Quiet Village is British duo Joel Martin and Matt Edwards. Influenced by Italian film soundtracks, BBC library music, disco edits, acid rock, vintage soul and easy listening, they meld the unlikeliest of elements including bluesy guitar, chamber strings, air-raid sirens, shuffling breakbeats, and even flutes and seagull cries. Their debut album "Silent Movie" was released in 2008. Instead of asking who Quiet Village is, we might begin by asking what, or better, where. Naggingly familiar, it sounds like the name of a place glimpsed in a film, or perhaps a dream.
