Well what a week we have had. From being bombarded with great new music from the likes of this weeks Artist of the Week, Area 27; to spending 3 days in the english countryside listening to some great music.
If you want to find out what we got up to at the Big Chill Festival (UK), visit http://www.beachhouseradio.com/bigchill.html Here you will find loads of pics and a quick insight into our weekend. Video clips are also available on our TV channel at www.youtube.com/beachhouseradio
We are proud to announce this week's artist Area 27. Formed in 2004 by Shalien & The Lord of The Starfields, Area 27 is a collaborative music project that has remained somewhat enigmatic.
The debut CD "Magik & Mayhem" was concieved and recorded in an unorthodox fashion at a series of inspirational locations and makeshift studios. These locations included a converted office floor in a very cosmopolitan section of Melbourne, Australia, a decommissioned navy base on the Central Coast of California and a magikal, serene property in the California high desert..
The music draws from a wide range of influences, from obvious contemporaries; Portishead, Massive Attack etc to the not so obvious but strong influence of artits as varied as David Bowie, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Peter Gabriel, INXS, Prince, Coldplay, Radiohead & Tom Waits.

Have a great week.
