Sharesprings are a
brilliantly noisy pop band from Jakarta, Indonesia. I came upon them on
MySpace a couple months ago, probably. I'd planned on mentioning them
way earlier – as they're awesome – but they fell through the cracks.
They're self-described "tweegazers" and their influences include Yo La
Tengo, early My Bloody Valentine, Rocketship. They bring together
breathy, reverbed-soaked vocals and noisy, swirling, reverb-soaked
guitars to create beautiful soundscapes built upon catchy pop melodies!

They've appeared on several compilations and self-released their Ceiling Blossom
demo earlier this year. Here's a song from that demo – it's called
"Unclouded" and I'm pretty sure you'll love it! It reminds me quite a
bit of early Ride with those ringing guitars and that vocal melody –
and just wait until the end when the feedback starts flaring up! Ahh,
fantastic!

[MP3]: Sharesprings :: Unclouded (Very Highly Recommended!)

Sharesprings
will be part of the Supersonic Sound Fest Tour in Indonesia starting
off December 19 in the band's hometown – and capital of Indonesia –
Jakarta. The lineup includes other great bands like Astrolab,
MellonYellow, Sarin, and The Milo – just to name a few. A poster with
the rest of the bands and the dates can be found HERE! If you happen to be in Indonesia, you should definitely check it out!

Album Description:
The shoegaze movement that built short prosperity by bands such as My Bloody Valentine, Slowdive and Cocteau Twins in 90's returns as nu-gaze and it's a pleasure to release this record titled Half Dreaming - an Asian shoegaze compilation album brought to people all over the world by Quince Records. A lot of people seem to have much interest on how shoegaze/dreampop scene in Japan and Asia is now in progress or how much retro-futurist
artist from the viewpoint of electronica such as Ulrich Schnauss and Manual exists. Actually, it is never an easy labor to find many new Asian talents in this kind of genre. Though, they will be compared with the US & European shoegaze-influenced bands soon, and it should be recognized through Half Dreaming first. It features together sixteen bands with a strong passion for the shoegazing style, some artists are well known already in an Asian indie music scene, others have a debut record in near future. The compilation is including only for the new song, unreleased version and re-recorded tracks.

Germany Version:

Ich hatte es ja vor einigen Monaten schon bemerkt - irgendwie scheint in Asien in den letzten Jahren eine vitale Shoegaze/Indiepop-Szene aufgeblüht zu sein, denn eine tolle Band nach der anderen gelangt via Myspace auch an mein Ohr. Diesmal die Sharesprings aus Indonesien - das Quartett führt als Einflüsse My Bloody Valentine, Ride, The Legends und Rocketship an und bezeichnet die eigene Musik als "Tweegaze", was eine sehr passende Umschreibung für die janglegitarrenumspülten Melodien des Quartetts darstellt. Netterweise bietet uns die Sharesprings ihre Demos komplett zum Download zur Verfügung. Besonders «Ceiling blossom» schwebt und droned schön vor sich hin und könnte auch aus den britischen Früh-90ern stammen!

English Version:

I some months ago already had noted it yes - somehow seems bloomed in Asia in the last years a vital Shoegaze/Indie pop-scene to be, for a crazy volume after the other arrives via Myspace also at my ear.  This time the Sharesprings from Indonesia - the quartet cites as influences My Bloody Valentine, Ride, The Legends and Rocketship and designates rinsed represents the own music as a "Tweegaze", what a very suitable paraphrase for the jangle gitar renum melody of the quartet.  Nice manner offers the Sharesprings its demoes completely to the download to the decree to us.  Especially "Ceiling blossom" floats and droned beautifully before itself there and could come also 90s from the British early!

Shoegazer Alive say:

Half twee half shoegazer, Sharesprings is a lovely band from Jakarta (Indonesia) formed in 2006, but seem playing together for much more time. I heard the 3 songs, and loved all.
