Happy New Year > Audiobulb 2010

Firstly a warmly delivered HAPPY NEW YEAR to you all!

2010 is looking to be a very interesting year for Audiobulb. We start the year with the release of the beautiful Milinal album - Honey Meridian. It is a sublime piece of work by Val who is a Russian sailor by trade and we hope you will support the artist by checking it out.

2010 will also see Audiobulb heading (as always) in new exploratory directions. With new music emerging from the abstract pop of :Papercutz to the exploratory indie of The Hole Punch Generation.

Thank you as always for your support - it means so much to us that listeners support the music rather than downloading the inferior pirate material. Those sites have their own mission of greed drawing in vast revenues from advertising and product placement on the backs of the hard work of in dependant artists and labels like our own.

Birmingham Sound Matter

Birmingham Sound Matter - CD & Digital Download

Francisco Lopez has long been considered a great master of abstract electronic music. His studies of noise, silence and the fabric of recorded sound have been a major presence in the realm of electroacoustic music over the past ten years or so. In this instance Lopez collaborated with a host of regional sound artists, collecting field recordings from around the city, shaping them into streams of decontextualised noise that are typical of Lopez's more challenging brand of microsound.

==========
This album is a classic example of delicate micro-ambient beauty. When I play the album - it gives me a feeling of calm as the melodies and tiny sonic details capture my imagination. Here is a preview - try it for yourself!


+ Across The Rooftops - MP3 Preview

Set in an acoustic environment suggesting rarefied light, shimmering details and a micro-cosmos of activity. The Echo Garden showpieces the latest development in Jimmy’s beautiful aesthetic presence. He excels in the manipulation of tiny grains of audio, processed and arranged into a serene micro-ambience.

There is no doubt Jimmy is raw talent and we are very pleased to be working with him. To find out more about Jimmy visit the release page and read the interview.
