Jack is the lead singer and songwriter for the band Cosmic Lightshow. However, recently he has begun to focus on creating dream-like landscapes from his bedroom in Wiltshire.

Listen in and join a journey through shimmering landscapes, mirrored skylines and collapsing star systems over 6 meticulously crafted tracks. Many of them having been practised live and tweaked for months before finally being committed to recording. The immersive soundscapes become even more impressive when viewing the minimal equipment used to make them.

“Inspired by the washed out dream pop of Cocteau Twins and Slowdive, Sunspire is the solo project of Jack Jazrawy-Brown, combining layers of guitar, synthesiser and vocals to create multi-textured soundscapes.”

Lyrics:
Hands reached out
You were all I could see
Running between the trees
We fell through the leaves

Wind shakes the sky
The curtain is undone
Lying in the woods
Spinning round and round

The winter air fell
Darkness set in deep
Slipping from my arms
You fell through the leaves

Ice froze the stars
Darkness broke apart
New life bloomed
Where I lived before

Through the leaves is the second single from Archie Sagers’ debut album. Influenced by the driving bass lines of Peter Hook (Joy Division and New Order) and the guitar work of Robert Smith (The Cure), the title track provides a post-punk energy which drives the song forward. With an accompanying music video, filmed in isolation, composed of psychedelic visuals of the Wiltshire countryside.

Through the Leaves Music Video:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCwGjHF7VwA&feature=youtu.be

The B-Side, Nothing at All, displays the opposite feeling; with one Archie’s most relaxed and warm songs to date. Grant Gillingham, star of the labels roster with his debut album under the name Baltimore at an Angle, provides his vocals with their signature sentiment. A striking music video has also been created by Archie for this song. Contrasting bright washed out visuals with stark black and white imagery of his surrounding area in Wiltshire. Showing brightness and warmth can be found anywhere in these challenging times.

“Through the Leaves is the second single off of Archie Sager’s upcoming album. His new album of material promises to be his most fully formed and painstakingly crafted music to date and is as much infected with catchy riffs and melodies as it is with emotional moments, drawing from experiences over the last few years.”

Lyrics:
Bright light hits the paper
I wish for Friday later
Cuz nothing is happening now
Cuz nothing is happening now

Neon drenched by moonlight
We couldn’t get out tonight
It’s totally wrong
It’s totally wrong
And after all it meant

Nothing at all

Will you look in the mirror
Will you take a chance forever
And something is wrong
I’m feeling worn out
Maybe I can express motivation now

Show some semblance of self-doubt
And tell I made it out, of all the shouts
Because, after all it meant

Nothing at all

Lyrics:

I’m floating miles above
The weightless space sinks down and
My thoughts between my eyes shift
An empty year with no new sound

Staring up past the walls
A guiding light flickers by
I’m floating, floating miles above
I’m floating, floating, floating, floating

The twisting seas and stretching hills
Winding paths that reach and fill
My mind with its thoughts of you
Couldn’t hold on I was slipping through

Standing up with the waves behind
Crashing down I lose my sight
I’m floating through the summer months
I’m floating, floating miles above

I lost my way
I can’t go back, not for a day
I’m floating floating endlessly
My time will stretch infinitely

I lost my way
I can’t go back, not for a day
I’m lost lost in the world
I’m floating floating, floating, floating

Come now the night travels slowly
Can’t sleep with your sword in your hand

I can see this was meant to be
Across the world and I’m finally free

Finally Free is the third and final single from Archie Sager’s debut album. It represents the largest sound out of the three tracks and describes the feeling of floating aimlessly through life, but with a hint of purpose escalating towards the end of the track. The music video gives the track new meaning, with stock footage from the Apollo launches overlaid on top of each other to create a retro, celestial atmosphere.

