ELLIOTT SMITH From A Basement On The Hill CD 2010

Elliott Smith has been a patron saint of the indie scene since his days helming Portland heroes Heatmiser. As a solo artist, Smith led a revolution of home four-trackers, from Beck to Cat Power, out of the bedroom and into the studio, where Smith's fondness for Beatlesque melody led to some of the most beautifully
orchestrated pop of the last decade. From A Basement On The Hill is Smith's final recording and finds Smith returning to an edgier, guitar-driven sound, alongside his trademark heart-rending balladry. From a Basement on the Hill was originally released on October 19, 2004, on ANTIRecords and is now proudly reissued by Kill Rock Stars--now the home of all of Elliott's indie releases.
Elliott had been working on the record at the time of his death. Elliott's family hired producer Rob Scharpf (Either/Or, XO, Figure 8) and Joanna Bolme to mix and produce the album.
