About Me

MyGen Profile Generator
A z u r e H a l o is a N piece popular beat combo hailing from Glasgow. Formed by Rik and Mario 3 yrs ago and complimented by many a local talent, thier crafted vibe has garnered plaudits from The Electric Prunes, whose cover of the song "Left In The Blue" you can check out on the track list above, Sky Saxon of the Seeds, Pete Levin and Mitch Benn, not to mention a great response from the MySpace Psychedelic community.
The debut album "Inside The Dream" is currently being mastered by the great Fran Ashcroft, who has worked with the likes of Damon Albarn and Lords of Acid. Fran's mastering techniques are as distinctive as the Band's sound, the two combined have produced a sonic that captures the retro vibe of a 60's summer with all the intensity of so-called Brit Pop, but refreshingly none of the unwarranted arrogance or needless fuzz.
