Release of 2024 by Dronarivm / Fonodroom.
CD comes as digipak, limited edition of 100 copies.
'Inscriptions' is an album inspired by the melancholy romance of autumn,
the reflection of leaves in the rippling surface of a lake, crumbling
architectural facades, and faded ink scripts on parchment.
The album began with a collection of environmental sounds I recorded in
Tallinn, Estonia back in the autumn of 2011, during a residency at the
Estonian Artists' Association. These field recordings focus in on the
quiet, everyday sounds of streets, parks, a lake and a town square.
I lived with these sounds for some time, before working on the album. In
spring 2013, I began to record the instrumental sounds. I started
working with loops I lifted from the quietest sections of old dusty
charity shop records - the sounds of piano, strings and harp,
half-buried in hiss and crackle. I re-pitched, stretched, edited and
processed these loops with guitar pedals and laptop effects. Then over
this bed of loops, I recorded layers of digitally treated instrumental
parts, played on acoustic guitar, piano and analogue and digital synths.
I finished mixing the tracks in autumn 2013.
