5.0 out of 5 stars Epic yet subdued soundscapes, 11 Dec 2007
By Mr. M. Purdy (Manchester, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This album has to be on the best of 2007 lists of any discerning music lover. Epic 45 are a duo from the rural midlands who create sublime soundscapes with a mix of ethereal guitars, both acoustic and electric, and atmospheric field recordings.
'May Your Heart Be The Map' is a slow burner that really gets under the skin. Many of the self-recorded samples hint, along with the song titles, at the purity of simpler days. Acoustic guitars create lilting backdrops for an FX-pedal frenzy that is epic, yet strangely subdued.
The whole album bathes you in a warm, summery haze that transports you to open fields and memories of childhood picnics. It is fantastic.
If you like the Cocteaus, Mogwai and gentle electronica, this is a must purchase. I just wish the back catalogue wasn't so hard to find at a reasonable price...

5.0 out of 5 stars epic45 restore your faith in music, 3 Mar 2008
By M. Melander (Runcorn, Cheshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
For an album featured in The Word magazine's Top Ten albums of 2007, 'may your heart be the map' seems to have escaped the hype that accompanies so much of today's music.

As the liner notes state, the record was 'written and recorded by epic45 at home' and the quaint innocence of the children's voices on a couple of the tracks echo this.

The sequence of the tracks seems to echo a British summer's day from dawn to dusk with 'winterbirds' possibly the stand out track. Gorgeous guitars, mandolin, FX, field recordings, hints of Blade Runner, Mazzy Star.

With ease the best record I've bought for a long time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Where is it?, 11 Dec 2009
Included in Word magazine "best of decade", and remains unavailable.

And the music industry wonders why it's going down the toilet...
