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’, <em>Machine Is My Animal</em> carries the listener through a glistening science fiction future, as viewed from a wistful child’s window.\n\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.\n\n<em>“Australia’s new finest dream-pop duo ascend to orbit... City Of Satellites venture beyond the troposphere on their debut CD Machine Is My Animal. Hazy, ethereal vocals and magisterial synth soundscapes wrap the sensors like rich ice cream upon pressing play... Manuel’s Air-redolent, multitracked vocals are angelic for the lack of a better description... the album radiates glacial atmospherics not heard in this country since the halcyon days of otherworldly Tasmanians The Paradise Motel.”</em> <strong>– Rave Magazine</strong>\n\n<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=34&amp;products_id=129\"><em>Machine Is My Animal</em></a> is available now through Hidden Shoal Recordings.

The EP follows the release of the incredibly popular and well received debut single \'<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=34&amp;products_id=84\">Moon In The Sea</a>\'.\n\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.\n\nThe full 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 near-25-minute EP to a close.\n\n<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=34&amp;products_id=87\"><em>The Spook</em> is now available</a> through Hidden Shoal Recordings in both CD and digital format.

The EP kicks off with the single ‘Anything Is Everything’, a post-midnight drive through a flaking neon city. Crisp programmed drums, warm synths and surging bass weave through a mist of skittering textures and falling light particles. Then, there’s the urgent phasing science of ‘Archive’, the outer planetery dub of  ‘Always Enough’, and the creeping, insistent epic ‘All In’. It’s the kind of glowing electronica that could loop endlessly, such is the allure of its ebullient, cyclical melodies.\n\n<em>“it’s gorgeous, in fact frankly its sublime… A beautifully snoozing dream woven treasure… all crunchy beats, heart caressing tenderised electronic symphonic swathes… A gem”</em> <strong>– Losing Today on single ‘Anything is Everything’</strong>\n\nAcclaimed electronic producers Medard Fischer (Arc Lab) and Tim Arndt (Near The Parenthesis) have never been in the same room nor even spoken. They ‘met’ online for the first time through their debut label, Toronto-based MMBP, and developed immediate admiration for each other’s work. From their online musical collaboration comes Down Review, melding their unique sensibilities to create a delicious hybrid – warm, human electronica for alienating times.\n\n<em>From Here, For Anyone</em> is available now through Hidden Shoal Recordings. The EP is distributed in the US and Europe via <a href=\"http://n5mailorder.com/hiddenshoal\" target=\"_blank\">n5Mailorder</a> and in Australia through Hidden Shoal Distribution.

But from their online musical collaboration comes Down Review, melding their unique sensibilities to create a delicious hybrid - warm, human electronica for alienating times.\n\nDown Review’s initial collaboration was featured on Near the Parenthesis’ album <em>Of Soft Construction</em> (<a href=\"http://n5md.com/\" target=\"_blank\">n5MD</a>, 2007). Their work on the track ‘Sitting in a Room’ was clearly a departure from the typical NTP aesthetic, situating Medard’s drum-programming wizardry and signature basslines beneath Arndt’s more ethereal creations.  The result was arguably the album’s stand-out track, which “rather anomalously adds bass-heavy funkiness to the sparkling flow” (<a href=\"http://www.textura.org/\" target=\"_blank\">Textura</a>).\n\nDown Review’s debut EP <em>From Here, For Anyone</em> is to be released by Hidden Shoal on 11th August, preceded by the single ‘Anything is Everything’ on 9th July.\n\nRead a full press release <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Down_Review_Signing.pdf\">here</a> and listen to a sneak preview of the upcoming single ‘Anything is Everything’ on <a href=\"http://www.myspace.com/downreview\" target=\"_blank\">Down Review\'s Myspace page</a>.','Hidden Shoal Announces Down Review Signing','','inherit','closed','closed','','1424-revision-v1','','','2016-02-03 13:57:08','2016-02-03 05:57:08','',1424,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/1424-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(13533,1,'2016-02-03 15:34:58','2016-02-03 07:34:58','<a href=\"http://www.kbrpradio.com/\" target=\"_blank\"><img class=\"alignleft\" title=\"Slow Dancing SOciety - &quot;Laterna Magica&quot;\" src=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/store_images/laterna.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"100\" height=\"100\" />KBRP</a> (Arizona) loving for Hidden Shoal as <a href=\"http://hiddenshoal.bandcamp.com/album/terrane\">Gilded</a> get a CMJ rotation add , <a href=\"http://slowdancingsociety.bandcamp.com/album/laterna-magica\">Slow Dancing Society</a> sit at 22 on the Top 30 and <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=42&amp;products_id=204\">Elisa Luu</a> sits at number 4 and <a href=\"http://slowdancingsociety.bandcamp.com/album/laterna-magica\">Slow Dancing Society</a> number 7 on the Electronic Chart.

