Hidden Shoal Recordings Releases “Too Late” By The Belgian Dream Pop Outfit, Colour Kane.

Perth, Western Australia and Antwerp, Belgium.
The Australian digital music label, Hidden Shoal Recordings, today announced the release of the Glorybox Remix of “Too Late”, the first single taken from the forthcoming album by the Belgian dream pop outfit, Colour Kane.

With his remix of “Too Late”, Fredrik Johansson of Glorybox has managed to distill the lush guitar based sound of Colour Kane into a stripped back brooding nocturnal slice of melancholic electronica. Its beat-driven orchestral movements and driving bass, layered with the gorgeous vocals of Marjan Snykers create a luscious slice of downbeat atmospheric pop.

Colour Kane are one of the new breed of dream popsters following on from the genre’s masters, the Cocteau Twins. Colour Kane is lush cascading guitars and sweet soaring vocals propelled by driving bass and electronic beats. The band’s music draws a wonderful arc that both defines and divides melancholy and bliss. Where so much dream pop is described through aesthetic alone, Colour Kane radiate atmosphere and shifted emotion wrapped in jewelled blankets and honey gauze.

The band developed from the seeds of the Abricot project, comprising Belgian music scene veterans Bruno Kimpe and Joeri Gydé. The pair teamed up with vocalist Marjan Snykers and Colour Kane was borne.


The band’s music found Cocteau Twin, Robin Guthrie, who offered his support, ultimately leading to the band supporting Robin during his Lumière shows in Belgium. In addition Colour Kane’s soon to be released debut album, “A Taste Of” features a Robin Guthrie remixed track.

"Too Late" is available exclusivlely through the HSR Store and is the first single taken from the forthcoming Colour Kane album, “A Taste Of”, to be released through Hidden Shoal Recordings on the 20th of February 2007.
