Hailing from Belgium, Arches is a new project that brings together two studio talents; Seba (Moonlight Matters) and Jochen (Sound of Stereo). Well known for their solo achievements, together Arches are an exciting new act, ready and primed to take centre stage.

Early support has come from The Magician, who on Magic Tape Thirty Three introduced their soon to be released debut track ‘There’s A Place’ (originally titled ‘Higher’). Not content with just one play, The Magician personally requested new Arches’ music, premiering ‘Hurtin’ on Magic Tape Thirty Four.

This summer, the pair released a sublime new work from an unlikely source, reworking Whitney Houston’s ‘It’s Not Right But It’s Okay’. Bringing the emotion to the fore, Arches stamped their soon-to-be signature sounds across Whitney’s pitched down vocals. Once premiered by Earmilk, national radio play followed across Europe, North America, Australia and from BBC Radio 1.

Taking their sound to the stage, Winter 2013 will see Arches perform both DJ and live shows joined by vocalist and songwriter, Gustaph (Hercules & The Love Affair). The performances will be a showcase of Arches’ productions and remixes with live vocals from Gustaph. With their debut appearance confirmed at Belgium’s ‘Play Festival’, and their debut single release due to drop on Decon / Columbia early next year, Arches are set to bring joy to dancefloors worldwide