With its sighing, lilting qualities, Elisa Luu’s music reawakens a sense of childlike wonder and adventure with every sprawling and sparkling track. This alchemical touch is in full bloom on long-awaited second album <em>Un Giorno Sospeso</em>, which takes the glorious blueprint of debut <em>Chromatic Sigh</em> and accentuates the highlights and shadows, making for a deliciously disorientating trip.\n\n<em>“fully-formed music-making that blends melody-based song structures and bold instrumental arrangements into a thoroughly satisfying whole”</em> - <strong> Textura </strong>\n\n<em>“an astonishingly talented artist, crafting immersive and emotive soundfields with ease”</em> - <strong>Luna Kafe</strong>\n\nHead to the <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=index&amp;cPath=42\">Hidden Shoal Store</a> to grab the track and hear more from Elisa Luu ahead of her sophomore album <em>Un giorno sospeso, </em>out 1st June.\n\n[soundcloud params=\"auto_play=false&amp;show_comments=true\"]http://soundcloud.com/hidden_shoal/elisa-luu-se-fosse-per-me[/soundcloud]\n\n&nbsp;\n\n&nbsp;','New Single From Elisa Luu - Free Download!','','inherit','closed','closed','','5181-revision-v1','','','2016-02-03 15:34:59','2016-02-03 07:34:59','',5181,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/5181-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(13543,1,'2016-02-03 15:34:59','2016-02-03 07:34:59','We\'ve just started playing with <a href=\"http://8tracks.com/hiddenshoal\" target=\"_blank\">8tracks</a> in the hope of getting regular mixes published for your listening pleasure.

The brand new track is a delicious appetiser for Elisa Luu’s next full-length on Hidden Shoal. It overlays levitating guitars and droning synths in heartbreaking counterpoint. ‘Come’ re-enforces Elisa Luu’s place as one of the leading proponents of the post-ambient guard, creating work via alchemy rather than simple marriage. The track is bundled with the epic and aptly titled ‘Pixie Space Rock’, the second song to be released from debut album <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=42&amp;products_id=117\"><em>Chromatic Sigh</em></a>. Together, these stunning tracks betray a sensitivity that is rarely found in the often male-dominated sphere of electronica. With its sighing, lilting qualities, Elisa Luu’s music creates a blissful, liminal realm where everything is rendered transformative.\n\n<em>“A stellar work of ambience, Chromatic Sigh refracts the sound of cool intelligence. As far as descriptions go, you can trot out the usual suspects, like shimmering and sparkling, because they apply in abundance… There’s something cyclical about the music on Chromatic Sigh, and electronically this places listeners in the wondrous open spaces that still boom quietly in our natural world. These spaces are Elisa Luu’s sonic gift to the chumps stranded in suburbia or packed away in cramped apartments.”</em> <strong>- Delusions of Adequacy </strong>\n\n‘Come’ along with bonus track ‘Pixie Space Rock’ is available for<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=42&amp;products_id=150\"> free download from the Hidden Shoal Store</a>.

Single ‘The Garden’ creates a humid atmosphere of synths and glistening textures, carried aloft by crisp, skittering drum breaks. Melancholic centerpiece ‘Slow Bass Flute’ – which also appeared on debut EP Floating Sounds (Phantom Channel) – is so emotionally weighty that one can’t help but feel humbled in its presence. And album closer ‘Warn Plate’ is the gentle return to terra firma, leaving the listener conscious of having visited somewhere unique, complex and beautiful.\n\n<em>“gorgeous stuff, timid and trembling, frail and fragile - the ice sculptured craftsmanship eking out a beauti-fied solitary elegance much recalling the early career work of Mum… most alluring and lulling stuff”</em> <strong>– Losing Today on single ‘The Garden’</strong>\n\n<em>Chromatic Sigh</em> is now available in digital format from the <a href=\"http://agora.hiddenshoal.com\">Hidden Shoal Store</a> and all good third-party digital music stores (iTunes, eMusic, Amazon, LaLa, etc).

Its humid atmosphere of synths and glistening textures drifts effortlessly before being carried aloft by crisp drum breaks. After its five-minute run time, the listener is gently returned to terra firma, conscious of having visited somewhere unique and beautiful.\n\nThough digitally crafted, Elisa Luu’s music is warm, inviting and uniquely human, betraying a vulnerability and sensitivity that is rarely found in the male-dominated sphere of electronica. With its sighing, lilting qualities, Elisa Luu’s music reawakens a sense of childlike wonder and adventure with every sprawling and sparkling track.\n\nElisa Luu (Elisabetta Luciani) is a Rome-based composer, who began her musical career as a jazz/fusion saxophone player. Elisa has been involved in a number of musical projects over the years, including fusion quartet Prodotti Speciali and Short’s Monday Night Jazz Orchestra. She has also participated in Berklee Jazz clinics, where she received special mention as an alto sax player. In 2007 Elisa began to compose electronic music using flute, saxophone and guitar as sound sources. In 2008, UK net label <a href=\"http://www.phantomchannel.co.uk/\" target=\"_blank\">Phantom Channel</a> released her debut EP <em>Floating Sounds</em>, which garnered glowing online reviews.\n\n<em>“There is a balance of songness and sound, of an experimentalist’s emphasis on texture and a composer’s on tone, that makes Elisa Luu’s Floating Sounds (Phantom Channel) one of the most immediately awarding and arresting netlabel releases of the year thus far.”</em><strong><em> </em>– Disquiet on Floating Sounds</strong>\n\n‘The Garden’ is available for <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=42&amp;products_id=114\">free download</a> from the <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/\">Hidden Shoal Store</a> until the release of Elisa Luu’s debut album <em>Chromatic Sigh</em> on 10th September.

