For fans of… Stealing Sheep, The Beta Band, Super Furry Animals

Did you ever buy a new gadget that was so nifty you wanted to make a song and dance about it?

Well, The Helmholtz Resonators have done exactly that. Built from a Walkman, some "odds and sods" and more than a little ingenuity, the eccentric musician scientists have procured a robot to help with their chores and provide entertainments for the winter evenings. This charming droid has had such an impact that it has inspired their best work to date, a short song simply called Automaton which is set for release on 17/11/14.

Sounding like a cross between Tom Tom Club, Metronomy and the Human League; the mechanical marvel has been entertaining everybody it meets.

Heavily inspired by the ethos behind concept albums, the Helmholtz Resonators have created a repertoire of songs that are as eccentric as their image, touching on influences as diverse as The Residents and The Kinks to LCD Soundsystem and Hieronymous Bosch and picking up support from the likes of XFM’s Eddy Temple Morris, BBC’s Steve Lamacq and Gary Crowley, Frank Skinner’s Absolute Radio Show, Timeout and The Independent.

“Sunshine is probably the best pop song of summer 2014, no debate. It’s the track that defines a season.”
Movies on My Mind

”…simplistic yet evidently obscenely catchy lyrics. There’s more than a hearty dash of Beta Band thrown in to the mix…“-
The Vinyl District

“It’s a feel good, psychedelic dance pop gem with some wonderfully woozy moments. The superbly catchy, Balearic tinged Sunshine is quite heart-warming with its languid, laid back charm.”
I Heart Moosiq

The Helmholtz Resonators are a renegade group of psychedelic time travelling audio scientists who have been playing and writing music together since the turn of the century. They studied acoustic science and the work of Hermann Von Helmholtz, being particularly inspired by his book On the Wires of our Nerves, essential reading for anyone interested in the science of sound and sound synthesis.

Just One More Time...
Let that feeling come back to me.
Just one more time,
If you can hear me...
Let that feeling come back to me.

How 'bout one slow song?
Now just grab someone...
So if your hearts burned too long
to change up your destiny...

Just One More Time...
Let that feeling come back to me.
Oh Just one more time,
If you can hear me...
Let that feeling come back to me.
Or out my mind-

Now the pain's all gone.
And while those days are done--
How I still wish that I wasn't wrong
about how we would leave things.

Just One More Time...
Let that feeling come back to me.
Oh Just one more time,
If you can hear me...
Let that feeling come back to me.
Or out my mind.
