 Northcape's long-awaited "Captured From Static" full-length is now available. Northcape offers up chilled, deep, and evocative yet upbeat melodic electronica that is best in class. The release can be purchased in CD and high quality digital formats from the SSS storefront and several retailers worldwide. Prepare for driftoff.Northcape Bio Northcape is the ongoing work of self-taught British artist/producer Alastair Brown, who first began releasing music via the internet in (2003). Northcape has been active in the online music community ever since and has gained a considerable following (with over 100,000 plays on Last.fm alone) along with widespread recognition and positive feedback for the quality of his music. Two self-released full-lengths "Letter To Nowhere" (2005) and “Detach” (2007) followed and the most recent “Some Bright Valley” [EP] (2008) was released through the long-running and well-respected netlabel Monotonic (Proem, Tim Koch, General Fuzz, Ilkae, Esem, Sense, ST, et al). Northcape produces fresh, optimistic and evocative electronica that avoids over-complexity and is aimed at expressing ideas in the most natural way possible by recalling environments, landscapes and memory rather than to focus on the technology and techniques used. Northcape is not scared to experiment nor concerned whether the music fits into any particular style or genre, and in the process has developed a clean, distinctive and strongly melodic sound. Northcape Press "This is an album of considerable beauty, an album that enchants and invites the listener to visit spaces of memory and imagination. Northcape has indeed succeeded in producing one of those albums that comes along every once-in-a-while, one which both defines a genre and sets the standard for others to follow. Melodic electronica has a new hero." - Greg Healey (Dandelion Radio) on "Captured From Static" "Brilliant- perfect electronica. If you like Ulrich Schnauss, Jon Hopkins, Global Communication, prepare to become unreasonably happy. This is beautiful sun-filled electronica, that makes you realise how far the genre has come and how further it will go in the hands of an artist like this- the music is so simple and wonderful. It makes me want to hop in my car, pop this on very loud, and drive into the hills. That must make it good right?" - Deepspace on "Detach" | ||||||
