CHIMEHOURS - Underneath The Earth - CD [OCT 24]

CD

Exploring hauntological soundscapes, the UK-based duo of Beck Goldsmith and Jon Dix are happy to present their debut work, guiding listeners back to an inner connection with the natural world.

Chimehours are a collaborative effort between Beck Goldsmith and Jon Dix, who had previously worked together on several indie folk releases. Now, they’ve teamed up to create a new musical project through which they can express their shared love for folk horror, ghost stories, and the supernatural.

Written and produced between Derbyshire, London, and Margate during lockdown and beyond, the album incorporates drones, drums, gritty guitars merging with woodwind, strings, and voice textures that resist clear linearity. “We started to get bigger and bolder in our approach, and it was fun and mysterious and compulsive to bring it all together (as though other forces were at work...),” shares the duo.
