A Race Of Angels - Golden

Golden video.
A Race of Angels are a mysterious lot. A search for images on their MySpace page gets you a clip art sun with “Today is Sunny” in dot matrix typeface, a black and white image of a man holding a microphone and the cover art of their first album Broadcast No 1. The website doesn’t offer an obligatory “photos” section, just a link to some tour dates and audio files for the entirety of their first release. “It’s more about the music really,” says the group’s frontman and primary songwriter Yeofil. “I’m trying to communicate something from the pure point of view of music first and foremost.”
A Race of Angels’s sound is built around Yeofil’s songwriting and round but gentle voice, with Te’amir on drums, Gailybird on bass and a dash of Ainjoy on saxophone. “The sun is my inspiration,” says Yeofil. “Living in England, you are in the grey gloom for most of the year, so you really appreciate the sunny days.” Despite relocating to the always-beaming climate of LA, Yeofil clearly is still in touch with the English gloom, singing over dark electronic textures or effects-laden guitars and keys, the beats and heavy layers adding up to moody, romantic babymaking jams or circular, lonely lullabies. At the core of all that sound, though, are solid, thoughtful songs—Yeofil writes unplugged and alone on a guitar. “It’s always spontaneous,” he says. “I never really know what is going to go on, and that’s how I like to keep it.”
