If this doesn't reach deep into the heart, nothing does. One of my favourite modern classical artists. He perfectly combines electronica with violins etc. <3
yea can't get over how good these guys are. they have another record, a soundtrack i believe, called "always in postscript". just really beautiful tape music, strings, piano, guitar, yummy goodness!
I'm extremely thankful to Amo Bishop Roden for recommending Hammock's album 'Maybe they will sing for us tomorrow' on another thread as it's now one of my favourites, i'd say it sits quite well on this thread.
no prob! they've become my most played over the past couple years. really amazing restraint and attention to detail. and tape! oh the tape! i went on a train trip last summer and all i played on repeat was "echo park" and "always in postscript" on repeat ripped straight from the vinyl. they were thoroughly narcoleptic trips indeed. here's postscript on bandcamp for all those interested, available on 10" vinyl:
Of the SotL side projects, Brian McBride's solo stuff doesn't seem to get mentioned as often - he seems to lean more to the classical direction on his own. The Effective Disconnect is a spectacularly beautiful album.
