▓███ The Gentleman Losers - The Gentleman Losers ███▓
▓███ Label: Bⁿro ███▓

▓███ The product of two Finnish siblings (Samu and Ville ███▓
▓███ Kuukka), The Gentleman Losers have crafted an eponymous ███▓
▓███ debut LP which straddles the fine line between twilight ███▓
▓███ beauty and dusky threat - bringing a sound which ███▓
▓███ references the likes of Vincent Gallo, Deaf Center and ███▓
▓███ William Basinski. Released through the new-born Bⁿro ███▓
▓███ imprint (new sublabel of City Centre Offices for acoustic ███▓
▓███ and band driven music), The Gentleman Losers have ███▓
▓███ succeeded in creating an aural document that revels in ███▓
▓███ juxtaposition without resorting to leaden contrast; ███▓
▓███ appearing at once strikingly familiar and gloriously ███▓
▓███ new. ███▓
▓███ ███▓
▓███ Having been making music together since their early ███▓
▓███ teens, Samu and Ville revel in a sound that evokes ███▓
▓███ tarnished grandeur - where decay and starry-eyed ███▓
▓███ innocence rub shoulders with dusty strings and ███▓
▓███ syrup-drenched instrumentation. They have made the kind ███▓
▓███ of record that acts as an adjectivemagnet from even the ███▓
▓███ most austere sources, The Gentleman Losers are dapper ███▓
▓███ as you like. ███▓
▓███ ███▓
▓███ Opening with the creased prologue of 'An Empire of ███▓
▓███ Coins', The Gentleman Losers sound much as you wish ███▓
▓███ Boards of Canada did - taking a water-bled guitar part ███▓
▓███ then increment-tally coating it in a queasy blend of ███▓
▓███ crackling aural lint. From here we are coaxed into the ███▓
▓███ beatific path of 'Gold Dust Afternoon', a piece of ███▓
▓███ music which proved to be a turning point in the LP's ███▓
▓███ gestation. "For us, the key track to this album was ███▓
▓███ "Gold Dust Afternoon" explains Samu "It was the one ███▓
▓███ that opened the way for the rest of the music. Also ███▓
▓███ 'Laureline' was important - after those tracks, the ███▓
▓███ rest of the music started to come out. Still, it took ███▓
▓███ nine months of la-bour..." ███▓
▓███ ███▓
▓███ Recorded at night in a reputedly haunted house that ███▓
▓███ comprises part of Turku's medieval quarter, The ███▓
▓███ Gentleman Losers are the latest in a starburst of ███▓
▓███ talent emerging from Finland - where alongside Fonal ███▓
▓███ and SΣhk÷, the reindeer munching nation has come to the ███▓
▓███ attention of music aficio-nados the world over. ███▓
▓███ Describing their music as "one part 60s movie ███▓
▓███ soundtracks, one part wooden electronica, all recorded ███▓
▓███ through a 50s Telefunken mixer we found abandoned in a ███▓
▓███ basement" The Gentleman Losers manage to distil their ███▓
▓███ debut album down into a pithy diktat; "we wanted to ███▓
▓███ make music from a past that hasn't happened yet..." ███▓
▓███ ███▓
▓███ ███▓
▓███ Enjoy! ███▓
