beautifully produced,inspiring piece of music,rich in nutrients....

For the past eight years the duo of Rob Lowe and Michael Muller have nurtured and refined their creative partnership as the core members of the band Balmorhea.  Though their first album on Western Vinyl Rivers Arms (2008) garnered some remarkable press, their self-titled debut, recorded in 2006 and released in 2007 best captures the duo's unique magic as it first blossomed.  With no label, distributor, manager, publicist, or booking agent the duo quietly self-released their first recordings and started playing live shows. 

For these two Texans the release of their self-titled album was the beginning of a new trajectory in their lives.  They were young enough that their prefrontal cortexes were still developing, but old enough to tap into the ancient stories that coursed through their veins.  Though crudely recorded at home, those early songs display all of the key characteristics and emotional scope that continue to define the duo's sound.  Now, seven years later Western Vinyl is honored to have the opportunity reissue the band's self-titled album, and make it available on vinyl for the first time ever.

In honor of this special reissue, the audio has been lovingly remastered, drawing out even more of the nuances…magnifying the sounds of Muller and Lowe's fingers on the instruments, and teasing out the textures that set these recordings apart from the rest of their catalog.  Simple and sincere, these songs and ambient sounds the duo captured in these recordings are strangely inviting.  Throughout the album the distant sounds of Texas grackles, the warm summer rain, the steady rhythm of crickets chirping, and creaking wooden stools, all seeping in to cradle the notes in a restrained din of primordial wonder.

Elskavon - Letting Go

Taken from their critically acclaimed third album ‘Everyone Was A Bird’, ‘Radar’ is the new single from Grasscut, the duo of Andrew Phillips and Marcus O’Dair. 

Literally, and metaphorically, about the search for illumination ‘Radar’ was written by Phillips on a clear cold night in a forest in mid Wales, whilst lights from both across the estuary and the ancient stars above flickered through the trees, and borrows its title and chorus line ‘the world is dark as radar’ from American poet George Oppen. 

Featuring propulsive drums, intense Moog bass, clipped pizzicato strings that ping like photons from Geese and vocals from Elisabeth Nygård and Andrew Phillips, Radar is a highlight of an album described as “inspiring “ by The Wire and “thoughtful and beautifully reflective" by Electronic Sound.

Accompanying the original is a remix by noted New Zealand born composer and violinist, and former member of the Durutti Column, John Metcalfe who carefully deconstructs the song, teasing apart each individual element allowing us to immerse ourselves in each individual note.

PRESS PRAISE FOR ‘EVERYONE WAS A BIRD’

"As much an all-encompassing art piece as it is a pop record, EWAB would make the perfect accompaniment to an afternoon flat on your back at a sun-strafed festival this summer" - Q

"Inspiring" - The Wire

“Thoughtful and beautifully reflective" - Electronic Sound

“Beautifully simple music – as experimental as it’s pop-oriented” - The Irish Times 

“it’s all as accessible as the countryside, with a sweeping sense of the arcadian in the grandly arranged Cinematic Orchestra- style climax to ‘Fallswater’, and ‘Red Kite’s nostalgic heightening flights of fancy.” - Uncut
 
"Their work is always extraordinary, slightly challenging, and always rewarding" - Tom Robinson, BBC 6music
 
'Really beautiful, I love it... Gorgeous.' – Stuart Maconie, BBC 6music
 
“by doing more with less, Everyone Was A Bird soars” - The Quietus
 
“An organic, naturalistic sound, a kind of galloping, robust folk music, a summoning of Romantic sentiment through modern orchestration” - The 405

L'aupaire - Flowers (Lambert Rework)

‘blind’ is a reflection about human limitations. Interviewed about agnosticism, David Attenborough brilliantly stresses the point whether we’re missing senses to perceive and understand the world around us - what a pretension it would be! Built as a subtle transition from acoustic to electronic, the piece blends genres, deconstructs categories, pushes back boundaries alongside a spectrum reflecting human’s potential to self-transcendence. Might we be blind at night, at least we aren’t deaf.

'blind' est une réflexion sur les limitations humaines. Un jour interviewé à propos de l'agnosticisme, David Attenborough s'interrogeait à savoir si nous possédions tous les sens nécessaires pour percevoir et comprendre le monde qui nous entoure - quelle prétention ce serait d’y croire! Construite en subtile transition de l'acoustique vers l'électronique, la pièce métisse les genres, déconstruit les catégories, repousse les limites en proposant un spectre reflétant le potentiel humain à l'autotranscendance. Bien qu'aveugles la nuit, au moins ne sommes-nous point sourds.
