The Doozer - Great Explorers

Within the bright lights of Mill Road, THE DOOZER makes his home. The city informs the music.  The music informs the city.  He’s been in the city for a while now, observing movements out of the window, watching and talking, buying and borrowing. Recent excursions include travelling in South East Asia, picking up sounds, turning them around and giving them back and secret shows in the Plain of Bah. Fields recordings as short run giveaways and free downloads have been released via his ‘EXPLORATORY MUSIC SERVICE’.  Earlier in the year KRAMER produced a 7” single for THE DOOZER, built for the format, old style.GREAT EXPLORERS is the culmination of 2 weeks of intense recording, and a good few months of refining and mixing.  You’ll find global sounds for homeland pleasures, touching upon our savage civilisation, streetwalkers and wavers, and the oldest carvers.  With the tone being of paramount importance, the record was recorded to tape with analogue reverb all the way, assisted by the adhoc creation of spring and reverb chambers.  It’s a three-dimensional world with coloured pictorial sound spaces.  Look out for the aluminium dome. "The Doozer furrows a path somewhere between the progressive folk styling of Animal Collective and the wide-eyed wonder of early Badly Drawn Boy. Weirdness levels are ramped up to eleven - not least due to some initially jarring chord sequences - and pastoral psychedelia reigns in a not unlovely debut’ Plan B‘What we have here is an introspective pop album bathed in seductive psychedelia, blurry images of the British countryside, unexpected loops and hazy soundscapes’ Mats Gustaffson / The Broken Face
