre Summer Nights as a part of Fringe World 2015.\r\n\r\nCreated by Sarah Nelson, the project was conceived in 2011 for an artist residency with DADAA Inc. and was developed over a month working with youth from the Derby and Mowunjum communities in the Kimberely, Western Australia. In 2012 the project was presented as a part of the inaugural Proximity Festival, which offered not only a starkly contrasting environment as a backdrop for the films, but also a paying adult audience to the experience.

I don’t share a lot of videos unless it’s the only way to share a song, but sometimes the artistic element of a video plus the mood of the song comes together and creates something really cool. The new video for Involved’s “Radiation Leak” is just that so I’m writing a little about it and sharing.\r\n\r\nThe video for “Radiation Leak” was created by Hidden Shoal’s Cam Merton and is a brooding sci-fi noir set piece featuring ghostly silhouettes wandering through a smoke-filled city of glittering skyscrapers and glassy plazas. What at first seems graceful, peaceful and organised, soon appears menacing, like watching a sleepwalking populace trapped within a futuristic cage.\r\n\r\nInvolved is an international collaboration of Joe Dorsey (Until Sunrise, Ocean Architecture) and Reivilo Enoignor (Battlestations). They collaborated entirely over the internet and produced their album Revolving Maze in 2013 but was just recently released on Hidden Shoal last fall.\r\n\r\nRevolving Maze is a great collection of darker electronic driven tracks that are also soothing in a weird way.

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.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Europa</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<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>\r\nNovember 2010\r\n<div></div>\r\nInspired 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.\r\n\r\nLike 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.\r\n\r\n\'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.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Deuxième Bureau</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<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>\r\nFebruary 2009\r\n<div></div>\r\n<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.

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.\r\n\r\nJo 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.\r\n\r\nDespite his obvious mastery of the dizzying possibilities afforded by technology, Jumpel crafts music of intense intimacy and humanity.

As drummers were rarer than guitarists, and because he was a shy team player rather than a guitar hero, Cavalli most often hit the skins when jamming with friends. It wasn’t long before Cavalli figured that the best way to mesh his love of stringed things with drums and other instruments was to try his hand at production. Thus began a rather long and protracted musical journey littered with four tracks, samplers, sequencers and reel-to-reel tape, culminating in the purchase of a computer and some dodgy sequencing software. Even though he was immersed in a sea of ’90s atmospheric drum ’n’ bass at the time, he slowly but surely began to navigate back to his roots in guitar-based music, started playing bass, and even plucked up the courage to sing now and again.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThen disaster struck: hard drive failure and no back-up. With all but a few of his scratched demo CDs lost, he began to rebuild his compositions. This was timely, as Hidden Shoal’s Cam Merton showed interested in doing something more, following on from Cavalli’s remix of [The] Caseworker’s ‘Hold On To The Road’. Makee then re-acquainted himself with an old mate called Hooch and got to work finishing his debut self-titled EP.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"News\"]\r\n<h3>News</h3>\r\n[catlist name=makee-news content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]\r\n<h3>Reviews</h3>\r\n[catlist name=makee-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<a title=\"Makee EP Press Release\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/publicity/makee/Makee-EP-Press-Release.pdf\"><em>Makee</em> EP Press 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 columns=\"2\" ids=\"11020,11021,11022,11024\"]\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/WucocllpuO0?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\nMakee\'s music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

From the widescreen cosmic vistas of <em>Lava</em> to some of the more intimate moments of his 42-minute single-track opus <em>Off</em>, Mehr has now come to examine the most challenging space yet – that of our everyday lives and the spatial narratives that surround us. Mehr’s music has always possessed a keen sense of and negotiation with scale, and on <em>Binary Rooms</em> he challenges notions of personal space, juxtaposing the human against the industrial, the gentle and intimate against the jolting and harsh. Mehr acts as a fragment hunter, meshing machine-like tones with the discarded elements of humanity; narrative with anti-narrative. On <em>Binary Rooms</em> he manages to create a spatial remix – a striking re-design of aural reality filled with a living, digital biology.