about

Nice Music presents the debut album proper from Melbourne's Thomas Hardisty, known for his varied and imaginative contributions to Nun, Constant Mongrel, Woollen Kits and more. Hardisty has quietly laboured on 'Peace In The Plaza' over the 2 years leading up to its release, taking time to channel the wordless profundity which fills this record in plumes of contemplative melody and warmth. His placid focus on understated expression on this recording seems to be fueled deeply by its decided concept; a study of the mind's quiet hours which bookend the working day's concerns. This essence slides glacially within a specific physical space, encapsulated entirely by the suburban valley in which Hardisty has found himself - Northcote's verdant suburban strips which back onto parkland and more namely, the somewhat notorious Northcote Plaza. The ghosts of concepts such as sobriety or daily responsibility linger with indolence in the distance while this music gives space to a purer consciousness, albeit within a commonly experienced inner city milieu. Hardisty wields the sleight of hand to animate this juxtaposition, intangibly and lovingly.

For fans of Hiroshi Yoshimura, Abul Mogard

A masterclass in restrained, synth sound-scaping, this album is simply gorgeous. Saturated ambient tones, gentle evolving harmonies and subtle loops combine to create something totally magical. I can’t say enough good stuff about this LP. Respect! Super Super Sounds

Really dig this record- discovered in an NTS Kranky mix and after giving it some repeat listening felt I needed physical copy- excellent spacial drift buzz. Greg Hodgson Design

Brilliant combination of indigenous music, and electronica, I have no idea what is being said, but it just doesn't matter. briancarrphoto
