Memphis Industries

Memphis Industries is a British independent record label based in North London. Established in 1998 by the brothers Ollie Jacob and Matt Jacob, it has become a prominent player in the music industry. With their first release being Blue States' Forever EP, Memphis Industries quickly made a name for itself as a platform for talented artists.

Over the years, Memphis Industries has nurtured and supported numerous *artists* who have gone on to achieve great success. The label prides itself on its diverse roster, spanning various genres including indie rock, electronic, and folk. Their commitment to quality music has earned them an esteemed reputation among both fans and critics alike.

With an impressive catalog of releases under their belt, Memphis Industries continues to discover and promote emerging talent from around the world. Their passion for music shines through in every release they put out, making them a go-to destination for music lovers looking for something fresh and exciting.

Drawing inspiration from disparate musical and poetic sources, two British Mercury Prize nominees have come together in a playful departure from their respective work with Field Music and Maximo Park. Based around text from Paul Smith's travel writing, and Peter Brewis's chamber-band arrangements, the pair have collaborated on a suite of songs, creating a restrained yet richly descriptive sound-world. The music wraps itself around the words and the places they chronicle. The locations become tangible; from their home towns in north-eastern England to more far-flung destinations. Characters appear, such as the diminutive L.A. Street Cleaner going about his work in the song of the same title, or the romantic old couple "digging their forefingers in freshly-soaked sand" in 'Santa Monica'. 'Frozen By Sight', then, is a rare piece of music that quietly announces the arrival of a potent new collaboration.
