Lathe Cuts on Request -- £20

milk eyed sigh, are a duo from Preston in which carl (powders) spins microscopic sampled fragments into buggy, staccato melodies that, when an almost-ambient bed of unlikely tones and textures is formed, are then freely and playfully responded to on the kit by cam (ex-violence grass band)


The debut EP ‘Dog Verses’ is an exercise in improvisation in which the duo build singular collage worlds using live turntable sampling techniques with effects, countered by sporadic kit percussion in a rapid-fire conversational manner.

“We wanted to make something from loops and a drum kit that reflected where our perspectives meet. Something steady but constantly disrupted, like life. Without any real regard for tonality and timing, just a raw expression in the moment”

Dog Verses was recorded live at Robinwood Mill in Todmorden in early Spring 2024. For this release, guitars and bass were overdubbed later at our home studio in Preston.

Milk Eyed Sigh - CEX Bag

An accompanying soundtrack by Preston Field Audio intended for active listening via handheld audio guides at the installation artwork ‘Fountain, 1937’ by Keith Harrison. 
 
The composition consists of 7 movements presented as a long-form narrative for the on-site audio guides. While enjoying the soundtrack listeners are encouraged to be aware of external sounds within their immediate environment including nature sounds, construction and other members of the public engaging with the artwork. Experiment by interacting with the audio guide, holding the device near and far from the ears, performing a uniquely individual rendition of the soundtrack whilst moving through the installation. Headphones with 3.5mm input jack are also compatible for a more accurate studio representation of the soundtrack audio. The audio can also be found on the Fountain 1937 web page on the English Heritage website for playback on your mobile device.
 
Musically, the soundtrack draws parallels between prominent themes of labour and luxury. Field recordings are placed in measured dialogue with musical arrangements with an ambiguity between environmental and instrumental sounds. Key sound sources include Merry Hill Shopping Centre situated on the former site of the Earl of Dudley's Round Oak Steelworks, Baggeridge Country Park on the site of the Black Country’s last operational coal mine and Lady Dudley's basement plunge pool at Witley Court. 
 
Electronic loops and pulses and recordings of collier’s voices taken from archival footage were played back on bluetooth speakers placed around the once abundant and now derelict rooms of Witley Court. The positioning of the speakers within the various spaces inevitably shapes the stereo field, creating claustrophobic, dissonant new harmonics and forming an exclusive relationship between the music and the building. Listen for the bells of the baroque Great Witley Parish Church chime against passages of ghostly drones recorded amidst the ruins of the magnificent ballroom.
