Hidden Shoal Recordings, today announced the pre-release of the album, “A Taste Of” by Belgian dream pop outfit, Colour Kane.

Featuring a collaboration with Robin Guthrie of Cocteau Twins
fame, “A Taste Of” is laden with honey coated, magisterial guitars,
sweeping electronics and lush vocals. The title track encapsulates the
album with its exquisite interplaying guitars ringing out against the
ethereal voice of Marjan Snykers. As with the rest of the album, this
song finds that unique emotive space where sonic majesty and melodic
craftsmanship paint the sky with a rich and immersive melancholy.- Press Release Excerpt.

“A Taste Of” is now available as a pre-release exclusively from the HSR Store.
The album will see official release in April 2007 where it will be
available from all good digital music stores such as Itunes, eMusic,
Sony Connect and Rhapsody. Listen to the album in full here.

 

Dream popsters Colour Kane were recently chosen by the high profile Belgian zine, Cutting Edge as a Myspace Feature Artist. You can read the article here, but it may be difficult for those who do not speak Flemish. We tried to translate it, but the results were less than readable! 

Hidden Shoal Recordings, today (Jan 30th, 07) announced the release of the Glorybox Remix of “Too Late”, the first single taken from the forthcoming album by the Belgian dream pop outfit, Colour Kane.



“Fredrik Johansson of Glorybox has managed to distill the lush guitar
based sound of Colour Kane into a stripped back brooding nocturnal
slice of melancholic electronica. Its beat-driven orchestral movements
and driving bass, layered with the gorgeous vocals of Marjan Snykers
create a luscious slice of downbeat atmospheric pop.- Press Release Excerpt
