Bliss Creek by Bliss Creek
Released September 25, 2020 on Kinship
THIS PROJECT WAS BIRTHED IN THE GARAGEBAND SOFTWARE OF A 2004 MAC BOOK PRO.
IN A DOGMATIC APPROACH TO SONGWRITING AND PRODUCTION, MR BLISS CREEK (RICHIE SETFORD) DECIDED TO LIMIT HIMSELF BY WORKING EXCLUSIVELY 'IN THE BOX', EVEN USING THE INTERNAL LAPTOP MIC FOR ANY VOCAL OR ACOUSTIC INSTRUMENTATION.
AIDED BY SOME EXTERNAL SAMPLING AND DRUM PROGRAMMING, THE BLISS CREEK SOUND AESTHETIC IS AN EVOCATIVE LANDSCAPE - CINEMATIC AND IMAGINATIVE. COLOURS PULSE AND INTENSIFY, MORPH AND MURMUR. ORGANS AND SYNTHS WRAP AROUND MELODIES THAT DRIP DOWN LIKE SHARDS OF LIGHT. LIKE STAINED GLASS SET TO MUSIC. DREAM WAVE POP FOR LONG ATTENTION SPANS.

Bliss Creek is the side project of Berlin based/NZ displaced artist Richie Setford. A project that was birthed in the Garageband software of a 2004 Mac Book Pro. In a dogmatic approach to songwriting, Richie decided to limit myself to working exclusively 'in the box', utilising the internal laptop mic for any vocal or acoustic instrumentation.
A stained glass dream wave for long attention spans.
