About Me

COMING SOON:
Launching on October 6th 2008 with the Wolrdwide release of 'Mathematics', the highly acclaimed debut album by renfro, Meltwater Records is a new global electronic music label. Its aim is to release a variety of music from artists around the world who are linked together by an interest in fusing the synthetic with the organic, along with a desire to embrace and explore the future of electronic music.
Having spent the past 18 months scouring the globe, Meltwater believes it has brought together some of the most exciting and innovative new artists working in electronics: artists whose work is unified by the manipulation and fracture of found-sounds.
All Meltwater releases will be beautifully presented and packaged using the Digipack format.

renfro - 'Mathematics' (album) CD + Digital

Worldwide: 6 October 2008
"Masterpiece...album of the month" ( Inpartmaint.com )
"Magical, incredibly subtle and emotional. A tender, haunting album 'Mathematics' bubbles and blossoms with soaring melodies and delicate samples" ( Subba-Cultcha.com )
"Brilliant and original songs. One might compare them to a sample–rich merger of Low and Portishead, but that would not do justice to the distinctive sound that renfro have created for themselves." ( YME.COM )
“Immensely rewarding, enchanting glacial glitch pop. Bursting with sublime soul-searching vocals, brimming with feeling and lashings of warm melancholia, produced masterfully. Definitely an Album Of The Week!” ( Norman Records )
“Poetic and hopeful, renfro have expanded the possibilities for the future of their work and the genre as a whole. A band with a heart as well as courage. This is an emotional and emotionally daring record" ( Foxy Digitalis )
"A subtle and beautiful album... folk music re-imagined to suit the glow of an LCD screen rather than a campfire. 'Mathematics' is consistently good right across its 55 minutes" ( Cyclic Defrost Magazine )
"Thoroughly beguiling material. The listener will be transfixed by their swooning melodies and lighter-than-air vocal masses. (The) songs are so lovely, they call to mind nothing less than Morr Music's Slowdive tribute "Blue Skied An' Clear"" ( Textura )
"Should stake Renfro’s place atop the lofty mountains of avant-garde electronic pop without a doubt." ( Earz Magazine )
"Comparable to the more subtle elements used on Thom Yorke’s solo release, 'The Eraser', innovative, serene electronic music that explores the poetic."
( Exclaim! Magazine )
"Sweetly beguiling yet hurting and distant. Arrestingly fragile....is going to break a fair few hearts once it escapes on to the more clued up hi-fi’s of the record buying community” ( Losing Today - The Indie Music Magazine )
