One-man Matthew Barnes project Forest Swords is based in Wirral/Liverpool, UK. Forest Swords’ music reflects the sprawling Wirral landscape of river, coastland and woodland while echoing nearby city Liverpool’s enviable pop history. Foggy grooves rub shoulders with simple, skeletal R’n’B/hip hop influenced beats and snippets of striking, bewitching melody. It has been described as ‘psychedelic dub’ and ‘slow burning drone-step with soul’. In mid 2009 Forest Swords released CDR EP ‘Fjree Feather’ and limited edition cassette ‘Miarches’. |
