In a musical landscape that’s filled with post-dubstep, Float Fall creates something that refers to it, yet, at the same time has nothing to do with it. Gifted musicians and mood makers. Readers, we’re sharing this pearl with you. But see to it, because it’s precious. (Cutting Edge) - Cutting Edge

Float Fall was by far the most friendly act at the Rock Rally. Again, the two band members neatly arranged their songs and again, the crowd stood silent. For eye candy, ‘Everybody’s Gotta Learn Sometimes’, their cover of The Korgis’s hit single, was accompanied by a French horn. A beautiful band, Float Fall. And a beautiful song, ‘Someday’, which in the heart reminds us of ‘Somebody That I Used To Know’ by Gotye. (Humo, review semi-finals Humo’s Rock Rally ‘12) - Sanoma Pulishers - Humo Magazine

The day started out strong with the fairy-like band Float Fall (****) This duo from Leuven sounded exactly as their name woud make us expect: floaty with a sense of past summer. The autumn mood was intensified as they started out with a - I kid you not - hunting horn. Foxes all around Brussels made their escape, but we remained mesmerized.

Bio
Minimally arranged dream pop and electronica with maximum effect. Float Fall in just a couple of words. A duo that succeeds in taming silence and building tension with what is only subtly suggested.
Float Fall delivers the soundtrack for lonely walks through desolate streets and long car rides along apple orchards or snow landscapes with a polar fox popping up every once in a while. Modest. Two voices. Rozanne Descheemaeker’s voice sometimes reminds one of a young Feist, and quietly settles next to the hoarse vocals of Ruben Lefever.
Float Fall’s songs make one move into another world, one without an obvious description, but a good place to stay nonetheless. A place where fairy tales exist. Coming home, melodical, melancholical. But above all, Float Fall delivers beautifully arranged music to sink away with. Until dreams and reality melt together.
