Such Great Heights (Raindrops)
As we step one more day closer to the weekend, we’re excited to bring you a top-notch collection of impressive tunes to help carry you through the rest of your week, starting first with this impressive art-pop piece from Newcastle upon Tyne-based Tessera Skies.
Fusing together collective backgrounds in speech, sound, science, and classical and jazz music, this up-and-coming act should hit the radars of music nerds across the blogosphere, calling on fond associations of Sigur Ros, Guillemots and Wild Beasts. “Such Great Heights (Raindrops)” showcases their arftful articulation of musical abilities, as it seamlessly pulls together elements of ambient, pop, and orchestral music.
The slow-building, vast, and dramatic soundscape is an all-to-easy way for listeners to get lost, illustrating an other-worldly experience with understated atmospheric elements, a playful guitar riff, and memorable lyrics from lead singer Mark Broughton. We’re pretty sure you’ll agree after a just one listen through.
This song will be released on October 16th through North Base Records, in conjunction with Amazing Label Services. Even better, they’re playing on October 14th with Little Comets to celebrate 10 years of the 02 Academy, in Newcastle. If you’re in the area, we highly recommend you check them out.
