The Resonance Association , formed in 2006, brings together the pairing of Daniel Vincent (lead guitars, keyboards, sequencing) and Dominic Hemy (guitars, theremin, electronics) to create music that combines emotive guitar solos, dense atmospherics and blistering industrial rhythms. The band's music falls into a number of different categories including ambient, goth, noise, chill out, dark, krautrock and experimental[1].
[edit] Clarity In DarknessRecording for the third album began in the spring of 2009, with the first clips appearing of the new website clarityindarkness.com. The first track Dangerous Fantasist then appeared as the b-side to the last single from the We Still Have The Stars album The Moment Has Passed in June 2009[2]. The album is slated for a January 2010 release[3]. [edit] We Still Have The StarsThe Resonance Association's second album We Still Have The Stars once again demonstrated the band's preference to fuse electronic experimentation with more traditional progressive- or space- rock songwriting. Recorded between January 2008 and August 2008, the album was written and produced by the band; the track 'Unite' features Scott Fuller on guest vocals - he also wrote the track's lyrics[4]. The album was meant with generally positive reviews, Classic Rock Presents Prog describing it as "both a challenging and enjoyable listen ... well worth investigating"[5] and Hippy Towers saying "they still have a winning way with atmospheric electronica-based material... an accomplished, highly atmospheric and above all very creative offering"[6]; the Dutch Progressive Prog Pages gave the album 9/10, "if you are a fan of dark, experimental industrial based music you will love this CD"[7]. [edit] Failure Of The Grand DesignFailure Of The Grand Design was the duo’s first album to be sold in traditional CD format. Recorded over the first half of 2007 at the band’s studio in South London, the album is the band’s debut release for Burning Shed, the independent online art-rock label founded by Tim Bowness (No-Man, Centrozoon) and Peter Chilvers (A Marble Calm, Alias Grace). The nine songs that make up Failure Of The Grand Design use guitar drones, found sounds, manipulated electronics and a "central furtive gloom that works throughout"[8]. Covering all of the bases sonically, from the ambience of Magnetophon and The Darkening Storm and the electronic glitchtronica of God Is In Tiny Boxes, to the powerful guitar drones of Three Hundred And Sixty Degree View and the melodic guitar battering that is I Have Seen The Future, And I Am Not In It ("...absolutely essential listening"[9]; "...starting off darkly before it hardens into a frigid cry and a long cavernous section of sonic black ice. A dangerous song."[10]), the album brings together the band’s many influences from extreme metal to acid house via krautrock, industrial, post-rock, psychedelia, drone and progressive rock ("...journeys that do seem to go somewhere, driving through intermanable chemical factories towards an unnamed destination which you discover is a verdant forest that hides a huge cathedral"[11]). [edit] Early DemosThe duo's first release was the four-track 40-minute mini-album Volume One. This was followed by Appendix One, another four-track collection, this time featuring three live tracks (one from the rehearsal studio, two from the duo's October 2006 appearance at the "Immersion" night in Bethnal Green) in addition to a different mix of Volume One's opener Fake Numbers Station. Volume Two was released in December 2006, comprising of four tracks of ambient rock experimentation, found sounds and atmospheric samples. Its counterpart, Appendix Two, features a live improvisation of what would become Volume Two's centrepiece Adrift Part One, in addition to three tracks left over from the sessions. In early 2007, the duo also released a suite of four songs entitled Northern Coastline Soundtrack, inspired by a remote listening post on the Yorkshire Moors near Whitby in Northern England.[12] These four songs were released on a limited promotional CD with four other tracks - three remixes and a new song called Forest, which would go on to become the basis for album opener The Darkening Storm.
