Glass EP

VINYL FORMAT. Limited to 500 hand numbered copies on two-tone colored vinyl! Glass Vaults is a Wellington, NZ based two piece who use a mixture of washed textures, ambient and atmospheric soundscapes and an amalgamation of programmed and live drums. Both born in the rural Manawatu, Richard Larsen and Rowan Pierce met at university in Wellington where they began experimenting with music under the name Vaults. Having recently graduated and undergone a name change to Glass Vaults, the pair are using their time to work on writing and shaping their sound under this guise. The Glass EP is the pairs' first release and was recorded on Rowan's grandmothers farm in March 2010. They then teamed up with friend Bevan Smith (Signer, Over the Atlantic, The Ruby Suns) to produce. Glass EP is an initial marrying of the pairs' ambient, looped soundscapes fused with minimal lyrical content and structured songwriting.
