A strange and yet rather intriguing film for Anna Rose Carter & Pleq’s track ‘Rain Again’ directed by Volkan Ergen…

Science! true daughter of Old Time thou art!
Who alterest all things with thy peering eyes.
Why preyest thou thus upon the poet’s heart,
Vulture, whose wings are dull realities?
How should he love thee? or how deem thee wise?
Who wouldst not leave him in his wandering
To seek for treasure in the jewelled skies,
Albeit he soared with an undaunted wing?
Hast thou not dragged Diana from her car?
And driven the Hamadryad from the wood
To seek a shelter in some happier star?
Hast thou not torn the Naiad from her flood,
The Elfin from the green grass, and from me
The summer dream beneath the tamarind tree?

- Edgar Allan Poe

A few months back I put together a mix for the station entitled Off Key. Over time we received many emails from listeners asking if a second edition could be created and so I set aside some time today to do just that…

“From my tattered walls, an infinite reflection corrupts me. The light striking my eye congeals into an opaque silence and, irremediably, I listen. All the words are falling, enveloped by the astral noise of your eyes. In the inclination of your gaze, I see a white hole coming back at me: an interstice of light, a sound tattered by the tongues of the wind”

A word or two about the artist:

”Hailing from the idyllic wilds of the south coast of Wales, Anna Rose, born November 1988, grew up being inspired by her surroundings. She started playing piano aged seven and was influenced by many modern day classical composers as well as the natural beauty around her. Her piano solo work takes its debut on the label Schedios Records. Silver Lines, comprising of five pieces, is a raw, emotional reflection of her upbringing in Wales. She is currently based in London where she is studying, collaborating and developing her own music.”

‘Silver Lines’ literally bathes in beauty…

Young artist Anna Rose creates majestic piano structured compositions that have an atmospheric portrait attached to them unlike anything I have heard for some time. It’s almost like a fusion of Nils Frahm meets Peter Broderick! Quite a statement I know, but that’s just how good this work is.

The key to the success of each piece is the simplicity of her arrangements. There is nothing overcomplicated here, and yet you witness an enormously impressive compositional quality that gently expands withing each track allowing the listening experience to be achingly beautiful.

As a modern composition project ‘Silver Lines’ paints its own opulent picture of mystery and love that transends througout each track in a powerful way leaving me in a state of complete tranquality and I have no doubt that Anna Rose will be a name on every music journo’s lips over the coming year. 9/10 – Fluid Radio
