La Mar are a Sydney based, two piece electronic project who’s music hinges on the relationship between singer Dylan Wright, and keyboardist / producer, Andrew Grant.

The duo spent a large part of this year writing and finding the foundation for their music and collecting sounds, such as Grant’s dusty old FenderRhodes that kicks off their debut single, “Anchor.” The mixdown on “Anchor,” was delicately handled by producer Craig Wilson (Flume, New Navy, LDRU, Yahtzel), at the legendary, REC studios.

The EP finishes off with Mazde’s tasteful spin on “Anchor,”
in what sounds less like a remix, and more of an interpretation of sounds. Following “Shifted Thoughts,” Mazde carefully creates a unique track, appealing to only the most cultured of ears.

Seeing through the creative process right to the end, Jack Vanzet aka Thrupence (Future Classic) did the stunning oceanic cover art.

Anchor

All or Nothing

Kind of a "Tongue in Cheek" spoof of "Dueling Banjos", I imagined  a guy playing an an upright piano, in a canoe, going down a whitewater river and coming across a retarded boy on an overhead bridge. They look at each other and then faceoff on dueling pianos.

B $ PRAISE GOD

Did you hear about the girl
Who moves with the stars in her hands
Like a God-given promise
And faith in her land
She lives her life with an open heart
Hope in her eyes
And she stays
And she stays

But she wonders
She wonders
About the people she knows and loves
About the things that she'll never know
She just wonders
She wonders

So keep a light on
A light on
Keep a light on
A light on

Hold onto the hope
Hold onto the faith
Hold onto the rose
Don't let it fade away
Hold onto the grace
Hold onto the gold
The treasure is within her soul

When she dies
May it be in a peaceful place
When her eyes close
May she rise and see heaven's face
May she meet the ones she's known and loved
In the world above
And she stays
And she stays

But she wonders
She wonders
About the people she knows and loves
About the things that she'll never know
She just wonders
She wonders

Faith is the song she sings
I wish you could hear her sing

Oh
She sings
Hallelujah
Oh
She sings
Hallelujah
Oh
She sings
Hallelujah
Oh
She sings
Hallelujah

So keep a light on
A light on
Keep a light on
A light on

Keep A Light On

Your musical journey through the 'Arcanum' EP ends with 'Coda'. A two-parted dance tune, inhering modern urban club influences as well as links to half-forgotten themes of dusted disco. Although this piece holds a story of his own, it marks the luminous ending of something greater we simply named 'Arcanum'.
