More Info

Erstes Vinyl für den field-recording Spezialisten MURMER, intelligent zusammengeführte, ansonsten unbearbeitete Aufnahmen eines Gartens und seiner Bestandteile in London, zudem wurde Akusmen eines alten Computerventilators & einer kaputten Perlenkette umgesetzt. Aufwendig handgestaltetes Cover mit verklebtem Stoff & Haar !! "The man behind MURMER is the US-American field recording specialist PATRICK MCGINLEY (who lives in France now), who’s also responsible for the great 'Framework' radio programme on London’s RESONANCE 104.4FM. The two pieces on this "Drone" captivate the listener with intelligently assembled and multi-layered recordings of a garden in London (i.e. tree bark, water, footsteps, a creaking gate), processer and ventilation sounds of an old computer, and beads of a broken necklace. All sounds were left un-processed. Combined, they take you on a trip into an other world of low drones and high-pitched noises, crunching and gritting microsounds, surprising cut-ups, all very near and clear...

CLEAR VINYL, HAND-ASSEMBLED COVERS WITH PIECES OF A SCARF, SCRAPS OF A NOTEBOOK AND HAIR OF PATRICK MCGINLEY!" [press release]
