“Thick, melancholic and evocatively haunting soundscapes created entirely by guitar, the music of Sleeping Me employs a balance of delicacy, power and gentle reverb to present an affecting sound that’s resplendent in its warmth and fiery beauty. ‘Lamenter’, closely following stunning debut full-length ‘Cradlesongs’ on celebrated Australian imprint Hidden Shoal, proves that Sleeping Me’s sound finds peace in even the most heartbreaking of circumstances, rarely has the devil’s instrument of choice sounded so heavenly.”

“Heavily inspired by the compositional techniques of György Ligeti, Simon’s first release Anthem is full of dynamic movement and heavy textures that, in its entirety make for an ever changing body of work that invites the listener to fall headlong into this world of sinuous, melodic drones, evocative motifs and cleverly incorporated real-world sounds.”
