SLA11: Lullaby for the Dead by @angehalliwell

Type: Album
Format: Digital / CD
Releasedate: July 8th 2022
Cat. number: SLA12

Ange Halliwell first touched the harp when he was 12 years old. From the verdant countryside of southwestern France, he composes music combining hypnotic arpeggios, sound layers and voices sometimes sung, spoken or shouted. Ange Halliwell's creations are intimately linked to nature. They feed on multiple influences: traditional music, lyricism, contemporary hyper pop... We can hear the sound of cicadas in his music, in his clips, we run alongside Pastou, his faithful companion and muse. In a total project, Ange Halliwell creates a musical and visual universe that is both luminous and melancholy.

With his new album "Lullaby for the dead", Ange explores different universes in which grief, creatures, hopes and contemplation are mixed. Through his electric harp and other elements such as the voice, the hurdy-gurdy or a tale, each piece is like a prayer, a tribute to these invisible worlds and these emotions that overwhelm us all at some point in our lives. "Fly, fly beautiful soul! The afterlife awaits you..."

Mixed & mastered by Lorenzo Targhetta
'Walk Away' produced by Milyma & Ange
'Harvest Moon' hurdy-gurdy played by Camecrude
Cover idea by Malibu

@ssaliva achieves euphoric melancholy remixing @preciousmetalsx founder @therealendgame. 

The audiovisual artist, a lynchpin of Slagwerk and Belgium's wider scene, joins the likes of x/o, Nammy Wams and Estoc on a remix followup to ENDGAME’s ’Surrender’ album. Bleeding-edge stuff.

Reimagining anxious avant-club dystopia, Ssaliva sublimates blissed ambience, slow, wistful keys and the trace echo of disembodied voices into a heart-rending, downbeat elegy.

'Surrender Remix' is out April 7th on Precious Metals.

The chronicle continues, deepening the legend… Out Under Streets serves as a milestone in the profuse and vastly intangible catalog of Bug Bus Piano – a decade into the cult project’s existence, this album stands as its first LP. But Bug Bus Piano, the originator of Hard Ambient, is perhaps better understood as an outlook or world unto itself. At any given moment it is a spirited performance of hyper-ambivalence, a refuge and processing center for personal history, populist strife and achievement, a besieged utopian commune. Out Under Streets is the newest export of this philosophy and perhaps the finest point of entry yet into all that is Bug Bus Piano. Far from didactic, the journey underground and back again concept which structures the record serves as a vehicle to consider what lies beneath the potholes in our pavement and centuries of cracked sidewalk. Every demolition or collapse and each successive failure at putting the pieces back together again. Having received the blessing of Carriswheel, Stern Records is proud to inaugurate itself with a major handmade ambient statement by Bug Bus Piano.
