Take me back to the moon...

Let's call this future garage? There's a piano, syncopated rhythms, beat-skipping kick drums and spaced out vocal samples.
Lunova Labs (USA) made this release purposefully for the Silenced netlabel. It was inspired by a philosophical movement, called transcendentalism, which developed in the 19th century. Among the transcendentalists' core beliefs was the inherent goodness of both man and nature. Transcendentalists believed that society and its institutions - particularly organized religion and political parties - ultimately corrupted the purity of the individual. They had faith that man is at his best when truly "self-reliant" and independent. Each song is titled off of a piece of work written by some of the leading figures of the movement.
The album breaths spirituality and mystery. I dare you to hit the repeat button. You'll find yourself back on the moon.

Great start for Great skies

The new album got picked up right away on several international blog spots!
A few quotes:
"Wow! I’ll say that again. Wow! Very nice piece indeed!"
"Great Skies has had some strong releases this year" :)
"If you like downtempo spiced with some nice beats, you should definitely check this release out."
"A blissful world of lush soundscapes and graceful downtempo, which he pairs with just the right amount of UK post-everything sensibilities."
"The Ghosts Follow Us is my jam. I love it!"
"Thanks for the free download, I love all your stuff!"
"Nothing warms up my ego-based understanding of a song than a mood setting speech."

Many thanks to the following blogs: dingus, deepgoa, the sound they make, mapzzz, netlabelism

I'm so high

This London based producer made me high on melodies. Matthew Wells aka "Great Skies" is only 20 years old and already reinvented the wheel. We've all been there, lost in a landscape of down-tempo beverages. This time however, the ghosts follow us, while we drift through a repetitive environment fueled by spicy beats.
It's as easy and catchy as it is complex and subtle. I'd like it to be played in clubs, on the road and in my living room. Keep an eye on the horizon as we watch out for Great Skies.
