Remember me saying something about a split EP series? You may have to dig deep here, it was quite a while ago. Well unfortunately one of the things that got pushed aside when we made our transatlantic move last Summer was the Vacant Passages series. Well, times they are a-changin’ and while nobody that knows me would accuse me of being anything short of frantically busy… When it’s time, it’s time. Preorder for VP01 should be in the store within the next few days. Well, keep your nose to the ground and your ear to the grindstone.
To help you get fired up for the coming release of Soft Focus, we’re posting a preview of the second track from the forthcoming album. It’s called “Sorry I Never Wrote You Back”.
Oppressed by the Line - Sorry I Never Wrote You Back
The wait is over, the follow up to The Cause of the Colour is now available for pre-order in the Drifting Falling store. Soft Focus, is overall richer in texture and more thoroughly realized than it’s predecessor. It’s 10 tracks of mournful melodies and sonic bliss… You can preview Condensation, the first track, below.
In honor of the addition of the first Oppressed by the Line disc “The Cause of the Colour” to the Drifting Falling store, we present the song that electronic musician Antony Ryan (Isan) told us made him go pick up his guitar.
I’ve been looking at the release schedule, and grinning for the last half hour. We have some truly stunning releases coming your way in the coming months, but just as I avoid walking under ladders, I also try not unmasque layed plans too early for fear of tempting the fates who thus far have been very kind to us. That said, the next few releases include, the debut full length from Oppressed by the Line entitled “Soft Focus”, the debut full length from Matt Bartram of Air Formation called “Arundel”, and a stunning new ep from Televise entitled “Sometimes Splendid Confusion”.
Due to unfortunate and unforeseen scheduling conflicts, Epic45 will now be included on Volume 2 of Vacant Passages. Volume 1 roster now includes Mole Harness, Oppressed by the Line, My Kappa Roots and The Air Alone.
Music and artwork is finished for releases by Oppressed by the Line, My Kappa Roots, and Cheer. Needless to say, we’re extremely excited. Album release dates are forthcoming.
Confirmed for Volume 1 of the Vacant Passages series are tracks from the brilliant Epic45, Mole Harness and Oppressed by the Line. Full tracklist and release date to be announced.
