Out of my hands.

Too Young still maintains that pop-driven melody and instrumentation that you hear in the other tracks on their debut EP, however it pushes on new boundaries. It displays a new direction that SKIES are moving in, away from the purely midi-driven sounds and towards a stronger blend of organic and electronic sounds. You can really hear this through the incorporation of live drums, percussion and analogue synths in this track.

Too Young

TRACK 6: WONDER
    Bridge: Awe at Participation
    Verse
        How did I get written
        Into something this immense
        A finite speck of carbon
        With infinite consequence
        I could spend forever asking
        Why I'm part of this design
        Or I could just keep building
        One small brick at a time
    Chorus
        Wonder—at being woven in
        Wonder—at where I've been placed
        Part of the becoming
        Part of the infinite face
        Wonder
    Hook
        Wonder—woven in
        Wonder

BLANK TAPE ANNOUNCE DEBUT RELEASE AS LABEL - Melbourne's Texture Like Sun have just completed their debut EP, and it's now time to launch with three special shows down the east coast w/ Patrick James.  The EP is available digitally and physically through Blank Tape Music/MGM on the 2nd of November.

The self-titled EP was recorded across Darwin and Melbourne's Bounce County Studios, produced by award winning Pip Norman (Countbounce - TZU, Sparkadia, Ash Grunwald) and mixed by Dan Rejmer - a man who counts Bjork, Foals and Paul Kelly among his working credits. While the six piece’s sound couldn't be further away from anything they’ve done before, their cohesive approach remains apparent; evident through the effortless guild that bridges each of the songs on the EP.
The earthy vocals may draw ghostly parallels to Jeff Buckley and Scott Matthews, while there’s a certain zealousness that sees the band paint their folk and roots stylings through accounts of both brighter times and others of fragile refrain.
Compelling song writing doesn't need embellishment. Texture Like Sun may just seem to be another band dwelling on the human condition, but there’s a quality about the EP that descends well beyond just plaintive lyricism. Haunting track ʻBottleʼ is a moving account of addiction and loss in all its forms. The strength of this EP may be evident in its honest subject matter; the striking string section featured in ʻRubber Manʼ and the pacing melody of ʻOne Great Prizeʻ still salvages a sense of great warmth. Similarly, the slow, ruminative guitar of ʻWeekendʼ distils a dreamlike imprint of early mornings spent with the one you love.
There are releases that stay with you for a long time; songs which mirror our own stories, artists who mark themselves distinct - and others who, put more simply, are just quietly brilliant.
