New My Majestic Star Album in Production
My Majestic Star’s new album “Too Late, The Day” is currently in production and will be completed within the next four months for release early 2007. The album will contain ten tracks and will continue the process of exploring mood and emotion through music. The process, as ever, is not restricted to one singular theme or expression, and the music is allowed to grow and metamorphose of its own volition.
“It’ll pick up where Ideas left off, lots of lush guitars and ambient sounds, with a few keyboards and the odd strange vocal thrown in as well. I’ve been playing with samples and some other weird sounds. There are some longer, more explorative tracks but also a couple of pop numbers. It’s not finished yet, though, so it might end up to be country rock by the time I’m done with it.” My Majestic Star a.k.a Chris Mason.
Toby Richardson Single Released
Ex Mustang guitarist, Toby Richardson, has released his first single with Hidden Shoal Recordings, “It Makes the Air Sound Better”. The track is taken from a forthcoming e.p. due early next month. Like the best outcome of a head on collision between Edwin Collins and Polvo, Toby takes us on an unbridalled ride to the heart of rocks goodness. I believe. I truly believe. Listen here .

Wayne Harriss to Release Aerospace Album
“Aerospace” album to be released 1st May, 2006. Album and 1st Single, “Fairweather and the Plimsol Line” available now .
born from a relationship breakup and its chaos, post overseas travel, aerospace is a textural, introspective journey. it is an album that one aurally emerses in. the whole album was an unplanned montage of musical pieces. it explores the simplicity of rich, repetitive instrumental refrains and moods, and layers them with emotive, melodic vocal lines. it is ambience without being ambient. it is an album of places and spaces.