Following on from the release of their critically acclaimed debut album <a href=\"http://hiddenshoal.bandcamp.com/album/terrane\"><em>Terrane</em></a> and its accompanying national tour, Gilded’s new EP <em>A Smooth Sea Never Made A Skilful Sailor</em> brings together three previously unreleased and essential new tracks.\n\n‘38 Degrees (Live at The Bird)’ is a beautiful live improvised guitar-based work, rich in textural details, contrasting markedly with the more piano-focused pieces on Terrane. Shoeb Ahmad (of Canberra outfit <a href=\"http://www.spartakmusic.tumblr.com/\" target=\"_blank\">Spartak</a>) remixes 2012 single ‘Cluttered Room’, dissecting the bassline, banjo and melodica and tethering them to an itchy breakbeat, surrounding the mix with an otherworldly vocal. Hidden Shoal’s very own <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/perth/\">perth</a> also take on ‘Cluttered Room’ in their own inimitable style, creating an ebbing electro-acoustic micro-environment set adrift in clouds of reverb.\n\n<em>A Smooth Sea Never Made A Skilful Sailor</em> is available for free download from the <a href=\"http://hiddenshoal.bandcamp.com/album/a-smooth-sea-never-made-a-skilful-sailor\">Hidden Shoal Store</a> and can be streamed over at <a href=\"https://soundcloud.com/hidden_shoal/sets/gilded-a-smooth-sea-never-made\" target=\"_blank\">SoundCloud</a>.

Proving that Tame Impala aren\'t the only band from Perth that can make waves on the US charts, Gilded have managed to enter the WDCE charts at number 20, number 21 at KZSU, number 33 at WCBN charts, number 30 at CKUT and have been added to rotation at WXYC and Soma FM. And thats just the new chart info we have with more to add in the next few weeks as the album gets deeper into college radio.\n\nThe band have also racked up a number of fantastic interviews of late thanks to some lovely Australian radio and press folks.

The pair have released work seperately on labels such as 12K, Room40, hellosQuare, New Weird Australia, and Feral Media.\n\n<em>\"There are worlds in here, in this record. Microscopic examinations of simple figures and patterns, that could fill whole sides; a focus and determination that wraps everything up in 45 minutes. Beautiful, simple, deep, Terrane is simply one of the best albums you’ll hear this year. Highly recommended!\"</em> – <strong>Fluid Radio</strong> <strong>on <em>Terrane</em></strong>\n\n<em>\"Terrane is a work of adeptly inspired craftsmanship that’s very nearly breathtaking in its evolving forms, ambient without being soporific, containing an evocative and far from melancholic energy at its core...Hidden Shoal never disappoint in their releases but Terrane is a remarkable work even by their established and finely honed standards. \" -</em> <strong>DOA on</strong><em><strong> Terrane</strong></em>\n\nHead to the <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/gilded/\">Hidden Shoal Store</a> for all CD and digital orders, to stream the album in full and to download the first single from the album \'Cluttered Room\'.

Buoyant and sun-dappled, ‘Cluttered Room’ takes a handful of gleaming musical elements - ride cymbal, banjo, bass, melodica, acoustic guitar - and builds them into a wonderfully considered and thoroughly melodic structure. Akin to the most accessible tracks by acclaimed Swedish trio Tape, Gilded’s debut single is an inviting entry point into their detailed and emotionally resonant soundworld.\n\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 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. <em>Terrane</em> deftly operates around the intersections of melody and texture, movement and pause.\n\nGilded will be supporting the release of <em>Terrane </em>with a national tour in October:\n\nPerth - Sunday October 7 @ the Bird w/Benoit Pioulard, Chris and Stina &amp; Cycle~440 + Kynan Tan\nCanberra - Saturday October 20 @ The Street Theatre w/Mornings\nMelbourne - Sunday October 21 @ The Gasometer w/Regional Curse &amp; Infinite Decimals\nSydney - Friday October 26 @ 107 Projects w/Seaworthy, Pimmon &amp; Raven\nBrisbane - Saturday October 27 @ Brisbane Powerhouse for Restrung: Sounds Unbound\n\nGrab the single from the <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=56&amp;products_id=209\">Hidden Shoal Store</a> and read a full press release <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/publicity/press-releases/HSR_Press_Release-Gilded-Cluttered_Room.pdf\">here</a>.\n\n[soundcloud params=\"auto_play=false&amp;show_comments=true\"]http://soundcloud.com/hidden_shoal/gilded-cluttered-room[/soundcloud]\n\n<strong>Gilded - \'Cluttered Room\'</strong>','Gilded Single Release - Free Download','','inherit','closed','closed','','5728-revision-v1','','','2016-02-03 15:37:52','2016-02-03 07:37:52','',5728,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/5728-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(13574,1,'2016-02-03 15:37:52','2016-02-03 07:37:52','<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Terrane-1000px.jpg\"><img class=\"alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-5704\" title=\"Gilded - &quot;Terrane&quot;\" src=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/08/Terrane-1000px-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" /></a>We\'re all excitedly gearing up for the upcoming release of <em>Terrane</em>, the new album by West Australian experimental/ambient duo <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/artists/gilded/\">Gilded</a>.