“His new album of material promises to be his most fully formed and painstakingly crafted music to date and is as much infected with catchy riffs and melodies as it is with emotional moments, drawing from experiences over the last few years”

“In addition to playing bass in the 4-piece Cosmic Lightshow, Archie is about to release his debut album, following his excellent debut EP” – WhiteLight WhiteHeat

Lyrics:

Evenings merge together, sitting in a circle talking
All alone with you, wool on my eyes, I can’t see through
Standing there, on the road, can’t leave home, but I can leave you
I’m moving fast, I’m flying, across the world and I can’t stop now

Oh, and the stars will fall
Crushing, the dusk in my soul
I couldn’t wait another hour for the sun to rise
We were sitting on the green of the park by your house

The sun will rise slow, peaking, above the clouds we can’t look down
My eyes leap, I see, the dawn affecting all but me
The time has come, where I leave, all the thoughts changing me
Blue screen wakes, my soul, the morning where I still felt whole

By Your House is the B-side of Archie Sagers’ third new single from his debut album. The music video features videos taken of the band he plays bass in “Cosmic Lightshow” with random practice sessions and clips of the group taken over the past few years. The track forms an air of nostalgia, which is enhanced by the visuals of the group which will have to disband this year as they are all moving away from each-other.

As part of our collaboration with Swedish Yellow Step Records, we are publishing the two releases on the label as limited edition cassettes.

Adam is better known for playing bass in Swedish indie rock band “Hater” but is debut album under the name Agacy, shows his skills stretch endlessly across 11 tracks (with a new bonus track included.) It winds its way between indie rock and pop music with a dreamy sentiment kept throughout. Yet, the album still retains dance-able moments with hints of ABBA sprinkled in.

“The Space Between Our Lips” is a ten track collection of emotional and solid post-punk inspired pop. All songs are recorded and mixed in a home studio and they are mastered by Joakim Lindberg at Studio Sickan. The music is often based on simple synth pads and coloured by echoing rock guitars and straight-forward drum loops.” – Adam

Taking influence from bands such as: The Cure, DIIV, Joy Division and The Chameleons. Archie Sager’s debut album reflects on his life so far, combining Dream Pop and Shoegaze with Indie hooks and slowing down for more Ambient sections inspired by Eno.

This album is about the period between childhood and adulthood. Questioning yourself, meeting new people and finding a purpose all impose looming challenges. Whether it’s the fear of leaving “I Don’t Wanna Leave Home” the feeling of being stuck without a purpose “Finally Free” and “Stuck in the Void” or finding a guiding hand “I Found You.” The songs also pause on moments of peace “Beneath the Surface” and “Cherry Blossom” where the worries of the world don’t seem to matter. Archie Sagers’ debut album is about accepting change around you and enjoying experiences for what they are. I hope you can all welcome the steady march of time and experience a “Happy New Year”

Three singles from the album have been previously released (Beneath the Surface, Through the Leaves and Finally Free) with the second single being picked up by the spotify editorial team.

This album feels like a culmination of my life so far. Its filled my days during lockdown and is incredibly important to me.

Thank you all for a wonderful year (despite the pretty bad year the world has given us) – I’m extremely excited about the future of the label

“combines the driving bass lines of Peter Hook with the chilling guitar work of Robert Smith to provide plenty of post-punk energy, pulsating rhythms, and thought-provoking DIY psychedelic visuals” – WhiteLight WhiteHeat

Finally Free – “A blanket of synths trails this lovely adventure, ascending crisp cymbals and steady drum progressions beckoning groovy, bass line fixtures. Featuring a muffled voice lethargic and beaten through an infinite space of reverberation.” – Anti: Music Review

Lyrics:

You’re stuck in my head
Stuck on my heart
I wanna go, get out of here
I’d run away,I’d run away

Cause you make me feel like
I could be driving you all night
And I found your lips in the street lights
I wanna be there with you

Up in the clouds
High as a kite
We never sleep, we never tried
when you’re with me, I wanna stay here with you

Cause you make me feel like
I could be driving you all night
And I found your lips in the street lights
I wanna be there with you

Oh baby, take me to the feeling
I’ll be your sinner, in secret
When the lights go out
Oh baby, every single minute
I’ll be your hero, I’m winning
Run away with me

Over the weekend
We could turn the world to gold

Oh baby, take me to the feeling
I’ll be your sinner, in secret
When the lights go out
Oh baby, every single minute
I’ll be your hero, I’m winning
Run away with me
