Sleepthief

On 08.31.09 a recording will be released that will re-define what is considered great electronic or producer-driven music, and will simultaneously raise the bar for those acts wanting to be considered as such. This recording is from the artist Sleepthief and is titled ‘Labyrinthine Heart.’ It’s a bold statement to make. Not just anyone could get away with such bravado in a PR, but we’re talking about the ‘exception,’ the one in a million...

Richard Skelton

Since 2006, UK artist Richard Skelton has been releasing small run documentations of his own musical explorations through his Sustain Release label. These recordings are always exquisitely packaged, in materials and imagery that really invoke the feel of the recordings locked away on the discs.
Place and space play a big factor in Skelton’s creative process, transporting the listener to the environment in which the music was originally recorded.

Stars of the Lid

Stars of the Lid are a band specializing in drone-based ambient music. They list among their influences minimalist and electronic composers such as Arvo Pärt, Zbigniew Preisner, Gavin Bryars, and Henryk Górecki, as well as Talk Talk (both bands have tracks named "Taphead"), post-rock artists Labradford, and ambient innovator Brian Eno. Their music largely consists of beatless soundscapes, composed of droning, effects-treated guitars along with piano, strings, and horns; volume swells and feedback fill the gap of rhythmic instruments, providing dynamic movement within the songs.
