David J. Smith's The Stargazer's Assistant continue their exploration of worlds beyond earthly light with new album "Remoteness of Light".

This album reveals an expanded line-up for the group, featuring:

David J. Smith (Guapo, Cyclobe)
Percussion and sampled atmospheres
David J. Knight (Shock Headed Peters, UnicaZürn)
Treated guitars and FX
Michael J. York (Coil, Cyclobe)
Pipes, FX and field recordings

As with previous Stargazer's releases "Remoteness of Light" eschews and subverts genre identification, instead drawing the listener into an unfamiliar, richly atmospheric, and elemental sound world populated by bursts of freeform percussion, spectral melodies and seething, haunted airs.

The album is produced by Antti Uusimaki (Panic DHH, Circle, Tindersticks etc.) and The Stargazer's Assistant and was mastered by Helge Sten (Supersilent).
