Shout Out: Let’s Go Somewhere Quiet

Teabags, tears and tunes to heal the soul. A new 14 track compilation of house, downtempo and indie, with all profits going to charity. The Let’s Go Somewhere Quiet album will be released worldwide on 20 August.

How many times do we hear that music can heal the broken-hearted? This new compilation from Acid Ted blog and THEE PAUSE takes you on a rollercoaster – the pain of hurt through to the blistering joy of being alive via a compilation of raucous dance, delicate house, acoustic indie and downtempo chill.

Crystal Castles remixer Alex Zelenka provides electronic wizardry in the pumping Gemini and Coventry’s QTheSuit offers twisted spybreaks in the cinematic thrill ride that is v6. The mysterious Larry Jefferson gives classic Detroit house sounds with Welcome.The other quieter side is shown by the heart-breaking poignancy of Stylusboy’s acoustic A Song for Noah and Coolio Franco’s Song for David. Sam Levine gives the joy of being alive in the jumping positivity of Rootless.

This album has a purpose beyond the joy of the music. Its exec producer Acid Ted blog is known not only for his music blog but also for his frank and raw diary of watching his beautiful boy fight against a brain tumour. And lose.

This is what has inspired him to bring these artists together for the first time and who are giving their services for free. All profits will go to brain tumour charities in the USA and UK:http://braintumourtrust.co.uk/ - http://www.cbtf.org/

Life is what this album is about. The keeping going. The being able to see the dark irony in the mundane. Realizing life can change forever in the time it takes to go out and get some teabags. And, most of all, it’s about the music which reminds us what life is all about.

Available worldwide this August 20th via iTunes, Amazon, Juno, Beatport and all other fine online retailers.

    Please support Acid Ted and this geat album – All proceeds go to Charity

  2. Any chance of setting up a bandcamp page to order this? I’d happily buy this off iTunes but I’d rather all the money went to charity rather than just 50% after Apple take their commission.

  3. Reblogged this on Methods of Dance and commented:
    Acid Ted has harnessed the power of music for a very good cause. Please support his most excellent efforts for charity.

  4. GOOD LUCK LAD. YOU DESERVE IT.
