The show will also feature a strong filmic element that has been filmed by Nektar films specifically for the live show.

Tickets for the show can be purchased here. They're already selling fast, so don't miss out.

More details soon. In the mean time get a small taste of what you'll hear and see here.

I've just finished writing my first "Full Space Dome" film score for the UK's National Space Centre. Its called "We Are Astronomers", is narrated by "Dr Who's" very own David Tennant, and launches 23rd May in the UK & June in the USA. It features some stunning space visual eye candy! Take your kids along.

Some excerpts from reviews of new Standing in Silent album:


....

“Accomplished, evocative and sustained... the finest release
I’ve had the privilege to review this year.” – Richard Allen (The Silent Ballet
Magazine, USA)

.. ..

“Spine tingling... a tsunami of sound. Sheehan, take a bow,
you’ve nailed it.”  – Tom Cardy (The Dominion Post) *****

.. ..

“Standing in Silence is much more than nice, it almost qualifies
as a religious experience.” – Lydia Jenkin (New Zealand Musician)

.. ..

“A big, bold, beautiful album, exquisitely epic and happy to
wait for you to discover it.”  - Simon Sweetman (North & South)

.. ..

“The great thing about this collection of sounds is that it
works. Experimentalism isn’t dead!” – (Bullet Magazine) ****

.. ..

“Superbly lush soundscapes with truly off-the-charts
production value.” – Daniel Rutledge (Rip It Up) ****

.. ..

“A stunningly static, beautifully textured, listening
experience... it devours and envelopes you. For fans of Sigur Ros or Boards of
Canada.” – Scott Kara (New Zealand Herald) ****

.. ..

“Guarantees a fulfilling state of reflection... finally
climaxing in an euphonious tone.” – Lucy Wyatt (The Groove Guide) ****

Very happy to report that “Standing In Silence” debuted at No.1 on iTunes top 10 electronica downloads last week. The album also entered the top 50 mainstream chart at No.31 (pretty unusual for an instrumental textural ambient album!) click here to buy it on iTunes, or visit www.loopshop.co.nz and order a real physical copy!

Many thanks for listening. ;-)
