Coney Island Sound is a new project started by Hull-based Ewan Gordon that mixes a variety of found sounds, environmental recordings, folky melodies and busy electronica. Accordions and Harps rub shoulders with Casios and Kaoss Pads while Acoustic guitars and unusual rhythm sources construct more familiar song structures.

The music follows a more experimental direction and began alongside his endeavours with Olympic Lifts. It was whilst playing and DJing with the likes of Four Tet, Royksopp, Ladytron, Mina, Notwist, Lo-Fidelity Allstars and Ugly Duckling that he first started mixing environomental audio with folk elements collecting ideas on Dictaphone tapes.

Coney Island Sound's first posting was 'Bring My Love's Unwanted Arrow' (featuring a vocal from Bod of Fonda 500) which evolved from cutting together found Maori folk song records (currently available on the acclaimed I Can Count Vol.2 compilation).

Other previous work includes remixes for Skint Records, Escalator Records (Japan) & Bungalow Records (Berlin) while more recently he has remixed a track for label-mates Alaska In Winter for inclusion on their current EP.

Coney Island Sound's debut 7", entitled 'Introducing Mr Kellog', is out now. Listen to a preview clip here >>
