London producer Deptford Goth impresses on electro dream-pop debut Life After Defo that’s filled with emotive lyrics and solid production.
Daniel Woolhouse's gorgeous, long-awaited debut LP as Deptford Goth , Life After Defo, finally arrives tomorrow (or today, if you're reading this while in the UK), and with it comes this abstract gossamer clip for album standout "Feel Real." Directed by Woolhouse and Aneil Karia . [ via ] The post video: Deptford Goth — "Feel Real" appeared first on Soft Signal .
Now that I’ve become acquainted with Mozart’s Sister, I don’t think I’ll be saying goodbye anytime soon. Merok Records, 2013 8.0 / 10 Self-describing her music as “bedroom paranoia”, Caila Thompson-Hannant, aka Mozart’s...
And so we once more approach the time of the season for the music industry more or less in its entirety to engulf Austin, Texas whole. The inbox is slowly, though surely beginning to bulge with the traditional litany of SXShoWcase invitations that only serve to further exacerbate the innate irritation at our inevitable absence, and Twitter's aflutter with various bands' frenzied attempts to finalise their thirteenth show of an early March afternoon. I've always wondered what it must be like to be an Austin resident when the delirium steamrolls its way into town, though the latest single from [...]
New single 'Things In My Head' from Austin, Texas band Pure X ! The trio are sounding far clearer than their distorted, introverted debut record 'Pleasure' from 2011. Infact, it sounds like early 70s John Lennon, doped up to the eyeballs, but hey, it works! Pure X release their second album 'Crawling Up The Stairs' on May 14 through Merok Records (EU) and Acephale Records (USA). Pure X - 'Things In My Head' [...]
Performing under the name Mozart's Sister , one-woman electro pop artist Caitla Thompson-Hannet is at once self-effacing and awkwardly sincere. Hailing from Montreal, Hannet formerly played with chamber rock outfit Shapes And Sizes , before branching out to pursue her solo material in 2011. Similar in delivery to the likes of vocal powerhouse Jenny Wilson and Pat Benatar , Thompson-Hannet needs no convincing that "love is a battlefield." Her self-recorded and released debut EP [...]
Will 2013 be a breakthrough hit for Montreal's Mozart's Sister ? For anyone not familiar, it is the solo project of Caila Thompson-Hannant who used to play with Shapes + Sizes and Think About Life. This time she is on her own and will drop her first EP "Hello" February 25th on Merok Records . Kudos to Caila to be on this label. This is you will hear from this. Mixing electronic loops and samples, R&B grooves and a soaring soul sister voice, the sound is unique and shows a woman who [...]
Montreal's latest reason to get excited about music, Mozart's Sister , is releasing a brand new EP on esteemed indie label Merok Records (the outfit behind Crystal Castles, Titus Andronicus, The Klaxons and more) next month. The Hello EP will be out February 26th and shows exactly why solo artist Caila Thompson-Hannant is tipped to be one of the breakthru artists of 2013. Having stunned audiences at 2012's CMJ Festival in New York, making "the most memorable impression" for her synth-filled, shimmering electro-pop, [...]
Préparez vous, la vidéo que vous vous apprêtez à regarder est probablement l'une des plus belles choses qu'il vous sera donné de voir aujourd'hui. Il s'agit d'un de ces stand-out tracks comme nos amis bloggeurs anglais disent souvent - un de ces morceaux qui au premier abord a des airs de rien du tout mais qui vous touche en plein cœur instantanément. Dès la première minute, vous vous dites « ok, ce morceau va être sur mon Ipod pendant les 10 prochains mois ». Deptford Goth est en fait le projet de Daniel Woolhouse, [...]
Skulking around the alley ways of SE8 London, is a 28 year old producer known as the Deptford Goth. A melancholy figure, whose music contains fragments of macabre undertones against vast graceful beats. Describing his work as “sitting somewhere between real and synthetic” it's easy to imagine the Deptford Goth himself treading a fine line between the absolute and the illusory, traipsing between the lulls of real life and the escapism of his allegorical productions. Latest track 'Union' follows this pattern of opposing sensibilities combined with an impressive composition. The video features a rather forlorn looking Mr Goth wandering around some [...]
Several things crossed my mind when I first heard the gently manipulated vocals, pin-drop pings and synth-swathes of Deptford Goth’s “Real Love Fantasy”: Yes! Does he love Mariah Carey? (Note the node to Mariah's "Fantasy" ... read more
It’s been just over a year since 23-year-old James Bennett composed his first song as Mozart Parties. From the isolation of the village Kirkby Lonsdale, located in England’s verdant, mountainous Lake District, Bennett found himself ... read more
Wolf Gang used to be touted as the sophisticated, suave alternative to tuneful guitar pop, although turned out to be all too tame for the most part. Wild Beasts meanwhile are indubitably the Lake District's most celebrated musical mouthpiece, yet while their melodramatic (increasingly) popular songs may well be doused in suavity, their predilection for sexual innuendo and incessant hooting and howling is oft enervating. Emerging from Kirkby Lonsdale to straighten the misdirections of his compeers, James Bennett, aka Mozart Parties , has readied the sort of single that would have lined Woolworths' coffers with pocketmoney a decade ago. [...]

Wer am Gig von Deptford Goth mit Kajal und metallbeschlagenen Boots aufkreuzen will, sollte sich das schnell wieder abschminken. Der junge Mann aus dem Süden Londons mags zwar schwermütig, allerdings mit einem feinen Anflug von R&B. Mit Goth hat Daniel Woolhouse hörbar wenig am Hut. Vielmehr hat sich der Mann hinter Deptford Goth einem soften Dubstep-Entwurf verschrieben, der immerhin in der Klangfarbe relativ dark rüberkommt. Einmal mehr macht ein junger Londoner klar: Drüben auf der Insel muss es was im Wasser haben, das den [...]
The combination of Bon Iver and James Blake have done a fair amount of quality work in changing the face of the slow jam. Deptford Goth, the sort of mysterious production entity so popular in these days of the internet, channels both on this absolutely entrancing cooled-out cut. There's a bit of a sonic ocean [...]
Merok Records is releasing the debut, four-song EP Youth II by Deptford Goth on October 17th. "No Man" is the free offering, and it's going to rock your world. Deptford Goth is the work of solo Londoner Daniel Woolhouse, and the name is appropriate - imagine traditional British stylings given a gothic, off-kilter makeover and that halfway fits the description. "No Man" is a blank canvas with light brush strokes of sound, minimalist in one swing, and entirely expansive in the next. Simple drum machines [...]
New Track: Deptford Goth - No Man My discovery of Merok Records was one of the few good things which came out of The Big Pink’s short time in the spotlight a year or two ago. One half of the duo, Milo Cordell, is the C.E.O of the label, which has built itself a strong repertoire of RnB, soul and punk music these last couple of years, notably Teengirl Fantasy, Active Child, Titus Andronicus and Salem. The latest Merok release is the new EP from Deptford Goth , a London-based producer, who will [...]

Working off the popularity of their singles Spanish Fly and Moondance , Blondes will be releasing their Touched EP off Merok Records this June. Along with these tracks, these two Brooklynites will add three more originals ( You Mean So Much To Me, Paradise City, Virgin Pacific ) along with a "Sundial remix" of Moondance by Oneohtrix Point Never . I had the pleasure of seeing these guys perform live here in Miami at Eve (formely The White Room) during Art Basel thanks to our friends Erica and Ernesto of Veni Vidi Vici [...]
