Daylight Storms

Air Formation hail from Sussex in the south of England. They are Matt Bartram
(vocals, guitar), Ben Pierce (bass), Richard Parks (keyboards), James Harrison (drums) &
Phil Macy (guitar). The band has been creating uplifting song based space-rock since late
1999.
Born out of a love for Flying Saucer Attack and the likes of Spacemen 3 and
Jesus & Mary Chain Air Formation create songs awash with heavily delayed guitar
and feedback, interwoven with keyboard drones and whispered vocals. Over the past
7 years the band has released two albums Ends in Light (Drive-In Records 2002) and
Stay Inside/Feel Everything (Clairecords 2004,) alongside numerous other releases.
The turning point for the band came in 2005 when they recorded the beautiful 57
Octaves Below EP with legendary producer Pat Collier (The House of Love). As well
as being their first recording with an expanded line up it was also their first release on
UK label Club AC30 and was extremely well received….. “57 Octaves Below is simply
astonishing, as each track could hold its own as a formal "A side" among any peers both
past and present. Remarkable. 9/10” Drowned In Sound.
In the summer of 2006 the band returned to Pat Collier and recorded the new album
