Hidden Shoal is excited to announce the availability of CD pre-orders for the new Slow Dancing Society album Laterna Magica. CD pre-orders include an immediate digital download of the album in MP3 or FLAC formats.
Slow Dancing Society’s fifth album Laterna Magica demonstrates another key progression in the Slow Dancing Society discography, which is becoming one of the essential bodies of work in contemporary ambient music. The tracks are underpinned by gorgeous guitar drift and warm synth wash, sparingly propelled by throbbing electronic undercurrents. From the soft-focus exhalation of ‘A Few Moments’, via the gleaming musical universe of recently released single ‘I’ll Leave A Light On’, through to the hypnotic pulse and drifting melancholic piano of finale ‘Tomorrow’s Another Day’, Laterna Magica is a definitive Slow Dancing Society release.
“Like the glow of sunlight filtered through the slowly undulating waves of blue crystalline water, Under The Sodium Lights is less an auditory adventure and more a rich and imaginative musical daydream.” – Delusions of Adequacy on Under The Sodium Lights
“a complexity of sound that allows it to stand out from traditionally ambient music… It is easy to get dissolved in this album, to let yourself fall into meditation as the music plays… an aural delight” – The Silent Ballet on Priest Lake Circa ’88
Laterna Magica is available now for CD pre-order (inc. immediate MP3 or FLAC download). The CD comes as a beautiful 4 panel wallet with stunning artwork by Stuart Medley. Pre-order shipping and official release (inc digital) is set for 18th September. Head to the Hidden Shoal Store for all orders, release details and a free track download.
