Recommended Posts

Hey hey,

Time for the next newsletter. We've just received another load of nice records. We're shipping all preorders in the next 3 to 4 days.

Now available is the OMEGA MASSIF - KARPATIA LP repress (150x ultraclear w/ black and green splatter and 350x ultraclear). The splatter version is almost sold out again. Around 40 copies left. Thanks again for the great interest! You can still download the record in line with all other denovali releases via www.denovali.com/mp3shop

Additionally we've got the 2nd repress of the HIDDEN ORCHESTRA - NIGHT WALKS 2x12''. After a year with concerts in 20 different countries this debut of Hidden Orchestra already became a classic. The press said: “Gripping.” (Clash); “Stunning stuff” 9/10 (IDJ Magazine - Top 10 Debut Albums) "contemporary, atmospheric and accessible" 5 Stars (BBC Music Magazine); “Top!” (The Times). We've repressed 300 copies on black.

Also available now is the second output of HIDDEN ORCHESTRA - a 10'' called FLIGHT. The limited edition 2x10'' includes an extra disc featuring exclusive "no-drums" and "drums-only" versions of “Flight”. It's limited to 300 copies in total and we're today down to around 100. It won't be repressed.

We're currently booking spring tours for THE SAMUEL JACKSON 5 (partly w/ PETRELS), AUN + THISQUIETARMY and BERSARIN QUARTETT + SANKT OTTEN. You can find all available dates on www.denovali.com/booking - Please get in touch if you like to set up a concert.

On Tuesday next week you can listen to the first single of the upcoming BIRDS OF PASSAGE album via www.denovali.com/birdsofpassage - the artwork is already online now.

Of course we also got a lot of new items for the mailorder - including a new Lustmord record, the new Yob album on vinyl and cd, Russian Circles - Empros, Modern Life is War represses, some Kraftwerk vinyl. Etc etc.. A complete list is available further below.

“Stunning stuff” - 9/10 - IDJ MAGAZINE *TOP 10 DEBUT ALBUMS OF 2010*

"contemporary, atmospheric and accessible" - 5 STARS - BBC MUSIC MAGAZINE

“Top!” - THE TIMES

The “Flight” EP, out on 7th November, is the second official single from Edinburgh based quartet Hidden Orchestra, who released their stunning debut album ‘Night Walks' on Denovali Records and Tru Thoughts in September 2010, and have seen their star continue to rise in the intervening year with an ever-growing media and word-of-mouth buzz. Highly in demand as a live act, their hectic touring schedule this year alone has taken in over 20 countries as their incredible music has worked its way into hearts and minds the World over, and this single brings eagerly anticipated new material and remixes.

The quartet are formed around the duelling drum kits, percussion and electronic pads of drummers Tim Lane and Jamie Graham, and completed with the piano and violin of Poppy Ackroyd and the bass and samples of bandleader and composer Joe Acheson. The result is explosive, percussive, and resplendent with layers of intense soundscapes that take audiences on a deep and truly original sonic journey containing elements of jazz, classical, drum'n'bass, rock and hip hop, moulded into a coherent whole.

The lead track on this new EP, “Flight” is the first brand new material to be released since the album came out; “Flight” started out life as part of a live film soundtrack project, and evolved into this intense and transporting piece, which at almost eight minutes long sees composer and bandleader Joe Acheson exploring a dubby avenue, with a strong half-time feel running against a faster double-time context. Dotted rhythms in the kicks and snares and an occasional bass wobble interplay with acoustic basses and acoustic percussion including castanets, metal pipes, snare drums and ride cymbals. The jazz influence that often characterises Hidden Orchestra's work is barely there, giving way to a very strong folk feel. Acheson expands: “This track is the strongest testimony yet to the last eleven years I have been living in Scotland - you can clearly hear the folk influence creeping into various aspects of the melodies, harmonies, and instrumentation.”

Harpist Mary Macmaster features heavily in the track, playing the clarsach - a traditional Scottish wire-strung harp. A legendary figure and a veteran of the live folk scene in Scotland, Mary has performed with Hidden Orchestra a number of times this year in special live shows where they have been able to augment their usual quartet with an extended line-up - including Glastonbury Festival, North Sea Jazz, Edinburgh Jazz Festival and Insider Festival. “Flight” also features the band's two most regular live guest musicians reprising their appearances on ‘Night Walks' - Su-a Lee (cello) and Fraser Fifield (low whistle and soprano sax) - and in addition plays host to a cameo appearance on clarinet from the celebrated Czech producer Tomáš Dvořák (aka Floex, who also created the remix of “Dust” for this release).

The single will be available on beautifully packaged 10” vinyl, care of Denovali Records, featuring “Dust (Floex Remix)” remix as the B-side. It will also be available as a limited edition pressing, including an extra disc featuring exclusive "no-drums" and "drums-only" versions of “Flight”. The unique idea for these alternate versions occurred to Acheson because the drums in Hidden Orchestra are such a feature that they stand up on their own; and conversely, splitting the track in this way also reveals all the layers of orchestration that can occasionally be lost underneath the thickness of the drum textures. The artwork for this single features one of Acheson's favourite works by Norman Ackroyd, who also made the etching used for “Night Walks”.

OMEGA MASSIF – KARPATIA LP (repress)

[image]

This is maybe the most awaited (instrumental) metal record of the year. Founded in 2006, OMEGA MASSIF quickly seized the attention and interest of listeners from several genres (metal to doom to sludge to instrumental postrock) through the years - and that's a result of just 2 records in 5 years: their demo KALT and the first full length GEISTERSTADT. OMEGA MASSIF are a convincing studio and live band. These aspects and the fact that they have a keen sense of sophisticated song structures are maybe the main reasons why OMEGA MASSIF filled bigger venues step by step - while having started with local squat, they have by now played festivals like ROADBURN, HELLFEST, SWINGFEST etc.!

Their new and 2nd album KARPATIA, a result of two years songwriting, again unites the well known calm melodic components with an immense dynamic and dark feeling in the monolithic heavy parts. In contrast to other instrumental bands, OMEGA MASSIF invent their own sound and are able to maintain the tension throughout the whole record without the usage of cheap climax ideas. We could continue to tell you how apocalyptic and intense this record is - but it's maybe better to push the start button and to judge by your own if OMEGA MASSIF created another masterpiece after GEISTERSTADT.
