Description: Cocteau Twins And Harold Budd - The Moon and the Melodies (Vinyl LP)(4AD) NEW & SEALED Format: Vinyl LP Cat No: 4AD0642LP Almost forty years after it was initially released, ‘The Moon and the Melodies’ by Cocteau Twins and Harold Budd is being reissued on vinyl for the first time, remastered, from the original tapes, by Robin Guthrie himself. ‘The Moon and the Melodies’ is a singular record within the Cocteau Twins’ catalogue - unusually ethereal, even by their standards, and largely instrumental, guided by the free-form improvisations of Harold Budd, an ambient pioneer who had drifted into their orbit as if by divine intervention. Building on the atmospheric bliss of ‘Victorialand’, released earlier the same year, it signalled a possible future for the trio, yet it was a path they’d never take again. Over the ensuing years, ‘The Moon and the Melodies’ has attracted a passionate fanbase. Its most atmospheric tracks routinely turn up in ambient DJ sets. ‘Sea, Swallow Me’ is one of the Cocteau Twins’ most streamed songs, having found a new life on TikTok, where it serves as the soundtrack to innumerable expressions of hard-to express melancholy. TRACKLISTING: Sea, Swallow Me Memory Gongs Why Do You Love Me? Eyes are Mosaics She Will Destroy You The Ghost Has No Home Bloody and Blunt Ooze Out and Away, Onehow
