Text Adventure is the collaborative product of music machine manipulator David Roy and gentle crooner Steven Scott from Glasgow, Scotland. David's gentle folk guitars, computer game influenced casio keyboard lines, electronic beat programming and experimental noise, are carried along by Steven's bittersweet vocals about love and murder. The result has been described as Happy-sad tiny epics, bitter-sweet and lovely, all rolled into one.

  "The Golden Portion" is the duo's debut full-length release, following 2004's critically acclaimed MP3-only EP "Fantastic Disaster" on Skylab Operations' sister-label, Observatory (www.observatoryonline.org). With a gentle blend of guitars and electronics, gently pushing Steven's vocals out in front, "The Golden Portion" takes the listener on a 10-track trip through the land of heartbreak and murder, of which fans of everyone from The Postal Service to Jon Anderson w/ Vangelis can appreciate.
