YELLOW 6 has joined the Resonant camp for new full lengther (cheeky cheeky) 'Painted Sky'. The title sums up this guys sound perfectly. The album begins with 'I Know I Shouldn't (But I do)' which makes me think of Angelo Badalamenti's 'Twin Peaks' score. The album evoles into what could be a road movie or spaghetti western soundtrack. You get the feeling your lost in the desert, not unlike Earth's 'Hex Or Printing In The Infernal method' or Ennio Morricone. As always with Yellow 6 pure emotion emmits from the strings. This is a lot more stripped down in places with slightly less use of effects. 'Nye 2' is a haunting piano piece which almost acts as an interlude before we drift away to the sublime 'Realisation'. Quality as always.

What their label says...

A debut on Resonant from a man with a wealth of back catalogue on labels
such as Enraptured, Darla, Bearos, Ochre, Awkward Silence and many, many
more, spanning almost a decade.
Yellow 6 is the solo project of Jon Attwood, a guitarist based in
Leicestershire (the first UK-based artist to release an album on
Resonant!) who has released six full length albums, five live albums and
one remix album, on top of several mini-albums and EPs, singles and
contributions to numerous compilations.
"Painted Sky" was recorded between 2004 and 2006, and strips away many of
the layers of previous outings, resulting in a collection of melodic,
organic guitar and piano soundscapes backed with subtle percussion.
More ambient than post rock, "Painted Sky" draws comparisons to
Labradford, Cocteau Twins, Durutti Column, Slowdive, Windy & Carl and Erik
Satie, as opposed to the quiet/loud exponents; this is quiet/quiet, with
an overall air of wistful melancholy.
