About Takemeseriouslyshoes

My name is Pete, I live in Leeds, I play guitar and bass in Vessels and in Transpangaean. This page is for music that I have made aside from those bands....

If you want to leave me a message I'll reply to it much faster if you do it through my website because I don't always have time to check all these pages. Just go to the site and click the contact link in the left hand menu....

I made an EP - the songs that play on the player are on it - plus two more. For £3.50 I'll post you one if you live in the UK - it might cost me a bit more to send one to foreign lands - send me a message and I'll find out how much - or you can buy one at one of my gigs - or you can message me and tell you why I should send it to you for free, and I might just......

The Unfortunate Incident - @ The Plug 18/7	Mar 16 2009 11:04 PM Hello, We are playing the lovely Cardigan Arms on the 21st of March. Being foreigners from Sheffield, it would be grand if you could pop in and see us and bring a few other Leedsies with you if you are free. Here are a few nice things people have said about us. Have a listen on our page and see if you like what we are up to "AN AMAZING LIVE ACT, I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THEM AGAIN" (Sandman Magazine) "AN IMPRESSIVE SET FROM A BAND WITH A KNACK FOR WRITING CATCHY SONGS AND DELIVERING THEM LIVE AS WELL AS IN THE STUDIO" (Sandman Magazine) "PROMISING SONG WRITERS" (Tom Robinson, BBC Radio 6) "THESE DAYS I FIND THRASH AND POWER POP A BIT REPETITIVE, BUT THIS WAS REMINISCENT OF MORRISSEY WHILE STILL BEING PERSONAL, I HEAR THE POSSIBILITY OF A GOOD FUTURE. IT SOUNDS TO ME LIKE YOU COULD SUPRISE US ALL ONE DAY". (Paul Gambaccini, BBC Radio 6) Anyway, it would be nice to see you there. All The Best The Unfortunate Incident

Forest of Sound	Mar 5 2009 1:17 PM Damo Suzuki is a legend! Best known for his stint as the legendary Krautrock pioneers Can as their singer in the 70s, Damo now tours the world to hook up with the best of local musicians to produce stunning sets of improvised music. We cannot stress how good this will be enough - you’ve never experienced anything like a Damo Suzuki show before, even if you’ve been to a Damo Suzuki show before! This extra special show will see Damo backed by the collective brilliance that is Quack Quack and Napoleon IIIrd. Quack Quack simply the best live band Forest of Sound have ever seen - so much energy, so much musical invention, so much skill... well, it's almost obscene. One man empassioned alt-pop legend with his reel-to-reel tape player, Napoleon IIIrd is a man of skewed melodies, bouncing beats and a big bucket of inventiveness... and is simply ace. Friday: 13/3/2009 @ The Brudenell, Leeds. Doors 7.30pm. A Forest of Sound presentation. £6 adv / £7 on the door. Tickets available at Jumbo Records, Crash Records, and We Got Tickets.
Forest of Sound	Feb 24 2009 1:45 PM Charlie Parr is from the same Duluth music scene that spawned the likes of Low and Haley Bonar, and his music delves deep into the back roads of American folk music, there’s hints of Robert Johnson, Nick Drake and Will Oldham in his playing, and a true from the heart power and clarity that is simply stunning. This guy is the real thing, and you can hear it in every note he plays, which would also explain why the people at the superb End of the Road festival ask him back every single year! Neil McSweeney plays beautifully considered and perfectly restrained music that will delight fans of Low, Adrian Crowley, Nina Nastasia, Mark Kozelek, and Jason Molina. Deftly fingerpicked folk loveliness from a local favourite - Michael Rossiter perfectly executes traditional folk as well as his own material, sings from his heart and gets the perfect sound from his guitar. Sunday: 1/3/2009 @ The Packhorse, Leeds. Doors 8pm. A Forest of Sound presentation in association. £5 adv / £6 on the door. Tickets available at Jumbo Records, Crash Records, and We Got Tickets.
Batdan	Feb 23 2009 12:25 PM Mate have I told you that Road Song is one of the greatest songs ever written? If I haven't I sure our friend Mr Higgs has! scoops The Bat

