BERRY, KEITH — The Golden Boat

"Keith Berry is a sound artist based in London. His 'The Golden Boat' consists of four pieces all quite consistent in style and sound quality to the point that they form, not unlike my own Un Peu de Neige Salie, a unified whole. Keith's work is very musical and beautiful, evolving at a slow pace, like the passing of clouds. It has a strong spatial quality, especially on headphones, and uses a variety of sound materials ranging from concrete to instrumental to electronic. And this is where my ability to describe it ends: i'm afraid i'm not capable of a description that does Keith's music justice - the only way to deal with it is to listen to it, and all that is left to for me do is to strongly recommend it."
