#ALT J AN AWESOME WAVE ALBUM RAR MAC#

In November 2012 the band were announced as the winners of the Mercury Prize for their album. They also did concert tour in the United States in December 2012 and performed at the Laneway Festival tour in Australia. The band have featured regularly on summer festivals, including Latitude, Bestival, Reading and Leeds, T in the Park, Green Man, Pukkelpop, and Lowlands. ДЄlt-J supported Wild Beasts in April 2012 and played a minor headlining tour around the United Kingdom and Ireland in October of that year. It received a score of 4.8/10 on Pitchfork. The album received some favourable reviews and was described as a 'captivating blend of insatiable grooves and profound poignancy'. Their debut album was released on in the UK, Europe, and Australia, and on 18 September 2012 in North America via Canvasback Music. An Awesome Wave was also produced by Charlie Andrew and compiled at Iguana Studios, Brixton, where the band recorded tracks during the studio's spare time. It was followed by ' Breezeblocks' which preceded their first album.

Their first 2012 release for Infectious Music was the triangle-shaped 10' ' Matilda'/' Fitzpleasure'. A 7' single containing ' Bloodflood' and 'Tessellate' was released by Loud and Quiet in October 2011. Their self-titled 4-track demo EP, в€†, was recorded with producer Charlie Andrew in London and featured the tracks ' Breezeblocks', 'Hand-Made', 'Matilda', and ' Tessellate'. Joe Newman with alt-J at The Empty Bottle, Chicago, in October 2012ДЄfter graduating, the band moved to Cambridge where they spent several months working on their music before signing a deal with Infectious Music in December 2011. The band's sound arose from living in student halls, where noise had to be kept to a minimum, so that they were unable to use bass guitars or bass drums. In their second year of studies, Newman showed Sainsbury some of his own songs and the pair began recording on GarageBand in their hall rooms with Sainsbury acting as producer. According to Newman, 'I basically went to art school to start a band.' Unger-Hamilton (younger brother of Ferdy, head of A&R for Polydor Records) studied English, the other three Fine Art. History 2007вЂ“10: Formation and early years ДЄlt-J (в€†) were formed when Gwilym (Gwil) Sainsbury (guitar/bass), Joe Newman (guitar/lead vocals), Augustus (Gus) Unger-Hamilton (keyboards/vocals) and Thomas Stuart (Thom Sonny) Green (drums) met at Leeds University in 2007. The cover art of the band's debut album An Awesome Wave shows an overhead view of the largest river delta in the world, where the Ganges River meets the Bay of Bengal in Bangladesh.ДЄlt-J were previously known as 'Daljit Dhaliwal' and then 'Films', but were later forced to change to 'alt-J' because an American band called ' The Films' already existed.

'Alt-J' comes from the key sequence used to generate the symbol О” on an Apple Mac computer: Alt+ J.

The band often makes references to triangles (for example, the song Tesselate mentions 'triangles are my favourite shape', and they make triangle symbols with their fingers during concerts ), which they say is just due to it being a visually appealing shape. The band's actual name is the triangle-shaped symbol О” (the capital Greek letter delta).
