With a sensual sound once described by Under The Radar as "properly abstract, terrifyingly beautiful," New Zealand sonic rock architects Sora Shima have been quietly honing their instrumental craft since 2006. Compared to the likes of Mogwai, Explosions in the Sky, and Godspeed You! Black Emperor, they have released a slew of EPs, a beautiful 10 inch vinyl entitled "Empress," and their haunting debut album "You Are Surrounded" (2014). From delicate, lush soundscapes to walls of powerful guitar, Sora Shima's music is ripe for soundtracking.
Sora Shima means "Sky Island" in Japanese. It is a name that at once captures the imagination and evokes a sense of awe and mystery. Being an instrumental group, free from the confines of regional languages, Sora Shima's music adheres organically to this theme. Wide in scope and as dynamic as the New Zealand landscapes that surround them, their soundscapes encompass a mood that can be both dark and incredibly beautiful. Take your audience on an epic journey with Sora Shima, the perfect aural experience to enhance your dramatic visuals.
As a melodic guitar and piano motif interweaves, the dramatic suspense is heightened by stirring strings and swells punctuated by deep 'booms', adding considerable weight and power to the track. Serene, beautiful and yet ominious - Cowboy Destroyer perfectly captures the calm before a mighty storm. Instrumental, Dramatic, Sad Music
Sendai is a lesson in minimal beauty. A bold, dramatic piano line is set in motion, flirting with major and minor variances as a ghostly, theremin-like guitar glides seamlessly underneath. Like a lost masterpiece from Hans Zimmer's 'Inception' soundtrack, Sendai will leave your listeners stunned. Instrumental, Dramatic, Magical Music
