"...taking
the World by calm..."
July
2005:- Orange Music release deep sky divers
CD in south-east Asia
After the recent success of
the London 2012 Olympic bid in Singapore,
UK ambient/chillout artists DEEP SKY DIVERS
have followed up with their own success
story from that part of the World. Singapore
based record label ORANGE
MUSIC have released "Deep Sky Divers",
a collection of eleven chilled-out inspirational
tracks selected from the first 5 deep
sky divers CDs. Released in mid-July, this
CD will be available in 6 territories in
south-east Asia through outlets such as
Sembawang, HMV, Tower Records etc...
deep sky divers are an electronic
music duo (Jon Short and writing collaborator
David Jones) from Sheffield, England. True
independent artists and cottage-industrialists,
they have been releasing CDs on their own
Anyrobinhood label since initial
success on the music download site MP3.COM
inspired them to give up their day jobs
and go with the musical flow. Tracks like
"Raging Calm" and "Skylander"
have achieved international recognition
and established the duo as leading UK exponents
of the ambient/new age genre.
deep sky divers music is well
established in the USA where, even without
music industry support, they sell most of
their CDs - thanks to supportive press reviews
and radio airplay on shows like ECHOES and
HEARTS OF SPACE. Their music is, however,
virtually unknown in their own country.
The ORANGE MUSIC release (OM79623)
is the first licensed release of DEEP SKY
DIVERS music anywhere in the World.
Here is ORANGE MUSIC's own
press release:
Orange Music
is proud to present DEEP SKY DIVERS, a collection
of eleven chilled-out inspirational tracks.
The collaborative effort of Jon Short and
David Jones, their music blends the melodicism
of adult contemporary music and classical
new age, together with the breeziness of
non-urban smooth jazz and electronic keyboards
of electronic music. Depending on the track,
their music shines both brightly and softly,
but the music is always illuminating and
wholly enjoyable, in both their simplicity
and jaw-dropping beauty. Dive deep into
their music with this greatest collection
of Deep Sky Divers today.
DEEP SKY DIVERS
is an electronic music duo from Northern
England. Jon Short and writing collaborator
David Jones have been creating and performing
atmospheric electronic instrumental soundscapes
since the early 1990's. The duo created
music inspired by life experience, by landscape
and their interaction with it. Their music
first came to prominence on MP3.COM in 2000,
the positive response was a revelation,
and their debut became the #1 selling CD
by a UK artist on MP3.COM. Since then, they
have released 5 well received CDs on their
own label. They have performed live at festivals
throughout the UK and have composed music
for several UK TV programmes.
