Bell MP3 Downloads

Download: Bell mp3

There's to a higher degree one artist on this name: 1) Bell is a New York-based banding led by Russian-born, Alaska-raised songstress Olga Bell. Bell's good resembles Björk, Feist, and Radiohead. 2) Bell is consisted of Dan Crouch and Adrian Stephens, from Archway, North Greater London. Crouch provides most of the melodic know-how and tech savvy, with Stephens providing the "rock 'n' roll" element, and track names. Stephens' contribution stretches also to some impressive dance moves, hampered only by alcohol, drugs and law of proximity of tangled cabling and sound gear. Always entertaining live. Sometime fixtures at Brixton's Dogstar, and Brick Lane's 93 Feet East. Signed to Soul Jazz the duo are purveyors of a dark strain of minimal, no-nonsense electro. Their sound derives from a stated intent to only use the preloaded sounds that accompany each piece of equipment they acquire. When these are exhausted the kit is cast and they advance. Bell's debut album "Numbers" consequently sounds like it was brought almost 5p, but nevertheless contains some notable contributions to the genre. The second album "Seven Types of Six", shows the pair in rare form, with the menacing centrepiece, "Black Helicopters", not to be missed. A third album isn't beyond the realms of possibility, although Stephens is reportedly sleeping in Rishikesh, India, in a mansion on the banks of the river with a fully operational cannon on his balcony, while Crouch is in New York City, and "concocting buying a speedboat". A recent setback: The floor of Bell's Hastings studio fell flat in the New Year. Crouch reportedly distressed with the missus. But repairs have now been made to the newly christened "Lab of Fear", and afresh albumen the works this summer!
