about

"A rather wonderful and mysterious disc of recordings...this is really
too good to miss. If you liked Needle Into A Bug, owHH, The Hare And the Moon and various other creepy stuff I've done this will be right up your street" (Roger Linney, Reverb Worship)

"The music involves sinister synthesizer swathes, doleful, doomy and slow-moving. Bleats, birdsong, tolling bells and distorted voices occasionally intrude. It is all splendidly like the half-preserved soundtrack to a forgotten low-budget Nineteen Seventies (oc)cult film. To be enjoyed while perusing your well-thumbed, luridly-covered paperbacks of Blackwood, Machen and Hope Hodgson" (Mark Valentine, Wormwoodiana)

"The Northern Lighthouse Board is an actual non-governmental body in Scotland that deals with the maritime affairs surrounding a certain lighthouse. However, it is also a British project that seeks darkness rather than light. It is not clear who is behind this project, but that actually fits with the music, which is also quite mysterious. In 45 minutes, 18 tracks are reviewed, somewhere between synth wave, dark wave, drones and film music for the better horror film. The music seems to have been created mainly with synthesizer, field recordings and samples, but with that a varied dark and compelling sound is shown. You know how to hypnotize the music and drag it away from everyday reality. I think fans of The Heartwood Institute, Needle Into A Bug, SPK and Seabuckthorn know what to do with this. Again such a wonderful feature on the ever-surprising Reverb Worship label" (Jan Willem Broek, Het Schaduwkabinet, De Subjectivisten)

"The Northern Lighthouse Board is shaping up to be one of my faves of the year: deep and mysterious, full of found sounds, spooky soundscapes and goats!" (Andy Uzzell, Misophonia Records - "The Listener," Rusted Tone Recordings)

"Droning synthesizers cast long, sinister shadows throughout the entire album, as gothic church bells, panicked screams and other haunting samples emerge here and there. In fact, this album is so spectral; I would not be surprised if real examples of electronic voice phenomenon were hidden in the mix. If you love soundtracks to imaginary horror films as much as I do, then you really need to give this album a listen on a still, moonless night" (Keith Hadad, Record Crates United)

""A shimmering, haunting collection...excellent pieces for rumination and reflection" (Issues Magazine)
