Relax

recorded 06.2011
from the nonexistent album "Summer Skulls"

etokle - Life Raft (Blue Waves)

"'I Fell in Love' is a lush and emotive tune, one whose airy melodies and icy structure mirrors the group's "Scandinavian surroundings of native forests and snow," from which Gidge is said to gather much of its inspiration. Spanning over six minutes, the track moves at a patient pace, gradually adding melodies and new layers of miniature percussion to the song's somber bounce as it builds towards its climax."
- Glenn Jackson, XLR8R

Autumn Bells

I Fell In Love

Gidge - I Fell In Love

"From the horn sounding across the track's start, backed up by warm static of a playing record, the song unravels slowly, piece-by-piece, a contemplative work that blends instrumentality with electronic production in serene splendor."
- Colin Tewksbury,  Earmilk

Andy Beta - MTV:

Quiet Village, the duo of Joel Martin and Matt Edwards (who hails from Radio Slave), set Ferry’s “Me Oh My” amid dense jungle foliage. While their collection of edits released a few years ago on K7, Silent Movie, found them in a playful mode, their remix work since then has truly taken on the exotic spirit of their moniker. Like their drastic reconfiguring of Allez Allez’s “African Queen” or Bubble Club’s “The Goddess,” Martin and Edwards strip and slow everything down, past the slink and forced pan-culturalism of most downtempo fare, into something verging on the ritualistic. They take it to tantric lengths of ten minutes or more, fully allowing that slow heart of darkness throb of it all to overtake the space and cast its spell.

A massive hand drum figure thunders unhurriedly. Slowly, other sonic components crawl to life around it. Flutes trill like tropical birds, a crash cymbal sizzles to life, a synthesized drone that stays in the shadows but can still be felt. “Me Oh My” is a study in restraint, and each time it pressurizes to the point that release must surely come, Quiet Village recedes back into the fronds for fifteen transportive minutes. Bryan Ferry’s telltale coo echoes in the distance and then suddenly that seductive whisper is near your ears, not on a distant plateau, saying: “Can’t you hear my beating heart go in and out of time.”
