█ █
█ I imagine that many of you have interest in what █
█ happens to pop music these days, although most █
█ of it disappointing and/or not anything like as █
█ good as it used to be. ôNo time like the pastö █
█ is how a gentleman would describe the situation. █
█ But the truth is that this record is BeaumontÆs █
█ most accomplished collection of songs to date █
█ and a pinnacle record indeed. Melancholy hasn't █
█ sounded so utterly perfect and gripping in a █
█ very very long time. Some artists reach a █
█ crossroads where they sell their soul in █
█ exchange for success or inspiration. Fortunately █
█ Paul Stewart will never be in that position as █
█ he always finds his way to beautiful, bouyant █
█ and thoughtful pop with no hunger for glory. He █
█ is eternally prepared to write catchy hooks and █
█ interesting chord structures and release each █
█ record under a different mood or concept but █
█ always reflecting a sophisticated pop █
█ sensibility. He is a genius. After ôThis is █
█ Beaumontö (2000) LP, ôDiscotheque a la carteö █
█ (2001) and ôTiaraö (2003) Siesta releases the █
█ third full length from this British pop group █
█ born from the ashes of celebrated Sarah records █
█ combo Blueboy and SiestaÆs axis-combo Arabesque. █
█ This record is highly recommended for improving █
█ your life, your day and more importantly your █
█ record collection. Beaumont has achieved █
█ cult-status in the pop spheres and recognition █
█ thanks to loyal fans. They were even invited to █
█ write music for the reputed New York based █
█ women's designer accessory company Kate Spade. █
█ Beaumont managed to capture the sparkle and kick █
█ of Kate Spade in an unexpected and vibrant █
█ style. Now, Beaumont make competent and pleasant █
█ indie-folk with hints of emotional country / █
█ pastoral counter-points for fans of Beth Orton, █
█ Yann Tiersen, Trash Can Sinatras, Mojave 3, █
█ Fantastic Something, Innocence Mission, Swan █
█ Dive, Nico, Birdie, Gentle Waves, Magnet, Grant █
█ Lee Buffalo, Lilac Time, Sleepy Jackson, Hidden █
█ Cameras or, Nick Drake. In this record there are █
█ lullabies, pop hymns and ballads with discrete █
█ guitars, sensitive arrangements and occasional █
█ synths that confer on the songs a mysterious █
█ gravity. Beautiful and sad, this album is █
█ carrying an emotive load of 11 songs that make █
█ you think of barley scented summers and harvest █
█ autumn nights (ôBlind spotö), caught between █
█ balmy breezes and chills to the air, Songs like █
█ ôNext to nothingö or ôAboveö will make you cry, █
█ if you have a real pop sensibility. Probably the █
█ best songs Mr Stewart has ever composed. ôWe █
█ moved away slightly from the traditional 'pop' █
█ format of "verse, chorus, verse, chorus, end". █
█ With 'Above' we used a continual stream of █
█ chords which is broken up with a middle section █
█ to create a darker feel. I also decided to use █
█ no electric guitar effects at all on the album █
█ favouring the natural sound of classical and █
█ acoustic guitarö says Paul. Cath Close's female █
█ vocals exhibits immaculate and textural █
█ sophistication unusual for the pop genre, and █
█ her mature sense of craft make us think of great █
█ all time singers as Dusty Springfield, Elis █
█ Regina, Rita Lee, Ella Fitzgerald, Patsy Cline, █
█ Dionne Warwick, Kate Bush, Deborah Harry, Wanda █
█ Jackson or Sarah Cracknell. Paul has a █
█ professional muse and stunning partner in Cath █
█ Close. Every song gets a perfect treatment from █
█ her, she's deep in the heart of the lyric (i.e. █
█ ôHeartfeltö, ôThe other wayö, ôVintageö). Some █
█ songs will still remind fans of the Blueboy and █
█ Arabesque landmark (ôFinding youöor ôCloserö) █
█ but it is clear that there is a stylistic move █
█ forward to abandon the limits of abstract synths █
█ and jazzy pop. ôNothing like the pastö contains █
█ sinuous pedal steels, epic and poignant █
█ atmospheres, ultimately perfect pop songs that █
█ will warm your soul and at the end you become █
█ absorbed and in love with the songs. Beaumont █
█ deserve much more success and regard than has █
█ yet been dedicated to them. The production by █
█ Paul Stewart and Julian Tardo is impeccable, █
█ natural and feather-light, perfect for a █
█ pastoral pop record with such emotional █
█ landscapes. This record is deeply moving and █
█ radiant and a redemptive work of art. As Cath █
█ says ôPop music has become more intelligent or █
█ at least more experimental.ö █
