Hey all - hope all good!
Just a quick one to say ‘the humble bee - lichen cloak on a white stone’ the first release on my new label ‘quiet details’ - where each release is an artist’s interpretation of that phrase, is out now.
Everyone who’s heard from me so far knows how much I love this album from one of my favourite artists ever - the humble bee is the wonderful creation of the endlessly creative mind that is Craig Tattersall (Cotton Goods, The Boats, Famous Boyfriend, The Remote Viewer and many more).
This album is the latest in the continued evolution of someone who has the unlimited ability to find the most beautiful fragments of sound, building evolving soundscapes that gradually shift from one world to another.
Deconstructed electro-acoustic tape loops, field recordings, deep drones and atmospheres all meld together into an album that moves from beautiful minimalism to dense layered textures.
Available as glass-mastered CDs with bespoke packaging and presenting the long-form version.
We love extended listening and feel it is a perfect way to experience the music (download also provided)
The individual tracks are available for purchase on on Bandcamp too.
The artwork was made in collaboration with Craig, with colours chosen to represented the feel of music as we felt it.
Paper-making, natural dyes, mixed media and analogue photography combined to make the final image.
A separate high-quality print is included with the physical album.
Digital half price until 22 Feb
Much love
Alex
Glad you’re enjoying it :)x
