Surfside no.2 [excerpt] |

"The sea pronounces something, over and over, in a hoarse whisper; I cannot quite make it out." Annie Dillard
It's this musical whisper that is amplified on Oceanic Feeling-Like, as Italian based musician Mike Cooper and Australia's Chris Abrahams unite for the first time to create what could be described as a picturesque horizon of melodic ocean swell.
Stretching out wide, Oceanic Feeling-Like is generously coloured by Cooper's unique approaches to the guitar and Abrahams' distinctive piano motions. Both bring a wealth of technique and improvised flare, creating a series of island-like compositions that eventually form an unusually divergent sound archipelago.
Recorded in Sydney at Abrahams' home studio, each of the pieces explores a unique sound space – that's both reflective and reflexive.
Truly a release that ebbs and flows in the best way imaginable. An ocean of sound awaits - sometimes calm and flowing, occasionally chopping and unexpected, but always experiential.

"Abrahams relentless and steady patterning started to metamorphose the nature of the piano, the upper chords sounding like a distant locomotive hoot, and then an accordion weaving in and out of a shimmering bank of flutes." THE WIRE, UK
Chris Abrahams is best known for his work as pianist with the trio The Necks. The Necks have toured extensively and have released eleven albums in their fifteen-year career. Outside of the Necks, Chris has released four solo piano albums - "Walk", "Piano", "Glow", "Streaming" and now his debut on ROOM40 "Thrown". He has also released five albums with Melanie Oxley as well as albums with Stevie Wishart, The Hunting Party, and Artery and the Benders. All up he has produced or co-produced some 24 albums.
Abrahams has also worked extensively in soundtrack composition for both feature films and documentaries. In 1998, with the Necks, he composed the soundtrack to the feature film "The Boys" and soon after the ABC three part series "In The Mind of The Architect". With Lloyd Swanton he co-wrote the soundtrack to the ABC six part series "A Case For The Coroner". His solo credits include composing the soundtrack for the ABC three part series "Bad Behaviour" and the SBS short feature "Lenny Cahill Shoots Through".
