Indie Rock/Alternative song with some Pop and Lofi elements. Layered guitars, bouncy synths and driving drums lead into a very satisfying, upbeat and energetic chorus.

Running with a Cape

‘Cute Funeral” is an unkempt instrumental amalgam of Electronic Rock, Left-field IDM and good old fashion Blues Rock.  There’s hints of Ratatat, The Black Keys, and Jon Spencer reflected throughout the song, but its own voice loudly clamors through it’s rhythmic mix of funk bass, bar room pianos, dixieland brass and fuzz drenched guitars.

Cute Funeral

'Forget What I Said’ is a dynamic post rock track alternately featuring melancholic delayed guitars and solemn organs mixed with swelling amp feedback and screaming vintage 70s keyboards.  The song is both quiet and introspective and loud and intense.  Both sides of the song share the same sad feelings of regret.

The song is a journey that's both sad and introspective and loud and emotional at different times.

It's Over

Instrumental alt-rock song with heavy funk, soul & psychedelic influences.  The drums drive and propel the song forward while the Rhodes organ takes a more tranquil path to give the song it's juxtaposed groove and vibe.  The layered guitars provide the tonality, tension and soundscape that weave in and out of the rhythm and melodies alike.

Den of the Empress

Somnia

Amidst the lush Blue Ridge Mountains of Virginia, The Sleeping Cliffs unleash powerful soundscapes with amplifier feedback and pulsing bass drums. The music is a layered mosaic of fuzz drenched guitars, bombastic percussion, and vintage synths, melodically engineered as a turbine of soulful, rhythmic, electro-rock.  Todd Glidewell, the multi-instrumentalist behind the project, describes himself as “genre-fluid”, drawing from rock, indietronica, funk, soul, psychedelia, post-rock, and alternative. Wearing those diverse influences like a technicolor cape, his tracks consistently showcase a distinctive analog/electronic groove that defines The Sleeping Cliffs’ signature sound.
