   .. About This Release .......................................
   :                                                           :
   :  "Evacuation is another one of those tasty little CDs     :
   :  that doesn't pretend to be more than it is; it simply    :
   :  aims straight for the pleasure centers and doesn't       :
   :  waver 'til the last track ends... tunes like "Bleeding   :
   :  Hearts" and "Evacuation" are complete in a way that few  :
   :  songs can claim to be -- compact, definitive summations  :
   :  of an established sound...as a high-level tribute to     :
   :  the form, they are sublime..                             :
   :  Spledid Online - 5/18/04                                 :
   :                                                           :
   :  Contrary to their title, The Somnambulants are anything  :
   :  but sleepy. Energetic songs with catchy pop structures   :
   :  intersect with moodily soothing textures to create a     :
   :  unique brand of electronic music.                        :
   :                                                           :
   :  Though they pre-date the first Electroclash festival     :
   :  with their debut release "Fabrication & Productivity"    :
   :  (Clairaudience Collective Recordings, 2000), their       :
   :  single, "Evacuation", will appear on the upcoming        :
   :  "Electroclash 2" compilation (Mogul Electro) due out in  :
   :  Fall 2003 . Beyond the Electroclash sphere, however,     :
   :  the band hopes to prove that electronic bands can        :
   :  achieve longevity through committed artistic integrity.  :
   :  For them, the secret formula is to avoid writing         :
   :  "electronic music," and to write instead great songs     :
   :  that just happen to use electronic instruments.          :
   :                                                           :
   :  The Somnambulants began with Joseph White. Joseph moved  :
   :  to NY in 1996 to attend film school at NYU's Tisch       :
   :  School of the Arts. Throughout the four-year             :
   :  film-intensive program, his focus on sound design and    :
   :  film scoring sharpened his music writing and recording   :
   :  skills. By 2000, Joseph had turned his energy back on    :
   :  music full time, forming The Somnambulants.              :
   :                                                           :
   :  Channing Sargent is the second Somnambulant. She is a    :
   :  performance artist with classic piano training. She      :
   :  controls the synthesizer with zeal, stopping only to     :
   :  dance. Her on-stage presence and strong musicianship     :
   :  are a perfect complement to Joseph's front-man           :
   :  presence. Also ex-Tisch/NYU, she graduated from the      :
   :  Experimental Theater Wing in 2000.                       :
   :                                                           :
   :  That same year, Joseph founded The Clairaudience         :
   :  Collective in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The Clairaudience  :
   :  Collective provides a positive space for like minded     :
   :  bands to grow and mature in the sometimes harsh climate  :
   :  of NYC's music scene. Comprised of The Somnambulants,    :
   :  synth-sweethearts Swiss Dot, and electro-punkers Mommy   :
   :  & Daddy, the Collective has become an incubator for      :
   :  up-and-coming Electroclash bands. The Clairaudience      :
   :  Collective self-released The Somnambulants' first        :
   :  album, "Fabrication and Productivity." The recordings    :
   :  include tracks with vocals from Lorraine Lelis (of       :
   :  Mahogany), who continues to provide vocal tracks for     :
   :  Somnambulant recordings on "Evacuation".                 :
   :                                                           :
   :  Electroclash or not, The Somnambulants will still        :
   :  create music that pushes boundaries as much as it        :
   :  pleases the ears of their listeners. Look for them to    :
   :  rise out of Brooklyn, NY in the coming year.             :
