Seven Hours

Lungful

Douglas Dare – Lungful

Amelia Rivas and Christian Pinchbeck don't just sing about feverish, frayed and  fractured romances – in the three years since forming  Elephant, they've been living one.

Their first recordings, recorded in the strung out early mornings after the night before, were delirious and light-headed. Rivas’ stream of conscious lyricism combined with Pinchbeck’s innate melodic nous to create vignettes of delight and wonder.  A debut single followed, 2011’s woozy Ants, followed by the Assembly EP.   But before they had a chance to capitalise on the growing acclaim around them the duo’s relationship broke down, almost to the point of no return.

That seemed to be Elephant’s graveyard.  Yet an unexpected rapprochement in late 2012, and a renewed musical hunger saw Rivas and Pinchbeck reconcile.  The first fruit was this year’s gauzy single Skyscraper, which announced their return in spectacular fashion, with Rivas’ swooping vocals allied to a spectral chorus creating an eerie, lens-flared 3 minute wonder of song.

Now, new release Shapeshifter provides confirmation that Elephant are truly back as a force to be reckoned with. “I flew to the moon to mirror you and I saw the future” sings Rivas, with a raw melancholy and nostalgic longing. A sumptuous missive of love lost and lessons learned, that sparkles with charm, optimism, and the sort of lush swoonsome string arrangements that reach into your chest and wring your heart dry. 

Backed by the sparse and stretched out Snowday, as icily cool as it sounds, full of chiaroscuro contrasts and flickering atmospherics, it’s a release that suggests their debut album is set to be one of the standout albums of 2014.

It’s Love is The Legends' fifth studio album. The record details a recent chapter in the life of Johan Angergård which saw him wrestle with issues of loss, love and identity. At the same time, a new relationship came crashing into his world, bringing with it both infatuation and anxiety.

With his internal life shifting, an abrupt creative streak spurred It’s Love in a matter of months. Not surprisingly, acceptance soon followed, and although no firm answers have yet revealed themselves, Johan’s struggle stopped, to which he says, “I don’t know if this all sounds a bit pessimistic. It shouldn’t. It’s a new start. There’s a lot of hope. There’s love.”

Fink - Sort Of Revolution (single) 
          Digital only release date: July 13 2009 
          
          Fink returns to tantalise your eardrums this Summer with lead single and title track from his brand new album, “Sort of Revolution”. As if the original wasn’t already an effortlessly classy, subtle and moving piece of work, Fink has enlisted label-mate Jason Swinscoe for a rare-as-hen’s-teeth Cinematic Orchestra remix. The single, available as a digital only bundle, also includes a genius spaced-out Dub remix from Sideshow, and yet another perfect piece of songwriting, delivery, and production from Fink in exclusive bonus track “Don’t Look Down”. 
          
          Fin Greenall, aka Fink, is among the more understated of the world's 'singer-songwriters', relying on uncompromising quality of work and an astounding stage presence, rather than major label marketing budgets. Swinscoe, likewise, is more keen on making music than chattering about it in the press. His career has, nevertheless, attracted superlatives from the outset, and includes collaborations with the likes of Fontella Bass and Roots Manuva, the re-soundtracking of Dziga Vertov’s classic “Man With A Movie Camera,” and a sell-out show at the Royal Albert Hall last year. Together they have crafted a miniature epic of love and longing… a velvet revolution indeed.

Fink - Sort Of Revolution (The Cinematic Orchestra Remix)

"Black Lagoon is the lead single from Still Corners 4th album Slow Air.  With clean toned electric guitar, a driving beat, and the smoky crooning of Tessa Murray, Black Lagoon contains the shimmering atmospherics Still Corners are well known for.  The cinematic video that accompanies the track finds the band on a journey from the desert to the ocean in search of a lost Eden. Filmed over a month in California, Arizona and Texas and shot on a small handheld cinema camera, the band travels across America in a white mustang convertible searching and reaching into the unknown."
