A place where new Silas material is sometimes heard....

Videos on Youtube

It seems a Madame Papillon has taken a bit of a shine to some of my tracks. He/She has done an absolutely stunning job of putting visuals to four or five of them. Not only that, but, in general, the collection on her/his Youtube channel is worth a look at. Really, really stunning views, colours and moods. Beautiful work.

I thank you once again....

Feast your eyes

A couple of new albums for y'all.

The Path Between The Trees featured on John Toolan's Music To Wash Up To

"...During our passage through the album we have encountered many changes in mood, warmth and texture, but there is no sense that these changes have been contrived, and indeed, the journey seems as pure as one may encounter on a personal level."

Some thoughts on The Path Between The Trees from Tom Laird

"...I think it is an excellent release. But there are two sides to Cousin Silas, maybe even a bit of Bipolarity going on somewhere. One one hand is the dark ambient stuff and then on the other it is guitar/keys/soundscape which are cinematic in nature but stunning musicianship on these tracks."

At last! A Ballard-related video!

Whilst a lot of my music has been featured in Ballardian type videos, there hasn't been a directly related one... until now. I feel quite proud to have had my music chosen for an animated version of Ballard's High Rise novel. My special thanks to Mike Bonsall.
Here's the video:

The Path Between The Trees

I'm very happy to announce the release of 'The Path Between The Trees', my latest offering. It's on the new Netlabel We Are All Ghosts, a label set up by my good mate Thomas Mathie. Thomas has done artwork for a few of my previous albums, and this new release, as far as I am concerned, is some of the best he's done.

Judging by the thousands of comments I usually get, it seems I'm talking to myself again, but because my memory isn;t what it was, it's perhaps a good thing because next week I'll look on my blog and realise I've a new release.

A few new Vids

Cristina Pavesi has made a short video called Celebrity using 'The Death Of Reagan' from Ballard Landscapes II. You can find the video here http://vimeo.com/33675866

To promote the release of the free online game, The World Of The Living Dead, a feature video has been created and is on Youtube. Two tracks, again taken from Ballard Landscapes II have been used for the soundtrack. The tracks are Motel Architecture and, strangely enough, The Death Of Reagen. You can see the video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CZQQ_r41KeY

My thanks to both Cristina Pavesi and David Barton.

A Bit Of New....