\r\n\r\nExperimental filmmaker and Markus Mehr collaborator <a href=\"https://vimeo.com/sixtsense/videos\">Stefanie Sixt</a> has created a stunning new video work for the track \'Gymnasium/Swarms\' which can be viewed in full at <a href=\"https://vimeo.com/105644655\" rel=\"lightbox-video-0\">Vimeo.</a>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Off</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 170px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=398032740/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/off\">Off by Markus Mehr</a></iframe>\r\nJanuary 2013\r\n<div></div>\r\n<em>Off</em>  by German experimental ambient artist Markus Mehr, is the third and final part of a trilogy that includes the critically acclaimed releases <em>In</em> and <em>On</em>.\r\n\r\n<em>Off</em>  is not only the culmination of Markus Mehr’s trilogy, but it may also be the culmination of his career’s work thus far. The single-track album begins in silence, as a thrumming loop gradually emerges. From there, a beautiful piano refrain is introduced, noise ebbs and flows, threatening to engulf the piece, while field recordings and swooningly transportive synth patterns drift into focus. During its 42-minute runtime, the piece immerses the listener in a dizzyingly beautiful soundworld that’s ever-shifting. Certain passages allude to other sequences and samples in the preceding albums, linking the three albums into a kaleidoscopic mobius strip.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>On</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 406px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=2332510059/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/on\">On by Markus Mehr</a></iframe>\r\nJuly 2012\r\n<div></div>\r\nThe new album <em>On</em> by German experimental ambient artist Markus Mehr, forms the second part of a triptych that also includes recent release <em>In</em> and the forthcoming <em>Off</em>.\r\n\r\n<em>On</em> is a continuation of the experimental direction of Markus Mehr’s previous releases, with eight diverse tracks employing samples, field recordings and slathers of Mehr’s trademark distorted drones. This approach is apparent right from opener ‘Gonna Make You Mine’, as scything slashes of sound leap from the speakers. Single ‘Flaming Youth’ counterbalances fragments of static against a gorgeous sleepy-eyed loop of mangled lounge-jazz. A track as expansive and moving as ‘Duck Became Swan’ is followed by brief rhythmic piece ‘Olympia’. This tightrope walk between dizzying samples and exacting digital manipulation is walked with aplomb throughout <em>On</em>’s adventurous and thrilling 45-minute runtime.\r\n\r\n<em>On</em> is preceded by <em>In</em>, the first part of the triptych, which comprises two monumental tracks, ‘Komo’ and ‘Ostinato’, each of which clocks in at around 25 minutes, circling around and building upon hypnotic instrumental motifs. The final part of the triptych, Off, released on 24 January 2013, includes the most epic piece yet, ‘Transit’, which clocks in at 49 minutes and will be performed live in collaboration with video artist Stefanie Sixt, who created the video to Mehr’s single ‘Cousteau’.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>In</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 210px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=4000928914/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/in\">In by Markus Mehr</a></iframe>\r\nJanuary 2012\r\n<div></div>\r\nMarkus Mehr follows up his stunning debut album <em>Lava</em> with three new releases released over a 12 month period. In is the first part of the triptych, comprising two monumental tracks, ‘Komo’ and ‘Ostinato’, each of which clocks in at around 25 minutes, circling around and building upon hypnotic instrumental motifs. ‘Komo’ gradually emerges from silence, its distant, filtered throb reluctantly revealing its source material – a heartbreaking string part whose emotional impact intensifies as the loop clarifies. ‘Ostinato’ is an altogether darker, gnarlier experience, its string loops chewed into distorted knots which are highlighted by treated guitars and crafted electronics.\r\n\r\nThe second part, <em>On</em>, released on 21 June 2012, takes a more experimental direction, with eight diverse tracks employing samples, field recordings and slathers of Mehr’s trademark distorted drones. And finally, <em>Off</em>, released on 24 January 2013, includes the most epic piece yet, ‘Transit’, which clocks in at 49 minutes and will be performed live in collaboration with video artist Stefanie Sixt, who created the video to Mehr’s single ‘Cousteau’.\r\n<div></div>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<h4>Lava</h4>\r\n<div></div>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 439px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=634202850/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/lava\">Lava by Markus Mehr</a></iframe>\r\nAugust 2010\r\n<div></div>\r\n<em>Lava</em> holds true to its title – it is a dense surge of glue-think sound, making new paths as it pushes through the landscape. But, after any destructive force there is new growth. Green shoots of melody arc out of the surface and populate the terrain as new possibilities emerge. A new master of heartbreaking ambient drone has arrived. These tracks evoke time spent transfixed, gazing through a giant looking glass, waiting wide-eyed as new discoveries are revealed in the album’s textured contours.