Jilk and Haiku Salut, "Periscopes"

Barbarossa - Solid Soul

Release Date : 23rd February 2015

Grasscut, the duo of Andrew Phillips and Marcus O’Dair, return in February with a new single, Curlews/September Night’s Sky – the first single from the band’s forthcoming third album, Everyone Was A Bird, to be released by Lo Recordings in May 2015. 

Whilst first performed in collaboration with the Kronos Quartet to over 4,000 people in a warehouse in Poland, Curlews origins lie much closer to home. It’s meditative piano intro, soaring strings and sense of open skies and distant horizons inspired by the British coastline. “I’d started it on the train from Birmingham to Wales,” say Phillips, “and as I reworked it later for the album the music, especially the piano and string rhythms, kept pulling me back back to the Mawddach Estuary. I kept stripping layers and layers away, till eventually the melody, mood, and words were exposed – like they'd always been there.”

“The poet Harriet Tarlo cautions against the lazy use of ornithological metaphors for human emotion, but watching the curlews on the estuary, I really thought: this is me, digging around in the mud till I find it. I hope that's not lazy.”

That sense of place and belonging resonates throughout much of Grasscut’s work, and the forthcoming album features liner notes from the renowned landscape writer Robert Macfarlane. 

Alongside Curlews comes September's Night Sky, a story of a spring equinox in the Southern Hemisphere. Scored by fragmented keyboards, guitars and sweeping strings it brings to mind the sense of both majesty and fragility that a starry night can inspire.

September's Night Sky

'Sionara' by Maiians
Released as D/L April 20th 2015 via Beard Museum

Double drum-propelled live electronica stars Maiians return with hypnotic single 'Sionara'

"One of the most exciting instrumental groups around." - London in Stereo
"Intricate rhythms, heady bass lines and squealing, kaleidoscopic synth lines mix into a hypnotic recipe...Maiians demand attention." - The Line of Best Fit

Following their debut 'Tokyo' EP, Oxford 5-piece Maiians return with new single 'Sionara' on April 20th. 
Clocking in at just under 7 minutes, the epic track is a masterclass in musical mind control and filmic elegance. Building in pace piece by piece, 'Sionara' teeters on the edge of the storm before soaring up into a haze of post-rock guitar, ground-shaking beats and jagged synths. With musical nods to Four Tet, Holy Fuck and Mogwai, 'Sionara' somehow manages to be both hypnotic and ear-worm immediate all at once.

Since their conception in early 2014, Maiians have been turning heads with their double-drum propelled electronica and arresting live performances. The band are set to play three UK dates this April in support of the single:

April 17th - The Bullingdon, Oxford
April 18th - Are You Listening? Festival, Reading
April 21st - The Lexington, London

Recorded by Richard Neuberg 
Mixed by Bartosz Kruczynski
