Caught In The Wake Forever is the solo venture of Fraser McGowan, a musician based in Paisley, Scotland.
All the Hurt that Hinders Home is his debut EP.
Having released two albums with his band Small Town Boredom, McGowan decided, in 2009, that the time had come to
experiment with his love for ambient music. A number of new tracks were written, recorded and posted on myspace. Soon a
number of labels were knocking on his door to work with him and an agreement was put in place with mini50 records to release
his work.
These new tunes blend an electronic approach with his already established lo-fi acoustic aesthetics. They are characterised
mainly by the use of rhodes piano & classical guitar, surrounded by the subtle warmth of electronics, string machines &
dictaphone field recordings.
The EP will be available on limited edition cd as well as digital download and will feature remixes of the 5 tracks by Library
Tapes, Fieldhead, Sketches for Albinos, Yellow6 and Jonnie Common.
All the Hurt that Hinders Home is reminiscent of the work of Helios but retains a strong sense identity and place. This record
should firmly establish McGowan as one to watch in the future.
