About Me |
|
| Winterlight is the music made by Tim Ingham, a laptop and an occasional guitar. When he was younger he played in bands that worshipped My Bloody Valentine and the Cocteau Twins in equal measure, although the nearest they got to success was standing next to Slowdive at the Old Trout in Windsor. After a while other things became more important and he stopped making music.
Years later, when he discovered that he could make music on his battered old laptop, the ideas that he had in his head for years came flooding out and became winterlight. Now he makes music late at night with only a laptop and headphones for company. Electronic music made by someone who has never listened to much, winterlight is one part electronica, one part shoegaze, one part melancholy and one part hope. Lullabies without words.
winterlight now records for Years Without Art part of the mrc group and will be releasing ep's very soon! Please visit my other profile lightsway for my more ambient material; ie less drums. Lightsway will also be releasing material in 2008 on distant noise records Leaving Song has been included in the latest podcast from the very wonderful Loveless Music Group .

My Interests |

Music:Member Since: 4/20/2006Band Website: yearswithoutart.com/ Band Members: tim ingham,a laptop and a guitar. Influences: port-royal, ulrich schnauss, robin guthrie, slowdive, mogwai, stereolab, cocteau twins, my bloody valentine, felt powered by frazy.com Sounds Like: some or all above some of the time, but actually none of the above most of the time. Maybe i'm just thinking about them when I make music or maybe I wish I sounded like them. When my daughter was born it was a stormy night but as I walked out of the hospital back to the car a gap opened up in the clouds and moonlight flooded out of it. To me it seemed as if angels were rushing back to a door that had opened up to heaven having delivered isabel to us. For a long time after she had a large birth mark in the middle of her back and I thought that was where her wings had been cut off before she was given to us. That's pretty much what winterlight sounds like in my head. Record Label: Years Without Art Type of Label: Indie |
