Empire Of Silence - first album by Port Fish


Empire Of Silence

Empire Of Silence is the first released full length album by Port Fish, ambient | chillout | experimental band from Košice, Slovakia.

The album was born after one year of composing and recording. Despite earning positive reviews from several independent media representatives, no interest from any major label - then strictly oriented on commercial dance music - was shown. With no perspective in their home country Port Fish decided to release the album on its own over the internet. Empire Of Silence was then released by independent label ItsAboutMusic.com and later re-released officially by Ohmophonia as a digital release.

From the first second of hearing Port Fish, I was enthralled with their lighthearted sound. Not since the days of band Frasier Chorus have I heard anything this cool.

I'm really enjoying your songs. I love that they are serious and meaningful... damned near somber, yet there's an undeniable playfulness there. If one could record human instinct musically, I think it would fetch similar to Antarctic. Anyways, sorry about the rambling. I really just wanted to say that I thoroughly enjoyed hearing these songs.

You are making very friendly gentle music with a lot of atmosphere. Really no fishy music at all.

I really like your sound. Despite what many people say, good ambient is difficult to pull off, and you guys have definitely done it very well.

Just listened to all your tracks whilst typing some letters, a job i normally hate. I'm feeling very calm now-if you can give that kind of gift with your music, then i'd say you are on to something.
