   About The Declining Winter


The meanderings of Richard Vincent Adams of Leeds, West Yorkshire. A musical project to keep me occupied whilst my other group is on hiatus and so I can pretend that I'm not just an office worker by trade.

I'm attempting to keep this project environmentally friendly and so the first 7" 'The Future Sound of Hip Hop parts 1 and 2' was housed in 100% recycled packaging. The initial copies came with a bonus CD of remixes by Epic 45, Remote Viewer, Part Timer and Northstation, this has now sold out. A seperate 3" cd of remixes/collaborations came out on Moteer in January and further remixes (including those which appeared on the cd with the earlier single) are available from Mobeer... if you have the password which comes with the Moteer release. Confused? Yes, so am I.

The album 'Goodbye, Minnesota' is out now on Ireland's Rusted Rail records. Again it has recycled sleeves - can you see a pattern emerging? None of these activities has anything to do with popular demand by the way. The album will be appearing on vinyl sometime in 2009 but for god's sake don't hold your breath.

The next Declining Winter record proper is entitled 'Haunt the Upper Hallways' and appears on Home Assembly Music in luxurious 7" AND CD format with the 7" containing three songs and the CD containing the same three songs plus 7 bonus ones. Release date will be June 29th 2009. The first 100 copies will come with a free remix CD. Pre-order details coming soon.

A further mini album - a collaboration with Turkey based dulcimer player Joel Hanson - is almost complete and will be released sometime in 2009.

The Declining Winter live band at the moment consists of R.Vincent Adams, Paul Elam, Gareth S Brown, Sarah Kemp and/or Elaine Reynolds, plus Richard Morris or James Yates, and has become a tight rocking unit. It made its debut on March 20th 2008 at the Packhorse in Leeds (see video below). The band will be playing shows when requested from here on in - take a peek at the gig listings on this here page (or last.fm) to see where they can be caught next.

Oh, and to supplement all the fun of this here MySpace site, you can visit The Declining Winter website or last.fm page for downloads, pictures... and more of that kind of thing. You can also follow us on Twitter if you want but we don't say too much.

Heres a video of 'Haunt the Upper Hallways' (7" with bonus CD on Home Assembly Music due June 29th 2009)



And finally, here's a video of the first ever performance - "Yorkcitythree" live at The Packhorse, Leeds on March 20th 2008.

..

More and More Tiger / Tiger Trap present:

Friday May 8th @ The Common Place, Leeds

THE BALKY MULE (FatCat Records)

Solo alias of Melbourne based multi-instrumentalist Sam Jones, previously found playing with Flying Saucer Attack, Minotaur Shock, Crescent and Third Eye Foundation. A brilliant mix of electronic and acoustic textures, plaintive vocals and eccentric British humour, The Balky Mule has garnered comparisons to people like Hood, Pram, Syd Barrett and FatCat labelmates Songs of Green Pheasant.

http://www.myspace.com/thebalkymule


DOWNDIME

Frantic, moody indie pop in the vein of British Sea Power or Pavement.

http://www.myspace.com/downdime


MODEL WARSHIPS

Michael Waters makes beautiful songs wrenched out with an intensity and bitterness that belies his youth: think Xiu Xiu, Bright Eyes, Spencer Krug.

http://www.myspace.com/micacousticuk

Entry £3 members / £4 non-members, doors 8pm. Tiger Trap will be DJing afterwards into the wee hours.
