    └────────┘

     Comprised of acclaimed illustrator Pete Fowler and Jon Tye, the cosmic and
     oceanography-influenced sounds of the Seahawks were first heard on the 2010
     album "Ocean Trippin". They lent their trippy, yacht rock and hazy beach
     pop vibes to several remixes which included artists such as the Horrors and
     Tim Burgess. They created their own record label, Ocean Moon, in 2011 and
     released several limited-edition cassette and vinyl long-players. In 2014,
     they released their official second album, "Paradise Freaks", which
     featured vocals from the likes of Maria Minerva, Indra Dunis, and Burgess.

     Seahawks now return with their deepest album to date. A masterful blend of
     Berlin-School electronics and post ECM New Age fusion. Finis Africae meets
     Harold Budd downtown. "Escape Hatch" is the fourth studio album by
     Seahawks, recorded over the last 18 months and drawing inspiration from
     Innovative Communications Berlin School electronics, ECM and Windham Hill
     releases by the likes of Mark Isham, Jan Garbarek and Interior and the New
     Age synth sounds of Iasos, Deuter and William Aura. The album opens with
     sheets of soft white noise, which give way to Budd like treated piano and
     fretless bass before super saturated saxophone tones and rippling sequences
     cascade over the listener like a summer downpour.

     Seahawks trademark tropical vibes continue throughout the album but there's
     a constantly changing panorama of moods and tones, from the deeply emotive
     "Missed" with its widescreen synth and sax interplay that recall Vangelis'
     Blade Runner soundtrack to the epic scope of "White Horses" with it's
     almost Popul Vuh like mantric outro and "Starways" it's distorted flugel
     horn like a ghost from Talk Talk's "Spirit Of Eden".

     At the very end of the album there's another twist. A cover of the obscure
     Balearic hit "Valparaiso" by Paula Moore, with a Nassau groove, surprise
     guest vocal and a twinkle in its eye, it provides a suitably eclectic yet
     ethereal ending. Once again Seahawks have created a world to get lost in,
     an "Escape Hatch" - if you need it, come get it, here it is.