\r\n\r\nOn epic opener ‘Agenda’, layers of gorgeous synth gradually accumulate into a gloriously massive chord. On single ‘Hubble’, a bedrock of fuzzed drone is decorated with glistening counter-melodies, tracing shards of light across the coal-black skies. ‘Softwar’ builds and then falls away, only to return with a spine-tingling theme that crumbles under its own majesty.\r\n\r\n<em>Lava</em>’s ability to both suspend the listener in its abstracted liquid vapours and at the same time imprint its affecting narrative is a special thing. It is one of those albums whose emotional impact stays with you long after you feel its last touch.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\nBased in Augsburg, south Germany, Markus Mehr’s musical journey began with the guitar. He grew up listening to bands like Black Sabbath and AC/DC, before turning his ears to darker sounds and the ethereal, experimental pop of David Sylvian. After recording and touring with several bands, he struck out on his own with home studio project Aroma.\r\n\r\nNow working under his own name, Mehr wrote and recorded his debut album <em>Lava</em> at his home studio using guitars and synths, plus any noise-making accoutrements at hand – electric shavers, ventilators, electric tooth brushes and field recordings –all processed and distorted to create a gorgeous wall of sound, akin to the classic ’70s Kosmische music of Klaus Schulze and Tangerine Dream, but also the contemporary masters of textured luminosity, Fennesz and Tim Hecker. His follow up albums, <em>In</em>, <em>On</em> and <em>Off </em> pushed the sonic and structural envelope even further and created a triptych of works that stands amongst the most engaging contemporary experimental music of our days.\r\n\r\nMehr’s extensive live performances across Europe include collaborations with visual artist Stefanie Sixt and performances in churches, galleries and large disused gas tanks amongst the more traditional festival shows.\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=markus-mehr content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title]\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Reviews\"]\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h2>Reviews</h2>\r\n[catlist name=markus-mehr-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<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Markus_Mehr-Live_In_Bari.pdf\"><em>Live in Bari</em> Album Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Markus_Mehr-Off.pdf\"><em>Off</em> Album Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Markus_Mehr-Duck_Became_Swan.pdf\">‘Duck Became Swan’ Single Release and Music Video</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Markus_Mehr-Flaming_Youth.pdf\">‘Flaming Youth’ Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Markus_Mehr-In.pdf\"><em>In</em> Album Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Markus_Mehr_Cousteau.pdf\">‘Cousteau’ Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Markus_Mehr_Lava_Digital_Release.pdf\"><em>Lava</em> Album Digital Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Markus_Mehr_Hubble_Single.pdf\">‘Hubble’ Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Markus_Mehr_Signing.pdf\">Markus Mehr Signs to Hidden Shoal</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=\"10433,10435,9020,9021,9022,9023,9024,9025,9019\"]\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/dGRCY37hMm4?rel=0\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/PcfMLHZZomw?rel=0\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"></iframe>\r\n\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/1jIYi486n0c?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\nMarkus Mehr\'s music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.

Once you realise this you can begin appreciating <em>Unknown Knowns </em>for the interweaving guitars and all the space used by the drawn out arrangements as the mini-album/extended EP sublimely unfolds.”</em> –<strong> Drum Media</strong>\r\n\r\nFeaturing members of legendary Perth bands Umpire, Adam Said Galore and Blue Tile Lounge, Mukaizake combine intricate, dynamic guitar parts, borrowing heavily from math-inspired indie rock, with highly accessible song structures and strong melodic vocals. Their songs feature organic, reactive playing, with a depth and subtlety that is revealed on repeat listens.\r\n<a href=\"https://itunes.apple.com/us/artist/mukaizake/id330805396?uo=4&at=11lRii\" target=\"itunes_store\" style=\"display:inline-block;overflow:hidden;background:url(https://linkmaker.itunes.apple.com/htmlResources/assets//images/web/linkmaker/badge_itunes-sm.png) no-repeat;width:45px;height:15px;@media only screen{background-image:url(https://linkmaker.itunes.apple.com/htmlResources/assets//images/web/linkmaker/badge_itunes-sm.svg);}\"></a>[/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider admin_label=\"Divider\" color=\"#ffffff\" show_divider=\"off\" /][et_pb_tabs admin_label=\"Artist Tabs\"][et_pb_tab title=\"Discography\"]\r\n<h3>Discography</h3>\r\n<h4></h4>\r\n<h4>Unknown Knowns</h4>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 340px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=154443788/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://mukaizake.bandcamp.com/album/unknown-knowns\">Unknown