Beautiful piano sound and a lovely melody


Track taken from the album 'There Can Be No True Beauty Without Decay' / HB50 - Released October 2013

Ian M Hazeldine records under the alias Antonymes, hailing from Hawarden, a small village in North Wales, whose most famous inhabitant was William Ewart Gladstone. He creates atmospheric melodies, using various pianos, celesta, strings, church organ and field recordings, and has had releases on Soundcolours, Cathedral Transmissions, Hidden Shoal, Time Released Sound and Rural Colours.

With a long standing interest in music making and active listening, Hazeldine works with any influences, from his surrounding landscape to the artists he has worked with. His compositions often take on a semi-improvised structure with accidental atmospheres used as a starting point. As well as his own projects, Hazeldine also works with Marconi Union's Richard Talbot, under the name Prospector. He also works as a graphic designer, film maker and photographer, having art directed many of the Hibernate releases including our critically acclaimed vinyl series, and has worked with many other artists and labels including Facture, Field Rotation and Olan Mill.

In late 2009 Antonymes released 'Beauty Becomes the Enemy of the Future' on Cathedral Transmissions of which the CD is now unavailable. Since then he has revisited the album, which has culminated a new release, 'There Can Be No True Beauty Without Decay'. Hazeldine's own reworkings are intertwined with those of friends Ian Hawgood, Isnaj Dui, Offthesky, Field Rotation, Wil Bolton, Spheruleus and James Banbury to create an album of captivating melancholy and beauty. The guest reworkings venture into other, darker territories, where one might be harder pressed to identify the original material.

The sleeve features beautiful images of the North Wales landscape by Richard Outram, fitting the music perfectly.

Enchanted Woods(마법의 숲)

Beneath the gentle moonlight,
In the forest where the night whispers,
Mystical lights dance upon the stream,
Guiding paths unseen even in dreams.

Sparkling mushrooms embroider the forest floor,
Lighting nature's magical lamps.
Leaves and branches rest in sacred silence,
Amidst the enchanting echoes of the night.

Fairies weave through the mist,
Leaving trails of stardust behind.
The forest conveys its ancient tales,
Brave and bold secrets of old.

The stream murmurs songs under the moonlight,
Echoes of the forest, where the heart truly belongs.
In the light of a magical call,
The soul finds rest, the spirit peace.

마법의 숲 (Enchanted Woods)

부드러운 달빛 아래,
밤이 속삭이는 숲속,
신비한 빛이 시냇물 위에서 춤추며,
꿈에서도 보지 못한 길을 안내하네.

반짝이는 버섯들이 숲속을 수놓고,
마법같은 자연의 등불을 밝히네.
잎과 가지는 거룩한 고요 속에,
밤의 매혹적인 울림 속에서.

요정들이 안개속을 헤앗고,
별빛 가루의 궤적을 남기며.
숲의 오래된 이야기들을 전하네,
용감하고 담대하게 고대의 비밀을.

시냇물이 달빛 아래 노래하며 속삭이고,
숲의 울림, 마음이 진정으로 속한 곳.
마법 같은 부름의 빛 속에서,
영혼은 안식을, 정신은 평온을 찾는다네.
