The Good Weather For An Airstrike project was initially conceived at the beginning of 2009 to help Tom Honey alleviate the issues caused by suffering from tinnitus, which causes a ringing sensation in the ear and can often result in difficulty sleeping. The idea was to create a collection of relaxing sounds which would help induce sleep. Tom has released albums & EP’s through Hibernate Recordings, Sound In Silence, Rural Colours, Bad Panda Records, Audio Gourmet, Sonic Reverie & Hawk Moon Records. His work draws on all of his musical influences and presents itself as a rich tapestry of lulling drones that hints at a diluted form of post-rock.

09. And All Their Faces Wore Blank Expressions 15:14

When The Clyde Floods is a varied, experimental record that draws sonic influences from lots of places whilst still retaining an obvious cohesion. And, whilst Innes' other Bandcamp tags of 'depression' and 'heartbreak' are reflected in the more melancholy sections of the music, there's still hope to be found, peeking through in bursts like the sun through thick cloud -- you'll just need an open mind, a dark sense of humour and your best pair of headphones to hear it. read more...

He has immersed himself completely in a world of delicate symphonic compositions generating near weightless orchestral pieces. Arnalds explores the crossover from classical to pop by mixing chamber strings and piano with discreet electronics which makes him a perfect fit for cinematic music label Erased Tapes. His motivations are clear: 'The classical scene is kind of closed to people who haven't been studying music all their lives. I would like to bring my classical influence to the people who don't usually listen to this kind of music…open people's minds.

Bitcrush - Collapse



Artist: Bitcrush
Album: Collapse
Genre: Ambient, Post-rock
Label: n5MD, Component, Zankyo
Year: 2012
From : Oakland

Tracklist
01. The Weight (Of A Future Mutation) - 10:39
02. To Collapse Into - 12:18
03. To Collapse Out Of - 05:50
04. All At Once It Was Refused - 09:33
05. ...For A Void - 11:06

Bitcrush has always had a knack of making something as intangible as emotion seem somehow within reach, and on Collapse Mike Cadoo has taken this project to a new level and managed to create the most human and powerful record of his career to date. While this is beyond doubt a Bitcrush record and still invokes a feeling of a desperate nostalgic hope like a crack of sunlight through parting clouds, this time the clouds are much blacker and tempestuous, the viewing platform less stable. Bitcrush has changed, adding almost JK Broaderick-esque detuned guitars and fragile yet distressed guitar parts, he weaves these new elements into his work effortlessly and somehow manages to make Collapse feel like a living breathing entity.

As Bitcrush has always been the sleeve on which Cadoo wears his heart, the fact that he puts this stylistic shift down to, as he puts it, "emotionally exhausting events in my life", is hardly a surprise and can be felt in every note. More expressive and emotional than ever - pain, hope, slivers of broken joy - Collapse is not a safe record, but somehow manages to take the emotions that created it and make them yours in a journey you're unlikely to forget.

The Dandelion War - We Were Always Loyal To Lost Causes



Artist: The Dandelion War
Album: We Were Always Loyal To Lost Causes
Genre: Ambient, Post-rock, Indie-sound
Label: Deep Elm Records
Year: 2012
From : Oakland, CA

Tracklist
01. Strange Ghosts
02. Drifters
03. 1848
04. A Different Heave’n
05. Bloom
06. A Mi Alrededor
07. The Devil’s Black Wool
08. The Wanderers and Their Shadows
09. De Humo
10. Stone Castles

"The Dandelion War successfully does the airy, Radiohead meets Sigur Ros thing, though not as long-winded. Like other bands in the genre, dynamics shift between multi-instruments, and strong beats provide a solid backdrop for the melodies. The vocals sometimes give way to the playing, which will keep the band from leaning into Coldplay territory. It sounds like they think that's a good thing." -Oakland Tribune

"Like Explosions (in the Sky), The Dandelion War use shimmering guitars, building drums and crescendos of noise to paint pictures." -Bandsofthebay.com