The project brings together the similar but distinct musical directions of West Australian experimental musicians Matt Rösner and Adam Trainer, forging a new approach to composition and sound creation that is based as much around rhythm and repetition as it is around drone and abstraction.\n\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.\n\n<em>\"Australian sound artist Matt Rösner has generated music with a language all its own\" - </em><strong>The Weekend Australian on Matt Rösner’s <em>Alluvial</em></strong>\n\n<em>\"the interplay of experimentation shades the corners of Trainer’s world\" - </em><strong>Cyclic Defrost on Adam Trainer’s Twice <em>Worn</em></strong>\n\nMatt 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.\n\n<em>Terrane</em> is released by Hidden Shoal on 8 October, preceded by single ‘Cluttered Room’ on 31 August.

The track is a tightly woven, intimately crafted piece of textured pop. Guitars coated in dark honey play against rolling drums as Chris Mason’s 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.</em> - <strong>Press Release Excerpt</strong>\n\n‘<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=56\">September 16th</a>’  is available now exclusively from the <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=56\">HSR Store</a> and is bundled with the bonus track \'Sanctuary\'.

Thanks to Hidden Shoal Records, now a whole new generation of depressed-sounding bands can see what Half Film was all about...This is highly recommended stuff for anyone who has a Red House Painters or Low record sitting on their shelf.

The track is lifted from their soon to be reissued sophomore album of 2000, <em>The Road to the Crater.</em> Hidden Shoal is lovingly reissuing Half Film\'s two acclaimed albums – <em> East of Monument </em>(1998) and <em>The Road to the Crater</em> (2000)<em> </em>– as a double CD package on 31 October 2012.\n\n‘Machines...’ distills the Half Film aesthetic into four minutes of shadowy, see-sawing guitar splendour. The song’s slowburn never yields an easy payoff, the tension becoming its own reward, as the insistent, nagging riff roils beautifully, occasionally flaring into strummed chords before coiling back inside its brittle shell.\n\n<em>\"Low-key underground guitar atmos that\'s very moody indeed... Stark like Joy Division and darkly melodic like Neil Young\" </em>- <strong>Melody Maker on Half Film\'s second album, <em>The Road to the Crater</em></strong>\n\nThe history of Half Film began in 1995 when guitarist/vocalist Conor Devlin and bassist Eimer Devlin (now of [The] Caseworker) moved to San Francisco from the UK, based on their love of two bands from that city: Swell and American Music Club. There they were introduced to Jason Lakis. The trio recorded a demo in 1997, which was picked up by Buzz Records in Chicago. <em>East of Monument</em>, their debut album, was recorded in San Francisco over a weekend and released in spring 1998. Second album <em>The Road to the Crater</em> was laid to tape with Jim Putnam (of the Radar Bros) in LA, followed by a six-week European tour with Swell. After Conor and Eimer took a three-month break in Spain in February 2000, all three members decided to call it a day. And that was that.\n\n‘Machines, Hawks and the Perfect Equation’ is available for<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=57&amp;products_id=210\" target=\"_blank\"> free download from the Hidden Shoal Store</a>. <em>East of Monument</em> and <em>The Road to the Crater</em> are released as a double CD and in digital formats on 31 October, with CD pre-orders available on 18 October.\n\n[soundcloud params=\"auto_play=false&amp;show_comments=true\"]http://soundcloud.com/hidden_shoal/half-film-machines-hawks-and[/soundcloud]','New Single From Slowcore Marvels Half Film - Free Download','','inherit','closed','closed','','5815-revision-v1','','','2016-02-03 15:40:01','2016-02-03 07:40:01','',5815,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/5815-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(13604,1,'2016-02-03 15:40:02','2016-02-03 07:40:02','<p dir=\"ltr\"><img class=\"alignleft\" title=\"Half Film\" src=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/half-film.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"180\" height=\"115\" />Hidden Shoal is proud to announce the forthcoming reissue of the two acclaimed studio albums by <a dir=\"ltr\" href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/artists/half-film/\" target=\"_blank\">Half Film</a> - the slowcore trio fronted by [The] Caseworker\'s Conor and Eimer Devlin - who made dark waves in the US indie circuit in the latter part of the \'90s. <em>East of Monument </em>and <em>The Road to the Crater </em>are released on 18 October, preceded by the release of single \'Machines, Hawks and the Perfect Equation\' on 6 September.</p>\n<em>\"Low-key underground guitar atmos that\'s very moody indeed...

