Album NZ 2006 on Electrode Records label
Dance (IDM, Downtempo, Ambient)
Sharkweek is proud to present his debut album "The Hammerhead Nebula" for your listening pleasure. A rich blend of lush electronica, sometimes-busy beats, and manipulated found sounds are complemented by vocal samples from a wide variety of sources including a NASA scientist (who gave his blessing to the project), obscure infomercials and a fine pair of talented vocalists. You'll hear elements of pop, ambient, dub, and experimental styles in Sharkweek songs, but there's always something recognisably "Sharkweek" about them! It's music that's simple yet dense, spacey without being formless, and humourous without being silly. Reference points and influences include The Orb, Orbital, Future Sound Of London, Boards Of Canada, Lemon Jelly, Astralasia, Banco de Gaia, and homegrown luminaries like Module and Pitch Black.
