A track that I had abandoned because I didn't like it. Dug it back out and saw it a fresh and decided it was alright :)

Contemptible Shrew what have they done to you?
Contemptible Shrew I used to know you.
I am your soul, am your mind and your brain  
But not your mouth or your eyes

What can you do when heroes tow the line?
What can you do when you are trying to 
Forget the things that really turn you off?

Contemptible Shrew I miss you I really do
We were combined, intertwined through thick and thin
Why won’t you let me back in?

What can you do when heroes tow the line
What can you do when you are trying to 
Escape the things that really hurt you most?

I never knew that I was lilac blue
And even though I’ve felt so very yellow
I have to say the green grows heavy on me
And I can’t escape
I can’t forget
I can’t escape.

Contemptible Shrew - I love you - I really do
But I don’t always like you
I don’t always understand.

Shrew

Wanted to make something lighter and chiller. Something kinda surface level stuff, just aesthetics that I enjoy. There is couple darker moments but aside that I think it's sun shine, rainbows and joyous ravings!

Sweet Dream Inductor

Artist: Amongst The Pigeons 
Single title: Bring The Stars Closer (feat. Emma King) 
Genre: Electronica, Chill, Balearic beat, Ibiza House
Label: Peace & Feathers 
Length: 3.05 
Release date: 2 July 2021 
Target date: July 2021 

FFO - Groove Armada, Zero 7, Air, Aim, Morcheeba, Chemical Brothers and other chilled electronica acts.

‘Bring the stars closer’ is taken from the recent Amongst The Pigeons album ‘Silence will be assumed as acceptance’ which was released in May 2021.  

The album focused on the need to speak out and challenge and featured nine guest vocalists across the twelve tracks.  One of those guest vocalists is the incredible Hull based rock-pop artist Emma King.

On this single, Emma’s gorgeous voice floats across a chilled Balearic back beat creating a real summery vibe not dissimilar to ‘Star Guitar’ by The Chemical Brothers.

The title is a nod to our continued exploration of Space and the Universe.

The single is released on all digital platforms on Friday 2 July via Peace & Feathers.
