"Field of Reeds" ist ein dunkles, ehrliches und experimentelles Orchesterwerk, das die Liebe der Band zu Bach, Britten und Stephen Sondheim widerspiegelt. Es markiert eine klangliche Abweichung für die Band und stellt eine weitere kompromisslose Veränderung einer Band dar, die ihresgleichen sucht.

"Field of Reeds" wurde in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Dirigenten André de Ridder arrangiert und wird begleitet vom Basso profundo Adrian Peacock, dem renommierten britischen Jazztrompeter Henry Lowther, dem niederländischen zeitgenössischen Komponisten Michel van der Aa, dem schwedischen Soundtrack-Arrangeur Hans Ek und der portugiesischen Jazzsängerin Elisa Rodrigues. Zur Feier des 10-jährigen Jubiläums enthält diese Ausgabe eine geätzte Seite auf schwarzem Doppelvinyl.

Die ikonischen Pixies haben während ihrer ersten Ära
den Weg für den Alt-Rock geebnet, während sie nach
ihrer Wiedervereinigung im Jahr 2004 raffiniertere dunkle
Künste entwickelt haben - eine Rückkehr, bei der sie den
drei Top-10-Alben ihres ersten Phase drei weitere in
Großbritannien hinzufügen konnten. Die Pixies sind so
heiß wie nie zuvor und veröffentlichen am 30. September
ihr achtes Studioalbum 'Doggerel' über BMG. Doggerel ist
ein ausgereiftes, aber dennoch emotionales Album mit
schaurigem Folk, Ballroom-Pop und brutalem Rock.

The iconic Pixies forged an influential path for alt-rock during their first era, while their post 2004 reunion has seen them alchemize more sophisticated dark arts - a return which has them add another three UK Top 10 albums to the three they achieved on their first run. Now as fired up as ever before, Pixies will release their eighth studio album ‘Doggerel’ on September 30th via BMG, including lead single ‘There’s a Moon On’.
‘Doggerel’ is a mature yet visceral record of gruesome folk, ballroom pop and brutal rock, haunted by the ghosts of affairs and indulgences, driven wild by cosmic forces and envisioning digital afterlives where no God has provided one. And all the while, right there on the news, another distant storm approaches.

“Our first ever show in the UK was the opening slot at Brixton Academy so this is just totally emblematic of the support that has grown overseas we are ever grateful for. It’s still the greatest show we have ever played and we will never forget that night. See you all soon! Stay safe.” DMA’S
On March 6th, 2020 a sold-out audience filled the O2 Academy Brixton’s cavernous space from wall-to-wall. The band played the biggest headline show of their career to date half a planet away from home, yet the show conjured the atmosphere of an intimate homecoming celebration.
The O2 Academy Brixton show was immediately hailed as one of the highlights of the band’s career so far, and it has taken on whole new significance given the events that have followed. For many fans it was their final show before live music events were halted.
From early favourites ‘In The Air’ and ‘Lay Down’ to new material such as ‘Silver’ and ‘Life Is A Game Of Changing’ from ‘THE GLOW’ The show is documented in the ‘Live at Brixton’ album, which will be released almost a year to the day later on March 5th. ‘Live at Brixton’ will be released on a striking smoke-effect pink/orange limited edition double vinyl. Its design was inspired by a flare that was set off during the show. The album offers a chance to reminiscence on the life-affirming power of live shows, and also an inspiring reminder of what we’re all looking forward to returning to.

A gifted animator, writer, performer and producer, he has already seen support from The Sunday Times’ Breaking Act, Dork Magazine, BBC Radio 1’s Huw Stephens and Jack Saunders, BBC Introducing and Radio X.

Inspired by contemporaries like James Blake, Tom Misch and Rex Orange County, George’s music is as innovative as it is feel good, and as unique as his backstory. As one of eight homeschooled siblings raised by parents whose professions included being a collage artist and a honey farmer respectively, he grew up in a fruitful environment that encouraged his artistic side.

In his own words, his music is organic, wholegrain and good for your gut. It’s all these elements that come together to form the quirky world of George Moir, providing a pathway for him to become one of Britain’s most intriguing and hardworking artists

* The one piece of connective tissue throughout the film, besides the subject itself, is the film's score, from Los Angeles electronic minimalist outfit The Acid. Throughout a harrowing parade of images and fleeting moments of whimsy, the droning, pulsating music underneath brings an alternating sense of dread and power.' - Indie Wire
* This is an ambient electronic soundtrack to the award-winning film 'The Bomb'. * Recently The Acid performed live at the Nobel
Peace Prize ceremonies in celebration of ICAN (International Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament) winning the prestigious award this year.
* Confirmed appearance at Sydney Festival in January 2018 with further dates to be announced and further screenings at film festivals across the world.
