Return to Center Sneak Preview
The word is out: Samuel Hällkvist is about to return with a new album! On June 4th 2013, the whole thing will be available for purchase and download at the usual places, but already today you can have a sneak preview here at BoogiePost Recordings.
New release: Variety of Loud
We’re proud to present a new release from Samuel Hällkvist: Variety of Loud. The album is released as CD and downloads, and can be streamed in full from the release page. Then go by the CD, or download it from stores like 7digital and iTunes,
And what about the music? We’ll give you a hint, in Samuel’s own words: “When I composed the music for the album, the guiding words for me were ‘asymmetrical dance music’. I wanted to lose control and trust what the other musicians could bring to the table. The result was something I didn’t expect.”
Soon to come: Variety of Loud
A new upcoming release, Samuel Hällkvist’s Variety of Loud is to be released on the 4th of June: An all-star album featuring Pat Mastelotto, Pete Drungle, Mai Ueda and Stefan Pasborg. In Sid Smith‘s words:
There’s a wealth of intricate detail within the album; icy twang-bar reveries; dextrous country-style plucking; trance-like beats that percolate through the entire body of the album; joyous, blissed-out swirls of kaleidoscopic keyboards; wordless vocals drifting between undulating ripples of guitar, fizzing electronica and dreamy chords; intense metallic-edged riffs and explosive salvos of chaotic percussion.
Already today, you can watch the video for Urban Champion on the BoogieTube. Enjoy!
Pat & Sam – Greatest Hits
The weird music guitarmanship of Samuel Hällkvist (Samuel Hällkvist Center, Television Pickup) has at last found a rhytmic counterpart in the drumming of Pat Mastelotto (King Crimson, Mr Mister). Their Greatest Hits single is now available as a handy streaming 2-track single, here on BoogiePost Recordings. Enjoy!
