Where We Are

Taken from new album 'Maps' https://messagetobears.bandcamp.com/album/maps&#13;
&#13;
<i>'Maps is the third LP from multi-instrumentalist Jerome Alexander, the man behind Message to Bears. &#13;
&#13;
Following on from the success of Folding Leaves, Jerome has created something that encapsulates the folksy ambience of previous releases whilst adding an electronic dimension. Building layer upon layer, songs evolve with a fragile intensity. Vocal melodies are draped over string and guitar arrangements and end up soaring over them, at the same time lending a hook instantly recognisable as Message To Bears and blending harmoniously with the arrangement. &#13;
&#13;
The overall result of Maps is something that is both startling and familiar. You are drawn in, given a map if you will, and invited on a musical journey that nods to Message to Bears' past but also leads to the future.'</i>&#13;

The Lull Of The Void

The Eye

the album "melanchole" by the band "salvia palth"

melanchole

i was all over her

(Everything was taken away)

Feeling sorry for your last misfortune 
Drawing roses from our dream come true

Kill my heart with unforgiving silence
See the stars for everything we grew

(And just like that, everything was taken away)

Taken away, taken away, taken away
Everything was taken away

Taken away, taken away, away
Everything was taken away

Taken away, taken away, away
Everything was taken away

Taken away, taken away
Away, away, from me

(But it’s gonna be okay)

PRESS RELEASE
-----------------
London / Leeds-based four-piece Cloud Studies return with their first cover version, a reimagining of ‘Last Night I Fell Again’ by 90s shoegaze pioneers Moose.

Where Moose’s original was loose, restless and pushing the sonic boundaries of the emerging shoegaze sound, Cloud Studies channel that same experimental energy through their atmospheric wall of sound. The result is both a tribute and a transformation, offering a dreamy, uplifting and immersive soundscape that works to expand the song’s emotional reach.

Featuring Kirstin Isolde Lavender in the lead vocal role, her performance adds warmth and vulnerability, threading melody through the dense layers of guitars and reverbs that have become a trademark of the Cloud Studies sound. 

Recorded between London and Leeds, the track captures the band at their most confident and cohesive to date, unafraid to reinterpret a cult classic while asserting their own identity. 
Since forming in 2024, the band have earned attention for their widescreen approach to dream-pop and shoegaze, blending lush guitars, introspective lyricism, and textural experimentation across their acclaimed early singles ‘Ghosts,’ ‘Cloud Cartography’ and ‘Dreams About.’

This recording was commissioned by the Afterglow Echoplex shoegaze podcast in Portland, Oregon, USA and is to be featured amongst a series of tributes to classic songs from the original shoegaze era. 

Cloud Studies are: Adam Cresswell, Vocals, Bass, Programming; Martin J Langthorne, Guitars; Kirstin Isolde Lavender, Vocals; Adrian Taylor, Guitars.

Recorded at Old Chapel (Leeds) and Bellasonic Sounds (London). Written by Kevin McKillop and Russell Yates. Produced by Adam Cresswell. Mastered by Toby Campen Mastering.