Knowns by Mukaizake</a></iframe>\r\nNovember 2009\r\n\r\nThe cliché ‘all killer, no filler’ is often bandied around with very little to back it up. In the case of Mukaizake’s stunning new release <em>Unknown Knowns</em>, the cliché applies: this six-song, half-hour mini-album is sheer perfection. <em>Unknown Knowns</em> kicks off with the fuzzy propulsion of single ‘The Yeah Conditioner’, immediately launching the listener into Mukaizake’s compelling corner of the musical universe. This is serpentine indie-rock at its finest, weaving hook after hook around your chest until you’re suspended from the clouds, a grin plastered across your face, unable to even think about listening to anything else. ‘Rule Norse’ ups the ante with a thunderously rollicking first half that follows with gorgeous layered backing vocals and hovering guitars in the exultant, expansive second half. ‘Corporal Steam’ winds the album down a notch with its chiming circular guitar harmonics and Geoff Symons’ plaintive vocals before ‘Frisbee’ launches the listener off the edge of a cliff attached to an electric boomerang of riffs and angular melodies. Then, the stunningly wistful ‘My Friend Flicker’ and the dreamy lament of ‘Slack Bees’ bring the listener down in a pool of dazzling songmanship.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n<h4>Mapping The Static</h4>\r\n<iframe style=\"border: 0; width: 500px; height: 472px;\" src=\"http://bandcamp.com/EmbeddedPlayer/album=573741616/size=large/bgcol=333333/linkcol=ffffff/artwork=small/transparent=true/\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" seamless=\"\"><a href=\"http://mukaizake.bandcamp.com/album/mapping-the-static\">Mapping The Static by Mukaizake</a></iframe>\r\nJuly 2003\r\n\r\nMukaizake\'s brilliant debut album mixes elements of math-rock, indie-rock and post-rock into a sublime and mesmerisingly melodic whole. <em>Mapping the Static</em> presented a sound that was somehow innately representative of the best music of their home town of Perth, yet also traversed far beyond it. The scope of Mukaizake\'s songwriting and sense of melody on their debut was, and still is, something to behold.\r\n\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Bio\"]\r\n<h3>Biography</h3>\r\nMukaizake formed in 1999 when four friends banded together to create a new voice in the Perth music scene. The band comprises Dan Erickson (Bluetile Lounge), Simon Struthers (Umpire, Adam Said Galore), Geoff Symons (Umpire, ex-Adam Said Galore, O!), and Michael Lake (Umpire, ex-Adam Said Galore). The band have supported artists such as Mercury Rev, Death Cab For Cutie, Will Oldham, Dave Pajo (Papa M, Slint), Something For Kate, The Sleepy Jackson and Big Heavy Stuff, to name a few. Simon Struthers has produced albums for artists such as Felicity Groom, Bob Evans, Apricot Rail and The Kill Devil Hills.\r\n\r\nAfter a lengthy absence from the Australian music scene, Mukaizake are set to release <em>Unknown Knowns</em>, the stunning follow up to their highly acclaimed 2003 album <em>Mapping the Static</em>. The band combines intricate, dynamic guitar structures, borrowing heavily from math-inspired indie rock, with highly accessible song structures and strong melodic vocals. Their songs feature organic, reactive playing, with a depth and subtlety that is revealed on repeat listens.\r\n\r\nThe recording for <em>Unknown Knowns</em> began back in 2004, when the band set aside a long weekend to lay down basic tracks. Soon after this initial recording, members of the band relocated to different cities across Australia, putting the band on temporary hiatus. The songs have since evolved, with the band utilising Forensic Audio, Simon’s recording studio, to record and re-work the songs over time, with the final mixes finally finished mid-2009.\r\n\r\nThe extended production and recording process gave the band time to fully realise the awesome potential of the songs. As a result, the six track mini-album is an inspired marriage of melody and composition, all held together by extraordinary musicianship.\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=mukaizake-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=mukaizake-reviews content=yes pagination=no title_tag=h4 title_class=lcp_title][/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Press Releases\"]\r\n<h3>Press Releases</h3>\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Mukaizake_Unknown_Knowns_US.pdf\"><em>Unknown Knowns</em> US and Worldwide Digital Album Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Mukaizake_Single.pdf\">‘The Yeah Conditioner’ Single Release</a>\r\n\r\n<a href=\"../../publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Mukaizake_Signing.pdf\">Mukaizake Sign to Hidden Shoal Recordings</a>\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Gallery\"]\r\n<h3>Artist Photos</h3>\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n[gallery columns=\"2\" ids=\"9061,9062\"]\r\n[/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=\"Video\"]\r\n<h3>Music Videos</h3>\r\n<iframe src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/9gV6yyJIUiI?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\nMukaizake\'s music is  available for licensing (master &amp; sync cleared) through Hidden Shoal.
