Watery tunes

Wilson Tanner come to shore with a new album of floating melodies, lightly salted. Throwing electroacoustic conventions overboard, Andrew Wilson (Andras) and John Tanner (Eleventeen Eston) recorded this new work aboard a 1950s riverboat with a resourceful array of weatherproof electronic instruments and a long extension lead. These eight compositions pull in a by-catch of maritime folklore; of Siren and Selkie, Seagull and engine oil slick. A change of course from their debut album 69 (Growing Bin Records, 2016), the ambient temperature drops as II casts out to sea in uncertain weather and returns to the safe harbours of Port Phillip Bay. 

The seafarers head out to My Gull’s poised optimism. The birds watch but do they listen? By the arrival of Loch and Key, the shoreline has dissolved completely, the boat floating in serene infinity as the rest of the world spins. Conditions soon take a treacherous turn on Killcord Pts I-III - a 12 minute odyssey that battens down the hatches as these sailors eye merciless waves and blinding ocean spray, jointly channelling Berlin-school electronics and sea legs. In the aftermath, the waterlogged bleeps of Idle survey the damage as our parched crew sound the distress signal and ultimately descend into delirium. 

Known for navigating individual courses as solo musicians, Wilson and Tanner’s collective storytelling is saturated in detail, buoying between tension and harmony. II modestly stands as some of both artists’ most accomplished material.

"Out of the crystal clear and warm cosmic perennial waters comes forth another sparkling jewel from Anahita (Tara Burke (Fursaxa) and Helena Espvall (Espers)). Two elves dancing amidst gnarled branches of ancient trees and fragrant herbs, concocting a magical potion for the mind of floating medieval cello spheres and melancholic ceremonial madrigals under the blinking eye of a pale moon and far off constellations of shooting stars."
Bart De Paepe, founder of the belgian tape label Sloow Tapes

How can one attain immortality? Certainly not by conquering death at some point. To have to die is an inevitable part of being human. But nevertheless something of us can live on after we have died. Be it in our children or in our music or our lyrics. And an essential reason to publish my lyrics and my music on SoundCloud and other music portals is exactly that: To continue to be heard and read, even if I have been dead for a long time.  

Lyrics in English:

Just don't want to be forgotten

Lightning has been frozen for a long time
Hands remain untouched
Ideas lost forever
Bodies are tensioned in concrete

A drop that never arrives
A stone that only falls
Clouds that stand completely still
A long-sunk tent

Tones without sounds
Gestures without style

Miracles are betrayed
Wizards unmasked

The poetry goes to its knees

Just don't want to be forgotten
Melting in dust and sand
If only one tone, one word remains
Can I go in peace

Stories that stay on file
Poems swallowed by the wind
A shadow man must suffer forever
A lyric was never printed

Love without echo
Warmness without target
Dreams remain foams
Feelings get cold

No more sun sets 
No low tide becomes high tide

Fools without tongues
Witches disgraced long ago

Poetry goes to its knees

Just don't want to be forgotten
Melting in dust and sand
If only one tone, one word remains
Can I go in peace


Deutscher Originaltext:

Will nur nicht vergessen werden

Blitze sind schon längst erfroren
Hände bleiben unberührt
Ideen für immer verloren
Körper Beton-zugeschnürt

Ein Tropfen, der nie ankommt
Ein Stein, der nur noch fällt
Wolken, die ganz still stehen
Ein längst eingesunk`nes Zelt

Töne ohne Klänge
Gesten ohne Stil

Wunder sind verraten
Zauberer entlarvt

Die Poesie geht in die Knie

Will nur nicht vergessen werden
In Staub und Sand zergehen
Wenn nur ein Ton, ein Wort verbleibt
Kann ich in Frieden gehen

Geschichten, die in Akten bleiben
Gedichte, die der Wind verschluckt
Ein Schattenmensch muß ewig leiden
Ein Liedtext wurde nie gedruckt

Liebe ohne Echo
Wärme ohne Ziel
Träume bleiben Schäume
Gefühle werden kühl

Keine Sonne geht mehr unter 
Keine Ebbe wird zur Flut

Narren ohne Zungen
Hexen längst entehrt

Die Poesie geht in die Knie

Will nur nicht vergessen werden
In Staub und Sand zergehen
Wenn nur ein Ton, ein Wort verbleibt
Kann ich in Frieden gehen

Will nur nicht vergessen werden (Just won`t be forgotten)

Will Nur Nicht Vergessen Werden (Just don`t want to be forgotten) (Engl. Lyrics in the Intro)

Aşık Veysel was born in 1894. He caught smallpox at the age of seven, often a deadly disease. He survived the illness, but lost eyesight of the left eye. After an accident, he lost sight of the right eye as well, which left him virtually blind. This is when, with his father's encouragement, he took possession of a saz and started playing it. He was instructed by a friend of his father, who taught him works of the great "aşık"s such as Pir Sultan Abdal, Karacaoğlan, Dertli, and Rühsati.

