| The little Sugar Rat scurries along a collection of psychoactive tracks, nibbling at the brain, delving deeper into the consciousness and all without the help of chemical substances! From the laid back country quality of Out TV Luv to the toyful play on words in Serious Zero, moving to the futuristic haunting quality of Apveex11 and x12 and finally onto the joyous beauty of Hail Bright Ophelia, Plum Flower Embroidery once again proves that it is virtually impossible to classify his music into any one genre. Is it Trance? Psychedelic? Rock? Ambient? Folk? Who knows? And that’s just as it should be.... |
| Recorded on ‘The Island’ in 2008. With tracks freshly squeezed from the tears of elves, Island Nation offers a plethora of magical delights. Acoustic Guitars, Ukeles, maracas, harmonicas abound all blending effortlessly with various samples, korgs and enough odd sounds to have you scratching your head and wondering ‘where the heck does that come from?! Relax, delve in deep and enjoy, the elves will be pleased! |
| Not for the faint hearted nor humourless! Sunday Night IC gather and create spontaneous, freeform music. This somehow develops into coherent music that resembles something akin to what a modern day progressive psychedelic rock jazz fest might sound like. Just come on in, lay back on the grass, kick off your shoes and cast all sensibilities aside. They also have a rather nice horn… |

| The White and The Plum combine their insanely creative talents to create a unique sound that oozes blues, country, haunting melodies and a good ole dash of humour to boot. The music transforms us to a place where we find the unusual and usual blending together to make some senseless sense and wonderful vibes! Fom the enchanting kazoo duet on Pitch That Man, the oozing sensuality on White Nicotine, the haunting instrumentalism of Late of the Stars through to the sheer madness of Santa Vs White Plum has something for everyone. If you like your plum's white then come and take a bite out of their world. |
| Hours of Odin brings together a combination of the light and dark that Plum does so well. Odin presents a number of tracks from the early Plum Flower fruit basket with a few fresher plums popped in. Here we see the mixture of instrumental and vocal performances that creates the atmosphere and vivid imagery Plum Flower does so well. The searching frankness and honesty presented in Kisses shows his voice at its' finest, whilst instrumental tracks such as the Blurr of Man, Cold Drum and Playing on a Dry Lake show Plum at his most experimental and the haunting beauty of SI seems to bring alive the music creating fairytale imagery. The final fruit, Hellocopter, brings with it an appreciation for the element of creative humour within music that should never be lost! |

Knives bursts forth with tales of legend
and myth. Love, fear, sadness and
happiness are abound with contrasts
of light and dark ever present. Winter
Queen brings a laid back approach
with vocals oozing out like treacle
being poured over a snowy revine,
whilst emotions of sadness and pique
are stirred in the eerie and beautiful
Swimmer. The Ambassodor creeps up
behind us with a stirring and haunting
piano piece before we are brought
back into the light with Serpentine, a
breezy acoustic track bringing
memories of being kissed by a gentle
breeze whilst laying back in the
summer sun. So come closer, the
knives are being sharpened, just for
you....
