ANDREW HEATH \u2013 THE CLOUD MACHINE<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n

After a spring that felt like autumn and a very wet start of summer, we finally had some warm\/hot summer days here in Holland. And I immediately felt the need for some \u2018cooling\u2019 music, music like a refreshing morning breeze on a summer\u2019s day. The Cloud Machine<\/em><\/strong> proved to be exactly what I needed.
Its freshness, by the way, came from the sound of \u2026 rain in the first track. Oh, the irony! <\/p>\n

But it\u2019s not only that particular recording of rain \u2013 it is also the bright way the instruments (mainly piano and guitar) are recorded, how they are embedded in subtle electronics, and also how they merge with the field recordings. The music \u2013 Andrew Heath<\/a><\/em><\/strong> himself calls it \u2018lower case music\u2019 \u2013 has a distinct and immediately recognizable style. And somehow I always imagine a very English landscape with it. <\/p>\n

The music on The Cloud Machine <\/em><\/strong>is intended as \u201ca sound painting of light, radiance and naive joy through the metaphor of clouds and of a gaze drawn to the skies\u201d<\/em>.
It is released in a very small (40) CDr edition on the Whitelabrecs<\/a><\/em> label<\/p>\n
