We've never actually met, but I'm sure if we ever do, it'll be magic!
Tim makes music as Faux Pas.
He's one of the amazing Melbourne artists whose stuff I believe is far more interesting that Wally-De-'Hearts A Mess'-I-have-an-Aria-Baker, but that is unfortunately overshadowed by the juggernaut that is Gotye. Not that Gotye isn't a great artist, I just believe Faux Pas is better. When he independently released his 2006 debut album 'Entropy Begins At Home' I was blown away! It was a simple but layered, carefully considered fusion of pop, electro and crunchy psychedelia.
Its not suprising then, that when I was sent a copy of his new single last week, I was hooked immediately! The chorus line "every time I think I'm the only one whose lonely, someone calls on me" is hauntingly honest but also so cutsey and catchy!
Have a listen
Changes
'Bug In Mouth' Pikelet - Faux Pas remix
Yumi and the Sky' Zeal - Faux Pas remix
'Changes' is the first single from his upcoming sophomore record, and has been released with some of Tim's remixes that after floating around for a while on the web are finally available on disk. Pikelet (Melbourne) and Zeal (Adelaide) are two more artists definitely worth your time if you're after some great Aussie talent.

And I have to apologise for the quietness of Movestill recently, we've all been pretty flat out. We'll be back in full force soon. Promise x
