WSCM Your music is inviting and so easy to tumble into. It effortsly worms its way into my brain and demands I listen again.

Michael Did you know that Bandcamp has this quality level of music on it? Cat Stevens, R.E.M., Guster, America, The Byrds, The Moody Blues, Porcupine Tree, and Gin Blossoms would be proud. No fillers. Only bangers. Melody. Come back to this cd and play it over and over. You're going to want to. Magic. Favorite track: Candlestick Morning.

about

I am not quite certain how I happened upon Aberdeen's Kevin Robertson (of The Vapour Trails), although it was probably via the finely tuned ears and subsequent recommendation of Indie Lounge DJ, Beth Dobson, who is from similar parts.

We became cyber-mates courtesy of a love of music, football (the proper one, not the forward rugby one that Americans play in health and safety gear), and a similar outlook on life, as I wormed myself in to add the ramshackle, seat of our pants enthusiasm of the Subjangle label to the more considered and infinitely cooler Futureman Records label of Detroit, to co-release his last three albums.

One thing that is undeniably decidedly dissimilar about us, is talent. Whilst I have none, Kev seems to find melodies, jangled riffs and harmonies just around the corner of every sixties and power-pop musical thought he has ever conceived.

He augments these with a self taught style that is the perfect fit for these beautifully appropriate home recordings that are given lovely production by Nick Bertling and finishing touches from a whole host of musical friends who have appeared on his releases over the years.

Humble to a fault, Kev is never one to even consider the possibility that he might actually be very good, so let Futureman and Subjangle convince you of this with this Magic Spells Abound album that is probably his finest release yet.

Splendido Pop, che si perde nella miriade di produzioni in inglese. Secondo me, c'è spazio per questa musica anche cantata in italiano. Arrangiamenti bellissimi. bruce645

If a group of environmentally minded gray aliens decided to form a rock band, their music might sound like this. Really enjoying the synth and rock fusion! Plushie Fanatic
