Soulsavers

Soulsavers are Rich Machin and Ian Glover, a pair of English producers/remixers behind the critically acclaimed album It's Not How Far You Fall, It's the Way You Land, released in 2007. Chief collaborator for the project was renowned gravel-voiced singer Mark Lanegan, who also is credited with co-writing five of the album's songs with the pair.

The release has surprised and delighted many Lanegan fans who seem content to consider the record a near-solo album to add to his considerable body of work, both as a solo artist, and as part of the Screaming Trees, Queens of the Stone Age and various collaborations including the 2005 album with Isobel Campbell, Ballad of the Broken Seas.

The abum in question also features minor walk-on roles from Jimi Goodwin of Doves, Will Oldham aka Bonnie "Prince" Billy and PW Long. Opening track "Revival" has received considerable radio airplay.

The album has been favourably compared to Death in Vegas' 1999 work The Contino Sessions, which has a similarly atmopheric feel and also features a number of guest vocalists, including Iggy Pop and Dot Allison.

Another acclaimed (but less well known) album Tough Guys Don't Dance was released in 2003. This album was a collaboration with Josh Haden, lead singer of the band Spain & son of jazz legand Charlie Haden.

Machin & Glover are also making headway as film score composers, with a portfolio of work that includes 2 feature documentaries for the GNN group.
