MARK GARDENER (RIDE) and A SHORELINE DREAM Unveil ‘Written In Dust’ Video, Showcasing New ‘Whitelined’ Album

Riding the beautiful wave of co-creation with RIDE frontman MARK GARDENER, Colorado postpunk / shoegaze trailblazers A SHORELINEDREAM present 'Written In Dust', a reverie-laced trip experience from their new 'Whitelined' album (their eighth to date), featuring Gardener on vocals. As with the lead track'Everything Turns', this entails a full-on collaboration (in co-writing, recording and co-production) between Gardener and A Shoreline Dream frontman Ryan Policky.

This release gets extra props from MARK KRAMER (Urge Overkill, Bongwater, Shimmy Records) for mastering and the record's preparation for vinyl production. As for the new video, Ryan Policky (also a horror film producer) achieves his quest of "creating a visual representation to a dream state about how memories are clouded by technology and blurred moments of feeling abandoned and forgotten".

Mark Gardener shares, "Ryan wouldn't have had a clue what was going to happen until I got the tunes from him. That was the starting point... For me, that's kind of perfect because I like to live in the present. Obviously I love being in Ride, but that is also tricky because we have a catalogue, so we have to kind of live in the past sometimes, as well as being present. So I actually love being in my OX4 Sound studio, which I created a few years ago, and to be sent music like this. This was a real treat and it's an honor to be tasked with trying to sit and marry words with with music in a way that hopefully feels that they've always been there and have always been meant to be there".
