"Detach" is the new album from UK-based independent electronic producer Northcape, imported from Brighton, UK.
The music could best be described as chilled melodic electronica, but genres and technology aren't as important here as communicating ideas, images, landscape and emotion. In the spirit of the best downtempo electronica, IDM and ambient, Northcape creates fresh, distinctive, melodic and personal-feeling music which transcends its electronic components.
Northcape is the ongoing work of a British artist (currently living in Brighton, England) who has been producing electronic music for quite some time. Northcape's music is mainly instrumental and blends influences from a wide range of different styles, in particular trance, beats and breaks, IDM, ambient and downbeat electronica, always with a strong melodic element. The music is made in a very intuitive way instead of attempting to create a specific type of track or to fit into any particular genre. Nevertheless, Northcape has developed a distinctive and unifying style, which although it sometimes faces the dark side of life normally retains an essential optimism. Although most tracks (so far) don't have lyrics, they are all drawn strongly from personal experience. This approach leads to something that is both enjoyable to listen to and refreshingly different.
