The band is actually called but due to someone else using that name on soundclick, we had to settle for "The Bureau Sounds" on Soundclick...:( The Bureau is Brett Price and Matthew Daniels. The Bureau produce instrumentals ranging from funk to jazz to almost classical guitar tracks. Their sound has come from many years of listening to some of the greatest guitarists and song writers of all time Simon & Garfunkel, Clapton, Hendrix, Led Zeppelin, Roy Orbison, The Beach Boys, Van Morrison, to the Waifs, Jeff Lang and Brian Eno (to name but a few). Brett is the musical genius who writes the majority of the music on his guitar using all kinds of weird guitar tunings and capos for his guitar; he also produces the bass-lines. Matt is the engineer/producer and creates all the beats, synth-lines and string arrangements, as well as doing the final arrangements of the guitars. The Bureau's sound consists of multi-layered acoustic guitar with synth or string arrangements, bass, and accompanied by drums and other percussion. The guitar and bass is all played by Brett and the synth, strings and drum programming is done by Matt, post-recording on a computer.
