Magnetic Skies has presented the underground music scene with a beautiful piece which opens with an emotive piano chord structure and Simon Kent’s timid and vulnerable vocals, instantly ensuring that you will be taken on a one-hell-of-an emotionally choking journey. Although Magnetic Skies are indeed inspired by Chillout, Jazz-influenced bands such as Zero 7, the duo has something much darker to offer to their listeners and instead delve into the Alternative production of the critically-acclaimed Lamb.
