Melbourne, Australia (2003 – present)
The Peach Tree is the independent artistry of musician/writer/producer Angus Maiden, from Melbourne, Australia. All his work is released for free under a Creative Commons license. In 2010 he created his own netlabel, Tribal Dancing Kid, giving a voice to bizarre music produced by strange minds. For the highest quality files, The Peach Tree’s latest and remastered works can be found at The Peach Tree’s page on Bandcamp, and a hefty back catalogue can be found at The Internet Archive.
The latest album is titled A Scrapbook For Glue Junkies. Why? Well apart from sounding cool, it’s recognising what has become a signature of The Peach Tree sound: disparate styles and genres seemingly “pasted into a scrapbook” of an album. Normally as Angus gets close to completing an album a theme begins to take shape from the lyrics. “A Scrapbook” (recorded and released at 96Khz, 24bit audio, close to the best you can get digitally) contains a theme about theming albums that sound like scrapbooks. Available for FREE here.
Released in the first half of 2011, is the ambitiously titled “Children of Cain, Night-Loving Creatures, Prepare Thyselves for 2012” is a concept album that maintains Angus’ knack for changing moods and genres, with complex themes and subject matter. The title is expressed thus to attract people of a Dark or slightly “off-kilter” cadre. It is, of course, free; yet at the download site at Bandcamp there is a pay-as-you-wish, no-minimum system in place.

Hey. Getting caught up on the last two albums now, 'children...' and 'scrapbook...' I'm sure I'll enjoy them both. Thanks for making all this interesting and weird music. It's really a treat.

cos when i wrote that album i was watching it and it's a damn cool pic. it syncs well with that particular album too: frenetic melodies, fun and energised, but with an undercurrent of almost absurd seriousness, in which the humour plays a good role as a fun facade for the deeper questions raised.

The Peach Tree is like Johnny Greenwood and Thom Yorke in one package, if only Radiohead wasn't fronted by Yorke-- But by Tom Waits.
