The Vaudeville Mews presents...
Big Black Delta is a solo project of Mellowdrone vocalist/bassist Jonathan Bates. Bates began the project in 2010 after becoming frustrated with the logistics of a band.[2] Thanks to help from Alessandro Cortini, of Nine Inch Nails, he discovered the possibilities of producing music on a laptop and quickly set about building a new sound.[3] In 2013, Bates released his self-titled debut album, Big Black Delta. The album contained a mixture of fresh material and songs released on BBDLP1.[4] The album was released on Bates' own label, Masters of Bates, and was inspired by the soundtracks of Blade Runner and Solaris.[5] It was positively received by critics and was compared by one reviewer to music from Muse and The Joy Formidable.[6][7] Remixes of songs from the album have since come from Jimmy Edgar, John Tejada, Azari & III and Martyn.[8] The video for "Side of the Road" was directed by award-winning director Warren Kommers and was inspired by Bates' love of astrophysics and astronomy.
