The Shallows was recorded December 7th, 2013 in a practice space in Allston, MA.  When the band and I got back from a mini-tour at the end of November, I took a couple days off to demo some new songs and then re-recorded them the following Saturday.  I really wanted to have a more cohesive feeling this time around by recording everything in one day.  After a week or so of listening to and mixing the songs in a few different places like my favorite restaurant, my car, walking around my neighborhood, at work and at home, I sent them over to be mastered.

Available 3/25 via Disposable America on Light Blue Vinyl (200).

Dick Diver - Tearing The Posters Down

Right Next To You
By: Matt Menovcik

V1 
It was just another day
The sunshine, the routine
Walking these steps the same way
Lost in a world you’ve always seen

V2
You were out just living life
The people, the atmosphere
When a sight turns your day to night
And you open your eyes to this moment 

C
And you see all around you
And you see so many lives out there 
It’s all intertwined and related 
It feels so far, but it’s right next to you 

V3
You find yourself in the dark
The beauty, the mystique
Living life with a broken heart
And you surrender to this moment 

C

Br
You find yourself back home 
And everything’s the same 
Except you 
You’ll never be the same 
You’ll never be the same 
Again 

C
Next to you
Next to you
Next to you

Next To You (featuring background vocals by Malissia)

Wouldn't Even Know (feat. Bill Ryder Jones)

Taken from the forthcoming album Penrose Winoa, pre-order here: http://www.artishardrecords.co.uk/categories/oro-swimming-hour

Today we're extremely excited to announce the debut album from Oro Swimming Hour; a magical two piece featuring Bristol's own Oliver Wilde and children's book illustrator Nicholas Stevenson (also of Lucky Shivers). The 16 track album mastered by Orchid Tapes Warren Hildebrand is full to the brim with freak-folk anthems, lo-fi bedroom pop and the sound of Elliot Smith summoned to a torch-lit seance. 

Penrose Winoa was recorded in the space of five short days in the living room of Oliver's shared house using analogue equipment. If you listen closely enough, amongst the hiss and crackle of the tape fuzz you'll pick up the comings and goings of various housemates as well as Sparklehorse the cat. With no track lasting longer than 3 minutes the album passes by in a breeze whilst inducing the feeling of a pleasantly sticky summer day. 

The album is due for release on 28th July on ltd edition splatter effect 12" and also on all the normal digital places, you can pre-order it now from our shop and you'll receive an instant download of two tracks. 

We'll also be hosting an extremely special release party in Bristol in At The Well Launderette on 21st July. Limited tickets are available for £5 and include a free risograph print designed and hand-numbered by Nicholas. There will also be a full tour announcement soon, but get in touch if you'd like Oro to play your living room, kitchen, garden or local launderette.

Oliver has always been a personal hero of ours, Nicholas has created some of the best art to ever grace an Art is Hard release and Warren from Orchid Tapes had added just the sort of magic mastering dust you'd expect from someone who had a hand in Alex G's DSU. We really can't wait for you to hear this one.
