The Sun Harmonic - Chemistry (2010) [Hi-Res]

Story time:
This art rock and folk record was the first to be recorded in Kaleb Hikele’s homemade recording studio in Toronto, appropriately titled “The Townhouse Recording Facility & Sound Studio”. The sound of the album ranges from a modern psychedelic, experimental rock, to private and reserved folk, ending in a lullaby and literal whisper.
On “Chemistry”, you will hear Kaleb Hikele’s imaginative aim to dig up his rock and classical roots; tracks like the the refreshingly aggressive “Ready to Flood” and the folk-infused lullaby “Speak Quiet” perfectly contrast with each other. The opening song “The Morning Breaks” awakes and prepares you to sink into the following track “That Golden Crown” with a modern psychedelic sound.
Keep in mind, all sounds on this album were recorded in a basement in Toronto's east end, but the sound and scope reaches further beyond those four walls. All 10 songs were recorded and produced in his project studio in the one-man-band style he’s maintained over the last three years. Kaleb established a craft for songwriting with an organic, acoustic medium on piano and guitar, then arranging and performing other instruments to blow up the ideas into a recording beyond what he could perform live at the time.
