about

These two alchemists crawl out of their caves right? Hemisphere-wise one is strictly northern, the other a southpaw. With gnarled and crooked fingers they sift grains, stir potions and boil liquids with transmutation in mind.
It’s a four-part mystery for the adventurous listener.

ONE: drift of centuries, wisdom lost and found, the raw rattle of grit rolling in a wellington boot.

TWO: the lonesome wail of giant land seals. Blubber creates a fatty reverb that melts into the sea.

THREE: the shaking of sharp electric fists in the face of mindless, directionless power

FOUR: delicate chopsticks, beautiful and brittle as lightbulb shavings.

Best leave a breadcrumb trail or something. This tape contains deep roots likely to bore through slack flesh into your very soul.
(Joe Murray)