The Unfortunate Incident - @ The Plug 18/7	Nov 22 2008 2:10 AM Hello, we are foreigners from Sheffield that will be playing Leeds on the 12th of December at the Cardigan Arms. It would be grand if you could come and make noise for us, as Sheffield folk are far too frightend to come to a big city like leeds. Cheers The Unfortunate Incident

Forest of Sound	Oct 27 2008 1:45 PM Hauschka Having studied classical piano for ten years, Dusseldorf-based pianist/composer Volker Bertelmann's work as Hauschka is based upon a playful exploration of the possibilities of the 'prepared' piano. His resulting tracks are vivid, unconventional pieces made in a spirit of playful research-enthusiasm, which he's taken around the world - in the USA with Múm, in Japan with Colleen, and a debut, sold-out London show with Max Richter. Hauschka's music is a thing of beauty - intertwined melodies and rythyms that flit between gorgeously lush and complex and stunning minimalism. Gareth S. Brown With influences as diverse as Eastern European folk music, funeral marches and jewellery boxes, Gareth creates gorgeous work of layered beauty with nods towards Philip Glass, Terry Riley and Michael Nyman as well as latter day travellers such as Max Richter, Yann Tiersen and Aphex Twin. Saturday: 8/11/2008 @ The Holy Trinity Church, Leeds. Doors 8.30pm. A Forest of Sound presentation. £5 adv / £7 on the door. Tickets available at Jumbo, Crash & We Got Tickets.

Cibelle Website: www. cibelle. net Singer, composer, poet, video artist: Cibelle is chameleon-like in her ability to change her music's subtle directions. Merging samba sounds of the fifties and sixties with bossa nova, traditional Brazilian down-tempo and modern electronic trickery, her blend of acoustic guitars, percussion, electric bass, analog keyboards and digital mathematics is definitely mellow but never bland. And with such a uber sexy crystal-like voice , sung in equal parts Portuguese as English, are we really that surprised?
Forest of Sound	Aug 20 2008 12:34 PM This is going to be amazing! 2 days of fantastic music on a beautiful site in the Lake District overlooking the southern shores of Lake Windermere, with a selection of excellent bands as chosen by us & the lovely people at Fell Foot Wood.

Silverlode	Aug 4 2008 9:56 AM You are invited to watch The Difference Between Love and Hades, the new video by Silverlode and Edel Doherty - a tale of love, tragedy and the seasons.

Forest of Sound	Jul 21 2008 3:45 PM For this Forest of Sound we’re getting together with our good friends at Misplaced Music to celebrate the release of Gareth S. Brown’s new album, The Gallows on Misplaced Music (order here). Bracken makes simply stunning music - walls of ambient sound, dark dub bass and atmospheres, destroyed and re-claimed found sound, beats that range from over-powering to perfectly understated. Gareth S. Brown creates gorgeous work of layered beauty with nods towards Philip Glass, Terry Riley and Michael Nyman as well as latter day travellers such as Max Richter, Yann Tiersen and Aphex Twin. Sketches for Albinos makes a sound that manages to be both truly heartfelt and organic, but also encompassing the majestic glacial soundscapes that would make the likes of Tim Hecker or Fennesz proud. The Declining Winter are a new musical project, led by Richard Adams, the co-founder of Domino Records group Hood, and is influenced by the music of Low, The Durutti Column, Songs of Green Pheasant and more. They have recently toured with ambient legends, Stars of the Lid. Live they’re a wonderful, beautiful, pastoral experience. Friday: 1/8/2008 @ The Packhorse, Leeds. Doors 7.30pm. £5 on the door. Join the last fm fun here.
Forest of Sound	Jun 30 2008 12:48 PM Efterklang are astounding on record - a fusion of electronics, sea song, rock and ambience that envelops you slowly and beautifully. Live, they take this core of beauty and project it with such force in to the audience that it takes on a whole new life - every emotion amplified, every note laden with passion. If you caught them last time, you know you can't miss it again. If you didn't... well, you know what you have to do... Bracken , led by Chris Adams (co-founder of Hood), make simply stunning music - walls of ambient sound, dark dub bass and atmospheres, destroyed and re-claimed found sound, all topped with vocals & lyrics from a man who knows his own heart. James Yates’s solo show is something to behold - organic electronics, perfect drums, spot on percussion and mad-as-a-hatter inventiveness. Thursday: 10/07/2008 @ The Brudenell Social Club, Leeds. Doors 7.30pm. A Forest of Sound presentation in association with The Brudenell Social Club. £7 adv / £9 on the door. Tickets available at Jumbo Records, Crash Records, and Seetickets.
Gary Stewart	Jun 6 2008 12:06 PM Pete-new song on myspace-"Tables, Trees and Tripods"-if you could have a listen that'd be a boon...
Forest of Sound	May 29 2008 7:25 PM Koen Holtkamp is no stranger to producing beautiful music. Expect layers of warm organic noise and found sound combine to make pieces that are both gorgeously minimalistic and endlessly deep. He's making the trip over from New York to celebrate the launch of his new album on Type records, and you'd be a fool to miss him! Gorgeously organic music that washes over you and through you - the best of all ambient music understands the importance of holding back, of understatement, of beauty - Pausal achieve this, and more. Stunning stuff for a night of pure sonic bliss. Forest of Sound's favourite one man laptop genius, randomNumber, comes back to regale us with his excellent and deeply inventive brand of electronica. There's a reason that he's so energetic in his performance - his music is brilliant. Simple. As. A Forest of Sound presentation. It’ll be £5 on the door, and doors are at 8pm.