In each of its eight majestic songs, Soundcheck For A Missing Movie follows HC-B’s finely trained lens across a breathtaking instrumental rock landscape, rich with detail and swimming with emotive currents. In triumphant single ‘Hot Afternoon In The Bulls’ Square’, free-jazz horns squabble and blare like a swarm of bees before the main theme shines through like an exultant fanfare, supported by a thundering bassline. The gorgeous ‘Slow Compensation’ winds sinuous synth lines, violin and a longing male and female vocal through the swaying drums and guitars, mustering a quietly anthemic yet intimate epic. And closer ‘Missing Movie’ brings the house down with a storm of ferocious guitars.\n\n<em>“this is instrumental post-rock with attention-grabbing orchestral construction...

Hotels’ third album  sees the    much-loved band build on the strengths of their acclaimed sophomore    album <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=35&amp;products_id=100\"><em>Where Hearts Go Broke</em></a>, taking their addictive and singular meld of post-punk, shoegaze rock and cinematic pop and launching it into outer space. <em>On The Casino Floor</em> is a dizzying concept album, its seven masterful cuts telling the   story  of a secret agent, his former mentor and current arch-nemesis,   and a  nefarious prince’s plan to destroy Earth during the grand opening   of the  universe’s only outer space casino complex...\n\nThe album features the Brian-Wilson-meets-Mercury-Rev melancholy of    ‘Lonely Islands’, the majestic astral pop of the title track, the noir    surf punk of single ‘The Bat Watusi’, and the John Barry-inspired dream    rock that is finale ‘Sleep In Fame’.\n\n<em>“Hotels fuse elements of new wave, goth, and surf so seamlessly that    genre tags will be the last thing on your mind when you hear their    bittersweet, atmospheric pop songs” </em>– <strong>Time Out New York</strong>\n\n<em>“...a tightly nuanced and ominous track filled with homage to the    drive-in horror B-flicks of yesteryear. Not to mention the ghosts of    Link Wray and Dick Dale lurking in the shadows. Though cinematic in    scope, ‘The Bat Watusi’ is frantic, sinister garage rock at its    ass-shaking core.”</em> - <strong>My Old Kentucky Blog</strong>\n\n<strong> </strong><strong>Release Date and Availability</strong>\n<em>On The Casino Floor</em> is out now through Hidden Shoal Recordings and distributed via <a href=\"http://n5mailorder.com/index.php?main_page=product_music_info&amp;cPath=17&amp;products_id=1144\">n5Mailorder</a>.

The noir-punk track is Hotels at their most lithe and propulsive, with an insistent rhythm section, sci-fi synths and unashamedly rocking guitars. The song repeatedly strips itself back to a muscular yet dreamy core, only to build into a tight celestial rock frenzy.\n\n<em>On The Casino Floor</em> sees Hotels take their addictive and singular meld of post-punk, shoegaze rock and cinematic pop and launch it into outer space. The band has managed to leap headlong beyond the consummate songcraft of acclaimed sophomore album <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=35&amp;products_id=100\"><em>Where Hearts Go Broke</em></a> into the creation of a wildly inventive and immersive song-suite.

Tremolo guitars and vibraphone shimmer over the inimitable Hotels rhythm section like moonlight on a swimming pool, while Blake Madden intones a pulpy tale of “young girls crying” and “young lovers dying”. It’s beautiful, effortlessly cool, and once again proves Hotels as kings of pop melody and mood.\n\nTo round out the release come remixes of two more tracks from <em>Where Hearts Go Broke</em>. ‘Leilani’ is remixed by original Hotels keyboard player Rich Spitzer, AKA Nite Club, who pairs the catchy synth line and vocals of the original with a drum ’n’ bass racket. Bizarre, funky and addictive. ‘Near The Desert, Near The City’ is remixed by Perth’s Justin Manzano, AKA tin Man, who has also <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=40&amp;products_id=122\">remixed Hidden Shoal’s Apricot Rail</a>. tin Man foregrounds the aching nuances of the original by stripping it back and laying the bare bones of the song in a shimmering bath of shoegaze drone and dubby throb.\n\n<em>“Hotels fuse elements of new wave, goth, and surf so seamlessly that genre tags will be the last thing on your mind when you hear their bittersweet, atmospheric pop songs”</em> <strong>– Time Out New York</strong>\n\n<em>“With angular guitars, sober vocals, omnipresent synths, and a taste for the cinematic, Hotels come off like the ultimate ’80s soundtrack band, something akin to a cross between the dreamy haze of M83 and the angsty garage rock of The Strokes… Where Hearts Go Broke is an exciting, emotional record that showcases a band confident in their ability to express themselves.”</em> <strong>– PopMatters</strong>\n\nDownload the single and remixes for free through the <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=35&amp;products_id=137\">Hidden Shoal Store</a> and read a full press release <a href=\"javascript:void(0);/*1268238980747*/\">here</a>.','Hotels&#039; Single and Remixes Released - Free Download!','','inherit','closed','closed','','1815-revision-v1','','','2016-02-03 15:43:22','2016-02-03 07:43:22','',1815,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/1815-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(13656,1,'2016-02-03 15:43:22','2016-02-03 07:43:22','<img src=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/store_images/hotels.jpg\" align=\"left\" height=\"114\" width=\"170\" /> Hotels are performing again come 4th March for <em>Night of Electric Dreams</em> at The Crocodile with CMYK and Fascination Movement.

