Stumbleine
Catastrophette
Monotreme Records
 
A last blast of the trumpeter to hail in the new album due out in just a few days, Catastrophette, the latest Stumbleine single, hits home with the familiar vibe of ambience and intrigue. The proficiency we have learned to expect from music producer Peter Cooper, AKA Stumbleine, extends further than ever with the reach of the so-far released material from Deleted Scene. The 8th full-length album, released by Monotreme Records on the 14th of June, contains the enchanting opener I Can Stop Any Time I Like plus the masterful Ursa Minor Sleeps Forever, fusing a swaggering lo-fi RnB groove with spine-tingling ambience and retro flavoured brightly crafted sounds. A background in post-rock and sweeping semblances of harmonious distortion, a stunning leap into clearer waters has given Stumbleine the edge he wanted to stand out with his own creative spark.
 
A warm vinyl drift elevates a tone of sombre keys and harmony as gentle rhythms meander onward through the bright chill. Gorgeous vocals echo with nostalgic allure as the percussion ripples against bass and vibe. A dive of emotion plunges into memorable playfulness and carefree relaxation as the sonic weather cradles us in the eternity of now. A sense of bliss climbs like roses over last generation’s trellis as the occasional prickly thorn manifests in the aromatic headspace. Catastrophette from Stumbleine sounds like an abstract dream-ballad for a young lady who is acutely aware of the pitfalls while oozing stoic resilience. Perhaps I’m wrong, it wouldn't be a catastrophe.
