“a juxtaposition of the Bacharach-soaked, electronics and that somewhat sinister Bad Seeds sound”

Dreamfield were formed 2000 in London UK, by former Mojave 3 and Sing-Sing pianist Poppy Gonzalez and London songwriter Gregg McKella and later joined by Amy Tucker (The Whims) when the band relocated to Boston MA. Their mixture of 'dub, trip-hop, psychedelia & cheesy latin 60s music' won them some hardcore fans and they headed the mp3.com Alt/Leftfield charts for long periods back in those early days of digital music (which with the recently adapted new download rules, would have seen then at the top of the real world charts today!). Dreamfield had a 'penchant for long brooding notes of an undefined nature' and dreamy female vocals, which drifted over a hynotic beats/organic combination, making for a intoxicating coctail that was distinctly their own.

The band released two critically acclaimed eps independently and played some interesting live performances including a televised live performance in the Charlie Chaplin Museum of Modern Art Estonia on their return to Europe, before calling it a day.

Press Quotes

“Dreamfield are one of the most eclectic groups out there; and when I say 'out there' I mean that in every sense of the phrase. They are not your average band by any sense of the word 'average'.”
— Random Reviewers - Out in Leftfield

“Dreamfield sound like Portishead with pop sensibilities, but in a good way, ie, an ear for a tune. This could be something to do with the involvement of Poppy Gonzalez, ex member of indie folksters Mojave 3. Sticking with songwriting credibility and layering it with brooding production, discordant horns, scratching and hairisingly dirty drums was a very good idea indeed. It's backed by another track and some good mixes.”
— BBC Collective

“'Christopher's Dream' - that single's erstwhile, ultra-spooked follow up - is as memorable a first snog as you could hope for. They have an unnerving knack for playing dub-by grooves with the sweetest of vocal nectar and are a bloody smart trio with both talent to burn and the kind of creative, independent attitude of which we will always heartily approve.”
— Tim Peacock, Whiperin & Hollerin’

“A pop band with an interest in soul-searching jazz, cabaret pop and the Chemical Brothers. A juxtaposition of the Bacharach-soaked, electronics and that somewhat sinister Bad Seeds sound. 'Christopher's Dream' in its original version and in two stellar remixes beckons for headphones, late nights and wine. 'Alive' burns with a crawling intensity.”
— FAC 193’

“... a soft acoustic guitar plays in the background whilst some smooth synth sounds warble across the airways, along with a mystifying woman singing about Chrissy boy... Enchanting and captivating, 'Christopher’s Dream' is quite magic..”
— Alt Music UK’

“At 4 o'clock on a Sunday morning, halfway between reality and your subconcious, there's a place where Dreamfield are on the decks, whispering in your ear and messing with your mind.”