Neşet Ertaş - Yolcu

Bir anadan dünyaya gelen yolcu
Görünce dünyaya gönül verdin mi
Kimi böyü kim böcek kimi kurt
marak edip heçbirini sordun mu
Bunlar neden nedenini sordun mu

İnsan ölür ama uruhu ölmez
Bunca mahlukat var heç biri gülmez
Cehennem azabı zordur çekilmez
Azap çeken hayvanları gördün mü

Insandan doganlar insan olurlar
Hayvandan doganlar hayvan olurlar
Hepiside bu dünyaya gelirler
Ana haktır sen bu sirra erdin mi

Vade tekmil olup ömrün dolmadan
Emanetçi emaneti almadan
Ömrüyün baginin gülü solmadan
Varıp bir canana ikrar verdin mi
varıp bir cananın kulu oldun mu

Garip bülbül gibi feryat ederiz
Cehalet(cahiller) elinde küskün kederiz
Hep yolcuyuz böyle geldik böyle gideriz
Dünya senin vatanın mi yurdun mu?

Neşet Ertaş, (1938 [1], Çiçekdağı, Kırşehir - 25 Eylül 2012, İzmir), Türk halk ozanı ve halk müziği şarkıcısı. Abdallık geleneğinin son büyük temsilcisi. Yaşar Kemal, Ertaş'ı "bozkırın tezenesi" olarak adlandırmıştır.

Three emotional years in the making, Be With and Efficient Space finally present Steve Hiett’s Girls In The Grass. Pressed alongside the long awaited reissue of his one-shot masterpiece Down On The Road By The Beach, these ten balearic soul instrumentals are of equal necessity; unrivalled beauty rescued from the fashion photographer-guitarist’s Paris Tapes (1986-1997). 

While recordings unintended for release should often be approached with caution, this is a rare case of unheard material being assembled as an indispensable and coherent piece. Girls In The Grass is something super special. The light and shadow that defines Hiett’s music is arguably more compelling here. It speaks to us in a language that feels profound, yet entirely comforting and familiar. 

Girls In The Grass reintroduces Hiett’s languid electric blues boogie, crafted on Saturday afternoons with fellow art director Simon Kentish. Kentish would cook, pour some wine and then utilise his arsenal of technology. He’d dial up a chugging rhythm, together with some ambient pads or keyboard textures, and anchor the weightless gauze of Hiett’s six-stringed touch. 

Hiett’s guitar sings with the same clean, crisp tone as Down On The Road, animated by a carefree weekend groove. Unlike his defining album which was boiled under pressure, these subsequent sessions have all the time in the world. The naïve melodies chart a missing link between Vini Reilly’s ventures into electronica and Booker T, sounding like sun-warped takes on wordless, fractured non-hits from his heroes The Beach Boys. 

Remastered for public pleasure by Simon Francis, these private moments are adorned with Hiett’s singular photography and feature typically idiosyncratic liner notes from Mikey IQ Jones.

Steve Hiett - Are These My Memories? (ES011/BEWITH062LP)

Hatis Noit and Kevin Richard Martin aka The Bug share their paranormal first cut 'After the Storm' via The Wire, ahead of their debut live performance at Le Guess Who? Festival in Utrecht on November 10.

The pair first joined forces during a Late Junction live collaboration session last year, resulting in four extraordinary pieces broadcast on BBC Radio 3 in December 2018. 

“Hatis Noit’s impressionistic approach, tonal brilliance and kaleidoscopic spectrum, evoked voices I had loved in the past. Whether it echoed the mood of Les Mystere des Voix Bulgares or the beauty of Liz Frazer, it even navigated the eerie spaciousness of Japanese Gagaku traditions that I enjoy so much, so I just knew I was happy to collaborate with her, as she had outgrown her influences and blossomed into an extraordinary talent.

'After the Storm', was a track we first sketched at the initial radio session but was later fully formed in my Berlin studio. In these times of climatic turbulence and socio-political upheaval, its deep seismic sonic flow and haunting melodies are a hymn to the stranded, offering comfort to those in need of solace.” — Kevin Richard Martin

The meeting of Hatis Noit’s bewitching vocal explorations and Kevin Richard Martin’s sacramental synthesis of sound for a world exclusive live performance is sure to lift their respective virtues to perplexing new levels.

“As a solo vocalist and voice artist, I’d always dreamed of floating and being drowned in a beautiful sonic storm. And then I met Kevin Martin.” — Hatis Noit
