Hypnotizing beats slowly build themselves up until they lead to a sea of sound that absorbs you at full tilt.

Welsh duo Face + Heel, consisting of Luke Taylor and Sinead McMillan, started in 2012 and are finally about to release a new atmospheric album ‘Our Prince’s Quarry’, set to drop 15th April 2016.
“Some of the instrument choices and structures are there to reflect what I was listening to growing up in the 90s in West Wales. It’s both in love with the place and has a sense of resentment at how remote and marginal it is and how every street has a memory of growing up; good or bad.”

The album opens with ‘Pier Video’, an ode to an art house video shop in the town, in which punching kick drum percussion, guitar riffs, plucking violins, distorted piano chords and autoharps are layered expertly to create an unmistakably analogue feel. “Some of the parts on the track were actually recorded onto a rental video from there that I never returned when I left.” tells Luke. The full video was filmed and directed by Face+Heel themselves. You can stream and buy the single here.
