Hidden Shoal Recordings is proud to announce the release of the new single ‘Endlessly’ by neo-classical/minimal ambient artist Antonymes, along with its accompanying video, taken from the forthcoming album The Licence To Interpret Dreams.
In its opening moments, ‘Endlessly’ patiently weaves traces of nature with unearthly, oscillating tones, creating a delicate, pensive atmosphere. Its apex comes halfway through as the gentle tones give way to a strident, emotive piano theme. The accompanying video is a continuation of Antonymes’ stunning explorations into the still and moving image. Hypnotic, minimal and expertly crafted, it is the perfect visual echo of the music.
The Licence To Interpret Dreams is an album of resonant beauty, it is as expansive as the wilds of North Wales from which it came, yet as delicate and intimate as a loved one’s breath upon your skin. Each song deploys a modest array of instruments and textures, giving them ample space to breathe and glow.
“sound sketches of enormous, if fragile, beauty” – The Silent Ballet on Beauty Becomes the Enemy of the Future
“… ‘Beauty Becomes The Enemy Of The Future’ is without doubt an exceptional release that manages to capture everything that is so special about experimental music, and is up there with the likes of Skelton for the message that the music conveys through both sound and design.” – Fluid Radio on Beauty Becomes the Enemy of the Future
‘Endlessly’ is available for free download from the HSR Store, and the accompanying video can be streamed on Hidden Shoal’s channel at Vimeo and YouTube. The Licence To Interpret Dreams is released on 21 April, distributed via n5Mailorder, and will be available for pre-order from 1 April.
