INTRODUCING… SOLAR BEARS

Music | jon.ramsay | November 16, 2010

Solar Bears‘ music could legitimately be described as leafy, or earthy, or even even grain-fed, 100% organic. But forget the trite nature-related descriptors… how about we just say they’re really bloody good?

It’s undeniable that there’s a beautifully natural quality to their sound, a completeness that’s reminiscent of such pastoral heavyweights (if that’s not a complete oxymoron) as Boards of Canada and Ulrich Schnauss. It’s testament to how much Mike Paradinas‘ UK label Planet Mu has evolved that acts like Solar Bears now rub shoulders with original IDMers like Shitmat and Luke Vibert. Check out the lead track from their recent ‘Inner Sunshine EP‘ below to see why we’re hyping them so hard.

Solar Bears have recently released their full debut ‘She Was Coloured In‘, also on Planet Mu. Click this link to buy if you like what you hear!
