Australian guitarist Scott Von Ryper (The Black Ryder / Jesus & Mary Chain) to release debut album16/8/2021 Australian singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, recording engineer, and producer Scott Von Ryper is already known for being a founding member of the Australian duo The Black Ryder, and a touring member of the iconic Scottish group The Jesus and Mary Chain. Now he is set to release his debut solo album “Dream State Treasure” in October 2021 via tran-si-ent. The first track from the album, ‘The Devil’s Son’ – is available now, listen HERE. Von Ryper says:- “This track wouldn’t exist without the assistance of a dream. I simply awoke with a clear understanding of how to reproduce an existing song that I was struggling with. What I awoke with, in my mind, was a much slower, more soulful song, and played on the piano, not guitar It then became the overall essence of the album. Sometimes there are milestone songs that are integral to the feel of the whole, and this became the essence of the entire record to me. I honestly think it was the track that made me fully realize that I now had the album I wanted to make - I now had a north star for everything .” ‘Dream State Treasure’ was primarily recorded and mixed in Von Ryper’s home studio between 2018 – 2020. He utilized the break from touring, and the isolation of 2020 to explore sonic themes that he had experimented with early in his career when still recording on a 4-track. Now producing them on a much grander scale, he played most of the instruments, and recorded, produced and mixed the majority of the record himself, with additional input from Los Angeles engineer Norm Block, who also played drums on the record. On finishing the album, Von Ryper said:- “I knew that if I didn’t finish it in 2020 after being given the gift of so much time, that I would never do it. Telling people that you’re still working on your solo record year-after-year for a few years has a healthy sense of shame to it”, adding “and shame is a great motivator.” ‘Dream State Treasure’ will be released in October 2021 on vinyl, and digitally via all major music services. Von Ryper will be touring Europe in November with The Jesus And Mary Chain. Amber Arcades, the alias of Annelotte De Graaf, today shares a brand new track entitled “Goodnight Europe”, which is available now via Heavenly Recordings. This is the first music since the Dutch-born musician released her critically debut album Fading Lines in 2016 followed by the Cannonball EP last June. The track is available to stream and share via Spotify HERE. Annelotte said the following about the track: "I guess about half of it is me actually being worried about the current state of the Union. The other half is me kind of messing around with, and making fun of, this archetype of the tiresome existentialist academic in me." Also shared today is a short film directed by Elliott Arndt (http://www.elliottarndt.com/) starring Annelotte, which hints at upcoming news of a second album. This video is part 1 of 3 and features Amber Arcades’ new single, “Goodnight Europe”. Director Elliott Arndt says of the film: "A lot of the themes Annelotte wrote about for her record struck very close to home. What I found especially poignant in her lyrics is how it’s mostly through a study of herself and a nonchalant look outside her window that Annelotte makes us get a sense of the political turmoil that’s affecting her. In that respect, I was interested in trying to represent this sense of “banality” in a young adult couple in 2018, who are not only the fruit of a vibrant European Union, but also perhaps the ones most directly affected by its dismantling. I wanted to depict a static, homesick, glitchy romance. And here it is, trying all it can to grow against, amongst and beyond the constricting geographical barriers surrounding it.” Watch and share the short film HERE. Amber Arcades will also be performing live in the UK and Europe this summer with a London show at Omeara on June 7th 2018.
