"Waves of layered electro-bliss and danceability with an astounding hypnotic effect... truly a sonic masterpiece born of an artistic match made in heaven, loaded with good vibrations" ~ The Spill Magazine
With just a few weeks to go until the release of the new 'Sea of Eyes' EP from Portland-based Pete International Airport, they now reveal the fruits of their latest collaboration with Andy Bell of Ride fame - the 'Sea of Eyes' GLOK Remix'. This is the third taste from PIA's new 'Sea of Eyes' EP, set for release in November via West Coast indie champions Little Cloud Records,
Pete International Airport revolves around Peter G. Holmström of The Dandy Warhols and Sun Atoms, whose sonic odyssey through the dark underbelly of electronic rock invites listeners into a world of unexpected soundscapes, meticulously crafted to captivate the senses. PIA's quest to build immersive and timeless soundscapes is successful, in part, due to Holmström’s uncanny ability to curate and his penchant for dropping collaborators into challenging creative spaces - both virtual and actual - then letting them duke it out.
Earlier, PIA shared the original version of 'Sea of Eyes' featuring vocals by Alexander Hackett of Montreal dream-gaze outfit Pang Attack, along with an intriguing video by Italian director Francesca Bonci, and, most recently, the rave-inspired adrenaline-inducing 'Out Past The Razor Wire (HYM Post-Industrial Remix)' by long-term collaborator Holy Youth Movement.
The 5-track 'Sea of Eyes' EP was co-authored with and features vocals by Alexander Hackett. Apart from the remix by Andy Bell, the remixes created by Tom Smith (Holy Youth Movement) and long-time collaborator Daniel Sparks (omniscuro) entail a sonic whirlwind of excitement, which would have fit perfectly in such dynamic soundtracks as 'Hackers' or 'Snatch'.
Mixed by Jeremy Sherrer at Spooky Electric Co. (Modest Mouse, The Shins, The Dandy Warhols) and mastered by Dave Coley at Elysian Mastering, most tracks were recorded at Air Traffic Control studio, and drums at The Trench Studios by The Dandy Warhols' sound engineer Gregg Williams.
The 'Sea of Eyes' EP is a logical progression of 'It Felt Like The End of the World' and the 'Tic Tac' 7" single, which boast the cream of the neo-psychedelic crop, including Slowdive's Rachel Goswell, BJM's Anton Newcombe, Dion Lunadon (A Place To Bury Strangers), Cheap Trick's Tom Petersson, Dark Horses' Lisa Elle, and members of Sun Atoms, Guiding Light and Hopewell.
“I really wanted to showcase Alexander Hackett’s vocal contributions to the record. There’s just this insane depth to his lyrics, and his voice is fantastic. The way the initial rollout of the album happened his songs weren’t the singles… I needed to do something to put that out there, and because I’m gonna be working with him in the future, it was something I wanted to do. It also was an excuse to reach out to Andy Bell and see if he’d do a remix and get some other friends involved," says Holmström.
“I always love hearing other people’s interpretations of the tracks and what their ears latch onto and where they take the track from there."
As of October 29, 'Sea of Eyes (GLOK Remix)' is available everywhere. The EP can be ordered (digitally and on limited edition cassette) via Bandcamp. The album 'It Felt Like The End of the World' is also available here (CD, digital, Deluxe double vinyl edition), as is 'Tic Tac' with Rachel Goswell. Its 7" vinyl version is available via both Pete International Airport and The Dandy Warhols.
