  1. Codes In The Clouds on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads another Erased Tapes beauty, but im unable to help out on this occassion...can anyone else? looking for date around 22/23 June. or i may direct them even further north to Invernes.. anyone that wants to help them out can contact Robert at records@erasedtapes.com some info/quotes for those unfamiliar.. 'This Kent-based quintet find themselves on the cusp of what looks to be a very promising career!' Ones To Watch in 2009 Rock Sound 'Distant Street Lights screams the word Ambition! with every subtly-crafted chord. Fractures is possibly the most gripping piece of music you'll hear this year, almost like the final chapter from a Jack Arnott novel.' (8/10) Single of the Week Drowned In Sound 'Upon hearing Distant Street Lights I was drawn in like the proverbial moth to the flame, while Fractures fuelled my appetite for more, its an album we really want.' The Silent Ballet 'With their blissful brand of post-rock, this quintet will warm many a jaded soul.' The Best New Music Rock Sound 'Featured track On The Radar.' Huw Stephens, BBC Radio 1 'I love every second of it!' BBC Radio Northern Ireland 'One of the best tunes i've heard in a while, like mogwai having a punch up with boards of canada. Superb! Another play this week and more to come.' Isles FM (Scotland) 'There's incredible depth here for a band at the start of their career.' (4/5) High Voltage 'Even though its probably our ignorance, we've yet to find a strong British act that rivals some of the better foreign post rock artists. Guess what? We think weve found one.' - HecklerSpray.com 'Easy comparisons of their work float right to the top with all the gusto that youd expect of Explosions In The Sky or Mogwai. Hailing from the UK, Codes starts with all the right moves and then goes quiet only to erupt in a monolith of sound minutes later.' The Drop (US) 'An epic, majestic take on swooning post-rock. Weaving spidery guitar lines across a landscape of subdued drum patters and gorgeously strewn outbursts of distortion, Distant Street Lights is a song that wallows in waltz-like post-rock beauty, militaristic drum beats punctuating the post-rocking instrumental sublimity.' UK Music Search 'A highly successful exercise in epic instrumental music.' Boomkat Records

  13. Dizzy Storm, IMP & Vocoustics are very pleased to be bringing this lovely bunch to Aberdeen, for your listening pleasure BALMORHEA (Austin, Texas) .:Western Vinyl:. Balmorhea on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads BALMORHEA (pronounced BAL-MOOR-AY) are Rob Lowe & Michael Muller, who now boast a 6 piece band, working in collaboration with Aisha Burns on Violin, Nicole Kern on Cello, Taylor Thean on drums and Travis Chapman on Upright Bass. They self-released their first album, Balmorhea, in April 2007 and followed up with Rivers Arms in February 2008. Balmorhea have toured the US three times and released a limited edition, hand numbered Tour EP at the end of 2008. They recently completed their third full-length, entitled All Is Wild, All Is Silent, which has just been released on Western Vinyl. Their music has the swells of Stravinsky, the mercurial keyboard majesty of Debussy, the triad-based romanticism of Arvo Prt, the clangorous sensuality of Keith Jarrett, and the electronics-meet-acoustics approach of Max Richter. If those names don't mean much to you, just think of Balmorhea as pretty music that works on multiple levels! Balmorhea's music is gorgeous, dynamic, and emotive, combining piano, acoustic and electric guitars, banjo, strings, and samples into short passes, so that nothing's too consuming or exhausting. Following global acclaim of Rivers Arms, performances have included shows with Stars of the Lid, Efterklang, Anathallo, Eluvium, Caspian, This Will Destroy You, Grouper and Fleet Foxes among others. In August of 2008, Balmorhea hit the US West Coast again with label-mate Bexar Bexar and Sub Pops Tiny Vipers before heading back into the studio for work on their 3rd full-length. A self-released EP also came out of that same session that sold out its limited pressing in a few short weeks. So far in 2009, Balmorhea toured NW US with virtuoso Peter Broderick in January, played 3 shows at this years SXSW and will embark on a month long european tour in April one local support confirmed..

Whichever it is, stories of sad-sack-drunks and broken-hearted-lovers to the tune of the 60s folk revival with a hint of 90s Lo-Fi, sounds very good, and errr very grown up?!

  16. Dizzy Storm & Force of Habit come together to ensure the return of the mighty mighty Chickenhawk to Aberdeen...yus! and we have Tunnel 1 on a Saturday night...yus!! therefore, a mighty sound engineer...yus!! CHICKENHAWK CHICKENHAWK on MySpace Music - Free Streaming MP3s, Pictures & Music Downloads Born 2004. Made songs. Recorded three songs in 2005. Demo released. Recorded two more songs in 2006. Split with I Breathe Spears and With Scissors released on Millipede Records. Recorded 12 songs from April - December 2007. Album released 2008. Drummer Matt Reid joined late 2008, Stick Phil Collinsed to the front. Here endeth the history lesson. their debut album 'Chickenhawk' is a raging schizophrenic multi-personality disorder of an album. Insanely original and musically adept the four members have fashioned a UK sound that stands up to the heavy avant guard of Naked City and Mr. Bungle whilst also having the riffs and head-banging nature of Melvins and Harvey Milk. SAT 23RD MAY TUNNEL 1 DOORS 8PM TBC SUPPORTS TBA

  18. yep, Joe Gideon were fantastic, i really enjoyed them just listening to the album again now Tupelo Town Assembly were top notch, look forward to more of that sometime and how good were Amy Sawers?! i love the new stuff.. i think drummers should play to the front/side of the stage more often, instead of being hidden at the back! its more interesting, or something
  19. i did! in fact, if im not mistaken, it was the first song that Phil played?! it was my cue for the dancefloor if i remember hehe!
  20. erm possibly...but thats just too much like hard work for me ross!
