Welcome to the Plum Flower Embroidery main page
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!
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!
Quantum Soul Machine takes us into
the realms of the dreamworld. Etheral
soundscapes of fantasy and sci fi
resound transporting us through the
universe and beyond. Instrumental
tracks such as QSM, Stick World, God
Computer and Talking Hat all conjure
up fantastical imagery taking us
through the industrial landscape of a
future that could be. Vocal stand out
tracks such as Cannibal God, bring
about an immense darkness and
gripping quality with haunting vocals
that will leave you wondering what
became of Ursula and her God. Who
needs a spaceship or time machine
when a CD or MP3 will do?!
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....
