COMING SOON: Snow Ghosts - And The World Was Gone

Snow Ghosts is the collaboration between UK electronic bass producer Throwing Snow & recent Phaeleh collaborator Augustus Ghost. Recently releasing their debut album ‘A Small Murmuration’, they’ve been The Guardian’s ‘New Band of the Day’, Zane Lowe’s ‘Next Hype’, recommended ‘Album of the Week’ by the Mercury Prize and have played a live acoustic session on Dermot O’Leary’s BBC Radio 2 show.

‘And The World Was Gone’ pins a sense of unease to an acoustic guitar riff, cello and Augustus Ghost’s most moving vocal. Remixes come from Roly Porter (one half of bass duo Vex’d), who brings out the track’s darkness, whilst D&B maestro Calibre emphasises the melancholy in its melody. Finally, in-demand Bristol producer Kahn provides the most arresting cover version imaginable.

‘And The World Was Gone’ is out on heavyweight 180g vinyl, cut by mastering engineer of the year Matt Colton, on 26th August. Pre-order the 12” from the Houndstooth store to receive a discount. All vinyl purchases from the Houndstooth store include free WAV downloads of the release, made available on the digital release date, 2nd September.
