Over the last four years, Make Mine Music -- a collective of
musicians and independent label -- has established a name for
itself for its catalogue of beguiling and varied music, from
the wistful nostalgia of July Skies and Epic45 to the ambient
dreamscapes of Yellow6 and Portal.
The next release for the label is the debut album by Innerise,
Western Sky Music. Innerise has been in existence since the
mid-1990s in various incarnations, based around composer and
multi-instrumentalist Tarl Broad-Ashman. Debuting in 2002 on
the split EP with Schengen and Portal, with later tracks
appearing on the Make Mine Music compilation Flow, Innerise
established themselves with a sound uniting elements of pop,
ambient, electronica and dub.
Recorded in 2004 and 2005, Innerise's debut album is long
awaited. Western Sky Music sees Tarl joined on several tracks
by singer Katherine Cobley, who adds her beautiful vocals and
honest, heart-on-sleeve lyrics. If you're after reference
points, imagine a cross between Saint Etienne, The Orb and the
Cocteau Twins and you'd be somewhere close.
The stunning artwork for this release was done by Ben Curzon,
whose credits include Luke Vibert, Venetian Snares and Mu-ziq.
