Tracing Arcs is a duo from England, formed in the mid 90's. The members are Fran Kapelle (vocal/lyrics) and Paul H. Addie (keyboards/ programming/biscuit tin lids). Both have a genuine background in the English world of alternative music, headlined at leading venues in the UK, written for theatres in London and Milan, and worked with artists such as; An Emotional Fish, Mary Coughlan, Plaid, Ian Shaw etc. 'Eye See You Too (Remixes & Forbidden Fruit)' is a follow up to last year´s release 'Eye See You' on the German netlabel iD.EOLOGY. It features remixes of songs from some of the finest artists in the netlabel scene, as well as Tracing Arcs themselves.
According to popular belief, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. To some it is all about a slick, symmetrical surface, an immaculate appearance. Others find beauty in moments of truthfulness when they recognize themselves in their counterparts. On their iD.EOLOGY debut Tracing Arcs combine both aspects into a thrilling aesthetic overall experience. As soon as the first notes hit your ears, a film noir starts rolling in your head. Classy triphop beats, elaborate jazz-chords and deep upright basses skillfully sketch out a closed-off world in subtle shades of black. With the dark attraction of a femme fatale, the nuanced and seductive voice of Fran Kapelle enters the scene, inevitably putting the listener under her spell. With every word of the sometimes cryptic, sometimes promising lyrics he keeps falling for her further and without notice, he's become a detective in his own case, delving deeper and deeper into a secret that lies hidden within.
