King Creosote - Love Life flac album

Diamond Mine is a collaborative studio album by Scottish singer-songwriter King Creosote and English electronica musician Jon Hopkins, released on 28 March 2011 through Domino Records. Inspired by the East Neuk of Fife, the album combines Creosote's songs with field recordings by Hopkins. Upon release, Creosote stated: "I really don't know what to do next, because, in some ways, I'm at that peak. I don't know where to go from here

If 2011’s wonderful collaboration with electronica musician Jon Hopkins, the Mercury Award nominated Diamond Mind, was a series of snapshots of Scottish life, then King Creosote’s newest album From Scotland With Love is an entire photo album. Where the Scottish folk singer’s Diamond Mine was concise, restrained and intimate, From Scotland With Love is more expansive, varied and ambitious.

Kenny 'King Cresote' Anderson's documentary film soundtrack, for the Commonwealth Games, tours through Scotland's passages through war, labour, love and loss, writes Dave Simpson. As Scotland ponders the vote for independence, Fife singer-songwriter Kenny "King Creosote" Anderson's latest album is the soundtrack to a documentary film of the same name, to be released for the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. However, he's steered away from politicals in favour of 11 songs about Scotland's pride, people and their passage through centuries of war, labour, love and loss.

King Creosote returns on September 2nd with his new record Astronaut Meets Appleman. It explores the tension and harmony between tradition and technology – between analogue and digital philosophies – and also invokes a feeling, King Creosote (otherwise known as Fife’s Kenny Anderson) says, of being caught between heaven and earth. Astronaut Meets Appleman follows King Creosote’s breakthrough record From Scotland With Love (2014) and his Mercury-nominated collaboration with Jon Hopkins, Diamond Mine (2011). The KC idiom – equal parts geometry, self-deprecation, cosmic wonder and seafaring poetry – remains intact on the forthcoming album, as does his knack for a killer couplet (see drive-pop calypso ‘Love Life’: Her jealous accusations know no bounds, Scarlett Johansson was never in my house ).

King Creosote - Listen toKing Creosote on Deezer. The follow-up to 2014’s peculiarly beautiful and affecting (Q) From Scotland With Love, it's an exquisite album from one of our best-loved voices, replete with a chamber-rock rabble and then some: harps and bagpipes come as standard, as does silence. Sometimes it doesn’t sound like a KC record at all, continues the man also known as Fife's Kenny Anderson, coining another promotional slogan. It sounds far too good

As a standalone album From Scotland With Love is good, but found wanting in areas of length and substance. As a soundtrack to a film, it’s wonderful. The context to choose is the listener’s.

From Scotland with Love. Exploring Scotland's past using only Scottish film archive. Made entirely of Scottish film archive, a journey into our collective past, the film explores universal themes of love, loss, resistance, migration, work and play. Ordinary people, some long since dead, their names and identities largely forgotten, appear shimmering from the depths of the vaults to take a starring role.
