Caught In The Wake Forever is the project of musician & home recording artist Fraser McGowan.
Having previously released work on London label 'The Remains Of My Estate' as lead singer of Paisley based miserablist’s Small Town Boredom. At the beginning of 2009 he began working on several instrumental pieces blending a more electronic approach with his already established lo-fi acoustic aesthetics. These new tunes are characterised mainly by the use of rhodes piano & classical guitar surrounded by the subtle warmth of electronics, string machines & dictaphone field recordings.
Debut EP entitled ‘All The Hurt That Hinders Home’ was released on mini50 records in June 2011. The 5 track EP featured 5 bonus remixes by Library Tapes, Fieldhead, Yellow6, Sketches for Albinos and Jonnie Common. Also a collaboration 3" cd with Karina ESP & Sheepdog was released on Hibernate Recordings. A full length record, to be released on Hibernate, is due this year.
This compilation is a good cross-section of indie and lo-fi tunes from the community of the UK-based independent label. Bandcamp New & Notable May 17, 2019
