Miss Tiny is the product of a friendship between producer/guitarist/Speedy Underground Guru Dan Carey and vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Benjamin Romans-Hopcraft. Dan and Ben have played together for a while but never released anything until now. Initially the two were known as What It’s Like To Be A Bat – taking the name of an essay written by American philosopher Thomas Nagel – they settled on Miss Tiny, a family name for Benjamin’s late grandmother.

Of the song “The Sound” , Romans-Hopcraft says, “The song is based around feelings of inner-city claustrophobia. Whether that’s at home, on your way to work, constantly socialising. There’s a certain tone to it all that feels like noise, which I feel like you can either hate or decide to enjoy as a means of running away from your own thoughts.”

 

 

 

always centered at night is a label started by Moby; He established it to sign “emerging and fascinating variety of singers to join with me in making music they might not have been able to make elsewhere.” If you didn’t know, Richard Melville Hall is Moby’s real name (and yes, a descendent of). He’s not only a musician (and seller of 20 million records) but an ardent animal rights activist.

The incredible Gaidaa is Sudanese, Netherlands born and raised musician, singer-songwriter. She sings the heck out of the song she created with Moby.