Spitzer, who works under the name Nite Club, has produced a deliciously hyperactive and ridiculously addictive dance floor deconstruct of the sweet and swinging pop that is (or was!) \'Leilani\'. Just when you think you\'ve hit the peak of this energetic remix Spitzer throws the rest of the kitchen sink at it and cranks it up several notches.  It is supremely difficult not to hit the replay button just to feel that hit of dance floor adrenaline again.\n\nThe track can be <a href=\"http://mytronic.niteclubmusic.com/track/leilani-hotels\" target=\"_blank\">download for free</a> from Nite Clubs Bandcamp site.  Also be sure to check out the original on Hotels\' <em>Where Hearts Go Broke</em> - <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=35&amp;products_id=100\">preview and buy here</a>.\n\nHidden Shoal will be releasing the second single to be lifted from <em>Where Hearts Go Broke,</em> \'The Heart That Hears Like A Bat\',<em> </em> in late February.

The EP 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.\n\n<em>“In the middle, the song holds its breath for half a moment, then rises into a blissful dream-pop threshing; a massed quilt of hammering Slowdive-ian guitars joyfully plunging down onto each beat. “Spill out the haven, throw my maths chart away, ‘cos you’re the one,” Kramies sings, in an exultant sigh. “Throw my maps, a castaway.” It’s rare to find dream-pop that resolves with such assured optimism, in which you can sense experience shifting into its proper place... Kramies seems to have mastered the talent of simply breathing it into shape.”</em> – <strong>Misfit City on the EP\'s title track.\n</strong>\n\nThe album is available in digital format as well as a very limited edition CD (limited to 50 units). The EP features artwork by the wonderful French photographer Jérôme Sevrette and all downloads include a beautiful extended digital booklet with lyrics and more of Jérôme\'s work.

That is imminently listenable, evocative and beautiful as well is a great bonus.

The artwork utilises abstracted footage and sound recordings of nearby water bodies and seeks recontextualise the Western world’s approach to water consumption and wastage.\n\nMehr and Sixt will also be performing their audiovisual piece <a href=\"http://vimeo.com/57922506\">B C H I J</a>, an examination and exploration of Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam and Judaism. Those performances will happen in Berlin on October 24 and at the Dok Festival in Kassel on November 16.\n\nThe performances for <a href=\"http://www.wunderderpraerie.de/2013/first-life-ein-melodram\">First Live</a>, a play for which Mehr contributed music, will take place on September 20 and 22 at Festival Center in Mannheim and January 17 and 18 at the Pumpenhouse in Münster.\n\nFinally, a reminder that Mehr’s fantastic new live album <em>Live In Bari</em> is available for free download from the <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/markus-mehr/\">Hidden Shoal Store</a> and <a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/live-in-bari\">Bandcamp</a>.\n\n<b>Markus Mehr Performances &amp; Installations</b>\n\nSeptember 20 - Mannheim, Festivalzentrum (w/ First Live, Theater Performance)\nSeptembe 22 - Mannheim, Festivalzentrum (w/ First Live)\nOctober 24 - Berlin, Ausland (w/ B/C/H/I/J)\nNovember 16 - Kassel, DokFestival (w/ B/C/H/I/J)\nJanuary 17-18, 2014 - Münster, Pumpenhaus (w/ First Life)\n\n[soundcloud params=\"auto_play=false&amp;show_comments=true\"]https://soundcloud.com/hidden_shoal/markus-mehr-live-in-bari[/soundcloud]\n<strong>Markus Mehr - \"Live In Bari\"</strong>','New Shows + More From Markus Mehr','','inherit','closed','closed','','7148-revision-v1','','','2016-02-03 15:52:06','2016-02-03 07:52:06','',7148,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/7148-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(13753,1,'2016-02-03 15:52:06','2016-02-03 07:52:06','<div>\n\n<a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/live-in-bari\"><img class=\"alignleft\" alt=\"Markus Mehr - \" src=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/store_images/medium/bari_MED.jpg\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" /></a>Hidden Shoal Recordings is excited to announce the release of the new <a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/live-in-bari\" target=\"_self\" data-cke-saved-href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/live-in-bari\">freely downloadable</a> album <em>Live in Bari</em> by German experimental ambient artist Markus Mehr. <em>Live in Bari</em> is a triumphant rendition of Mehr\'s critically acclaimed album <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=46&amp;products_id=220\" target=\"_self\" data-cke-saved-href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=46&amp;products_id=220\"><em>Off</em></a>, performed live with video artist Stefanie Sixt. The 45-minute piece immerses the listener in a dizzyingly beautiful yet often punishing soundworld that’s ever-shifting. Certain passages allude to other sequences and samples from Mehr’s preceding albums, linking them into a kaleidoscopic mobius strip.\n\n<em>“They’re ‘big’ compositions, the sheer scale of the sonic work is rather awe inspiring, but they never sound antagonistic or uncomfortable… it sounds like the ebb and flow of space itself – individual snippets of a grand, repeating, organic process that keeps the universe in balance…”</em> – <strong>No Ripcord</strong>\n\nLive in Bari was recorded at Timezones festival in Bari, Italy in November 2012. The four-day festival involved collaboration between Markus Mehr, Alessandra Celletti, Andrea Mangia, Massimo Carrieri, Salah addin Roberto Re David, James Brooks and Charles Hayward in the rehearsal and performance of John Cage’s ‘Musicircus’. Off was performed live at the Doppelgaenger Gallery to a rapturous reception.\n\nYou can download the album for free in MP3 and FLAC formats from the <a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/live-in-bari\" target=\"_self\" data-cke-saved-href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/live-in-bari\">Hidden Shoal Store</a> and <a title=\"Bandcamp\" href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/live-in-bari\">Bandcamp</a> and also stream the album in full over at <a href=\"https://soundcloud.com/hidden_shoal/markus-mehr-live-in-bari\" target=\"_self\" data-cke-saved-href=\"https://soundcloud.com/hidden_shoal/markus-mehr-live-in-bari\">SoundCloud</a>.\n\n[soundcloud params=\"auto_play=false&amp;show_comments=true\"]https://soundcloud.com/hidden_shoal/markus-mehr-live-in-bari[/soundcloud]\n\n</div>','Markus Mehr &quot;Live in Bari&quot; - Free Download &amp; Stream!','','inherit','closed','closed','','6755-revision-v1','','','2016-02-03 15:52:06','2016-02-03 07:52:06','',6755,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/6755-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(13754,1,'2016-02-03 15:52:06','2016-02-03 07:52:06','<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/project/markus-mehr/\"><img class=\"alignleft\" title=\"Markus Mehr\" src=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/Image/galleries/Markus_Mehr/lazy-k-slides/Markus_Mehr_6.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"177\" height=\"267\" />Markus Mehr</a>\'s <em><a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=46&amp;products_id=220\">Off</a> </em>may be his most accomplished to date. And if you sense any hesitation it is only because of the bewildering talent and depth he displays across all 4 of his releases. If we take a different tact then we could say that <em>Off</em> is a beautiful and haunting distillation of all that went before it. All the grandeur, all the subtleties, all the melodic immersion and all carefully constructed and conducted noise. <em>Off</em> is 42 minutes of uninterrupted (literally) sonic and melodic immersion and engagement. It gives as much as it asks of its listeners and then some. And we\'re not the only ones that have such thoughts!