The Resplendents	May 27 2008 3:39 PM We've got a new recording online! Check it out why don't ya!
Gary Stewart	May 27 2008 10:52 AM Booner...new song up on myspace...it'd be lovely if you had a listen and if you have any feedback to give, that'd be appreciated you fine songsmith... G Funk x

Tatu Carreta	Apr 27 2008 10:25 PM
Forest of Sound	Apr 25 2008 12:49 PM Easily one of the most important bands of our times (and we don't say that lightly), Stars of the Lid are the highpoint of the ambient genre. Their influence on the music that really matters over the last decade has been huge, and we're incredibly honoured to be hosting them again in Leeds. This gig will be very very different, and very very special. Stars of the Lid have excelled at designing subtle, minimalist epics which sound like they're being played on a single multifaceted organic instrument. A wise man once described SOTL as "divine classical drones without the tedious intrusion of drums, or vocals. " The Declining Winter is the musical project of Richard Vincent Adams of Leeds UK, the co-founder of the continuing group Hood and a full time stricken office worker. What does it sound like? Richard says "cassette tapes spilling out of the glovebox of a 1970's Datsun Sunny somewhere in the north of England, captured on Super 8 film". He's not far off. Live he is joined by a few more people to bring the beautiful pastoral feel to life. Wonderful stuff. A Forest of Sound presentation. Tickets are £10 and are available from We Got Tickets and Jumbo Records. It’ll be £12 on the doors, and doors are at 8pm. Join the Last FM fun here.
The Polished Style of Mr. Han	Mar 18 2008 1:37 PM Thanks for the add Pete - hope you get a chance to listen to our stuff (it's Nat, by the way!). Hope all's well dude.
Forest of Sound	Mar 17 2008 2:08 PM Golden Diskó Ship combines a mass of instruments and found objects (guitars, viola, glockenspiel, sticky tape, compact disc cases, toys…) together with perfectly crafted laptop electronica to form a world of beautiful, original and individual music - “…dreamy, experimental folk electronica that sounds like walking on the beach with the sun in your eyes." The Declining Winter is the musical project of Richard Vincent Adams of Leeds UK, the co-founder of the continuing group Hood and a full time stricken office worker. What does it sound like? Richard says "cassette tapes spilling out of the glovebox of a 1970's Datsun Sunny somewhere in the north of England, captured on Super 8 film". He's not far off. Live he is joined by a few more people to bring the beautiful pastoral feel to life. Wonderful stuff. Hands and Fingers makes minimally gorgeous cerebral music. He mixes samples, acoustic guitars, glockenspiel and ambient atmospheres with drum breaks that have been described as "Tortoise having a fight with Four Tet in the dark, with John Bonham trying to split them up". It's ace. Very ace. A Forest of Sound presentation. It’s £4 on the door, doors are 8pm. Join the Last FM fun here.
