Sigur Ros, Boards of Canada, Aphex Twin, Mogwai, Mum, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Explosions in the Sky, M83, Battles, Tool, Orbital etc.
Sounds Like
Post - rock bands like Mogwai and Explosions in the Sky, mixed with the more electronic influences of Warp artists. Its starting to get rather heavy in places, but there are still the twinkly floaty bits, don’t ye worry
This Myspace site is a secondary "satellite" site to the main Beaches of the Proud Website (www.beachesoftheproud.com). I will update the songs etc here, and messages are checked regularly, so if you prefer to use myspace for your dealings then it shall be facilitated. However for all downloads, videos, news, FAQ/Blog, lyrics etc., go to the main website.
In the meantime, enjoy the music, download some more if you like, come to a few gigs and be good.
Enjoy.
Dave
Words by various mags/fanzines about Beaches:
"As soaring and celestial as Boards of Canada playing on a balloon ride to Atlantis" - METRO
"You can hear the heart and
passion in the recording, it has a life that most electronica lacks. If folk
noir and antifolk have an instrumental counterpart this is it." - FATEA
"With [Webster's] multi-layered approach, he takes you from crashing, crushing crescendos to subtle, sensitive serenity - music for the mind, music for the moment... a mighty fine outing that shows guts, dedication and innovation" - TOXIC PETE
"This is a highly impressive EP. It's steeped in complexities, excellent song writing but most of all displays a level of humanity that is so often missing from electronic acts. 10/10" - TASTY FANZINE
"The most important element of this EP is that Beaches have kept on their toes, changing things around and avoiding formula-songs to make each of the five tracks appealing in its own right" - THE MAG
"Among the more contemporary and obvious influences like Boards of Canada or Mogwai, you can hear echoes of Durutti Column, at least to these ears. Not only is this refreshing but like Vini Reilly all those years ago in the milieu of punk it is at times inspiring work." - BAD ROBOT
