Codes transmission begins.
Gary Lightbody – (Snow Patrol) – 'Breathtaking…it kicks redemptive ass'
Michael Rother - (Neu/Kraftwerk) - 'Your concept of intimacy and space is very interesting. Beautiful music, congratulations!'
Iain archer - (Solo Artist, Ivor Novello Award winner)- 'It is new music that sounds like nothing else around at the moment - beautiful, soulful, momentary paeans of glory, I kid you not.'
MP3 Hugger Review - 'Burning Codes are showing why it is sometimes better to lead by what comes from inside rather than follow what is going on all around.'
Burning Codes is the solo project of Irish, Belfast born singer and songwriter Paul Archer,(Paul also contributed vocals to five tracks on Snow Patrol's 'Eyes Open') the project also includes various sonic collaborators including Iain Archer (Solo Artist, Snow Patrol, Reindeer Section, and Ivor Novello winner).
Burning Codes music concerns our own unique messages, the codes which are truly ours, uniquely understood and owned by each of us, uniquely. The music is birthed from our moments and what we do with these moments, how we see, feel, react, encode and decipher the inner messages and the outer manifestations of what we feel, think and do.
'Burning Codes 2' was conceived and recorded around the
core thinking that, often our society does'nt really address
the issue/s of our innate uniqueness and at the same time
our connectivity, communality. Nor does it seem comfortable
or happy to address how our personal knowledge of these deep
core inner issues, feelings, ethics, personal 'codes'
inform our own decision making, perception and
understanding, an understanding which which often begins 'at
home', not with the collective or familiar or 'peer' home
but deep inside each of us, in the deep well of who and what
makes us who we are?
These ideas of our deepest, individual, unique, inner
ethics, feelings thoughts,perceptions, concepts, codes of
life, conduct, creativity and 'being' are not often talked
about yet they are a very significant part of what really
makes us a unique individual whilst we may also be part of a
larger society, race, creed, culture,group, club. This new
album is as much about affirming and accepting our uniqeness
as our abundant diversity
Would'nt it be wonderful if this deeper unique nature was
normalised in our thinking in our society, talked about
openly not just in specialist books or documentaries but the
'word' on the street, the lyrics in the song, the flow in the rap, the
words which affirm our unique and deepest core nature.
