The Geometry of Shadows

2nd preview track from the new album available October 5 2012 from Relaxed Machinery and http://brokenharbour.bandcamp.com/ - 'Luminosity is probably the most uplifting track on the album, and the most complex, with many dense layers of synthesizers.

It's also my personal favorite from 'The Geometry of Shadows'.

Luminosity

Ansible

Mix an unnatural obsession with 2001: A Space Odyssey and a need to communicate without resorting to words and you find yourself in the aural spaces created by Broken Harbour. Canadian musician Blake Gibson takes his sounds from sources as diverse as worn-out cassette tapes, scratchy CDs, vast synthesizer constructs and mellotrons, then filters them through influences ranging from Debussy and Holst to vidnaObmana and Stars of the Lid. The outcome is a new sound unfettered by convention or expectation, interested only in the purity of expression. "It's not really a choice or a decision to create," Gibson says. "The music has to come through. You just have to be listening." Listen to Broken Harbour. It's time.

-John Shanahan, Sept 2011
