Sleep Whale: Little Brite
Curators of folk instrumentals will want to tune into Sleep Whale. They have a six song EP coming out on July 14th called Little Brite. They write acoustic driven melodies, mix in the emotive effect of strings, hand percussion when needed and process the recordings, adding electronic noises and ambient flares.
“For guitarist/cellist Joel North and violinist/sequence programmer Bruce Blay, the melding of traditional live acoustic sounds of violin, cello, and guitar with vanguard electronic processing is the most natural thing in the world. Woven throughout the infectious melodies of violin, cello, and guitar you’ll find music boxes, shortwave radios, tape machines, field recordings, and much more.”
