  • Solar Bears, a duo consisting of Irish producers John Kowalski and Rian Trench, will release their first album next month on London's Planet Mu. Entitled She Was Coloured In, Solar Bears' first full-length betrays a love of all things keyboard-related from the '70s and '80s, especially prog, Kosmische and synth pop. Their sound is retro and tinged with psychedelia, as suggested by titles like "Neon Colony" and "Primary Colours at the Back of My Mind." She Was Coloured In will be preceded by an EP called Inner Sunshine, due for release next week. Tracklist 01. Forest of Fountains 02. Children of the Times 03. Twin Stars 04. She Was Coloured In 05. Head Supernova 06. Crystalline (Be Again) 07. Cub 08. Hidden Lake 09. The Quiet Planet 10. Solarization 11. Division 12. Primary Colours at the Back of My Mind 13. Dolls 14. Neon Colony 15. Perpetual Meadow Planet Mu will release Solar Bears' She Was Coloured In on September 20th, 2010.