The balance is tricky, because the opposite ends of this equation are the far ends, but Mehr makes its work perfectly. You are pummeled with the unyielding intrusion of blatantly non-musical noise, and you are salved with the reassuring solidity of the piano, and somehow it makes sense. Yes, it requires an open approach to music. If you like it pat and simple, this won’t work for you. And maybe it’s not supposed to. The triptych as a whole has been slim on easy access points, but that’s also a hallmark of Mehr’s work–he’s not easy to listen to. He is, however, well worth the effort, and Off is perhaps Mehr at his most stunning.\" - </em><strong>Hypangogue</strong>\n\nStream <em>Off</em> and get your copy of the limited edition CD release or digital package <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=46&amp;products_id=220\">here</a>.','Markus Mehr&#039;s &quot;Off&quot; Reviewed in Hypnagogue','','inherit','closed','closed','','6353-revision-v1','','','2016-02-03 15:52:06','2016-02-03 07:52:06','',6353,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/6353-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(13758,1,'2016-02-03 15:52:06','2016-02-03 07:52:06','<img class=\"alignleft\" title=\"Markus Mehr - &quot;Off&quot;\" src=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/store_images/medium/off_MED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" />If you\'ve heard this album then you will immediately understand why Markus Mehr\'s third and final installment in his year long tryptych has been attracting such glowing reviews. <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=46&amp;products_id=220\"><em>Off</em></a> has recently been covered by <a href=\"http://www.brainwashed.com/index.php?option=com_content&amp;view=article&amp;id=9549:markus-mehr-qoffq&amp;catid=13:albums-and-singles&amp;Itemid=133\" target=\"_blank\">Brainwashed</a>, <a href=\"http://acloserlisten.com/2013/02/09/markus-mehr-off/\" target=\"_blank\">A Closer Listen</a> and <a href=\"http://petalmusic.blogspot.com/2013/01/off-markus-mehr.html\" target=\"_blank\">Petal Music</a> with each reviewer providing a beautifully written insight into what is an amazing album.\n\n<em>\"There is a mind boggling breadth of ideas and moments captured in the piece, and yet no thought or melodic impulse receives less than full consideration.

Across nine mesmerising minutes, the track masterfully mutates between two wildly different musical environments. The heavy distortion that intermittently tears through at the opening of the track gradually gives way to a heartstoppingly beautiful orchestral refrain and open-ended guitar figure, before being subsumed again into fizzing, electric chaos. ‘Duck Became Swan’ continues Mehr’s ongoing exploration of texture versus melody.\n\n<em>“a cornucopia of samples, field recordings and distorted drones, and is highly recommended to fans of William Basinski, Tim Hecker and Fennesz.”</em> – My Old Kentucky Blog on <em>ON</em>\n\nThe accompanying video, created by visual artist <a href=\"https://vimeo.com/sixtsense\" target=\"_blank\">Stefanie Sixt</a>, is like a hypnotic animated re-imagining of the cover of Joy Division’s <em>Unknown Pleasures</em>, an electric monochrome dream/nightmare that vibrates with life in synch with the track’s ecstatic convulsions.\n\n\'Duck Became Swan\' is available for free download from the <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=46&amp;products_id=212\" target=\"_blank\">Hidden Shoal Store</a>. <em>On</em> is also available on <a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/on\" target=\"_blank\">CD and digital</a> formats through Hidden Shoal.\n\n<iframe src=\"http://player.vimeo.com/video/49295610?title=1&amp;byline=1&amp;portrait=1&amp;color=ffffff\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen></iframe> <p><a href=\"http://vimeo.com/49295610\">DUCK BECAME SWAN</a> from <a href=\"http://vimeo.com/sixtsense\">stefanie sixt, sixt sense</a> on <a href=\"http://vimeo.com\">Vimeo</a>.</p>','New Markus Mehr Single and Music Video!','','inherit','closed','closed','','5929-revision-v1','','','2016-02-03 15:52:07','2016-02-03 07:52:07','',5929,'http://www.hiddenshoal.com/5929-revision-v1/',0,'revision','',0),(13765,1,'2016-02-03 15:52:07','2016-02-03 07:52:07','<img class=\"alignleft\" title=\"Markus Mehr - &quot;On&quot;\" src=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/store_images/medium/markuson_MED.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" />Markus Mehr\'s latest opus <a href=\"http://markusmehr.bandcamp.com/album/on\"><em>On</em></a> has just received a wonderful review in the latest <a href=\"http://www.textura.org/reviews/mehr_on.htm\" target=\"_blank\">Textura</a>. This comes ahead of the release of a new single and music video from the album this week. More on that very soon.\n\n<em>\"Some moments of remarkable beauty occur, most memorably during the orchestrally rich settings “Only For A While” and “Tunnels,” while the cut-up collage-styled character of the recording is most blatantly displayed during the brief rhythmic stutters of “Olympia.”... Having eight separate pieces at his disposal affords Mehr the latitude to easily and abruptly shift gears in both style and mood, and consequently the samples-heavy On covers a wide range of experimental ground in its heady forty-five minutes.

Much  like Mehr\'s first single ‘<a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;amp;cPath=46&amp;amp;products_id=140\">Hubble</a>’ evoked the ink-black expanses of  outer space, second single ‘Cousteau’ (also taken from debut <a href=\"http://www.hiddenshoal.com/wp-content/uploads/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=46&amp;products_id=145\"><em>Lava</em></a>)  casts its searchlight beneath the ocean. The track’s slow, majestic  burn is a thing to behold, and further proof of Mehr’s mastery of  dynamic drone. Bubbles of fizzy static gradually fade into view before a  haunting backwards melody is introduced and then subsumed by liquiform  particles and aching synths. The track builds in pressure until the  elements fall away, leaving the backwards melody to sing anew before the  process begins again, with a renewed feeling of heartbreaking  intensity. The track’s black-hole magnetism grows as it pulls in all  around it, with the resultant build erupting into giant, arcing,  electric tendrils.\n\n<em>“In this blissful wanderlust Mehr succeeds in spades creating a   completely engrossing, engaging and all together reliable album full of   the most powerful ambient-drone tracks this year.”</em> -<strong> <a href=\"http://tometotheweathermachine.blogspot.com/2010/08/markus-mehr.html\" target=\"_blank\">Tome to the Weather Machine</a></strong>\n\nMehr’s oft collaborator, visual artist <a href=\"http://www.sixt-sense.de/\">Stefanie Sixt (Sixt Sense)</a>,  has created an incredibly rich and layered widescreen visual  accompaniment to ‘Cousteau’. Sixt’s work traverses film, performance and  animation, and has won her several key visual arts awards in Germany.\n\n‘Cousteau’ is taken from Markus Mehr\'s debut album <a href=\"http://tinyurl.com/27klgo8\"><em>Lava</em></a> out now through Hidden Shoal.

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.\n\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.\n\n<em>“…there’s something so fresh about Lava… The German musician/composer simply sounds liberated, despite the familiar vocabulary and nods to his various influences… Lava explores a wealth of approaches and destinations without getting in its own way. It’s wonderfully slow, enriching going.”</em><strong> - Cyclic Defrost</strong>\n\n<em>\"Hubble is the most gorgeous synth orchestration I\'ve heard in ages, a 1000-yard low drone gathering sparkles of melody as it rolls.\"</em> - <strong>The Underground of Happiness</strong>\n\nThe CD version of the album comes in a custom amaray case with gorgeous widescreen artwork.
