Composed for the new Netflix hit series Katla, Icelandic multi-instrumentalist and composer Högni Egilsson has created ‘Sensus Terrae (Voice of Katla)’; a sonic exploration bringing the heart of the volcano to life. 

Using seismic data, the renowned artist, formerly of GusGus, has teamed up with scientist Kristín Jónsdóttir, lead actor-singer GDRN and the Cantoque Ensemble, creating something otherworldly. 

"Inside Katla, there are eight active areas that have their own earthquake frequency. We took these frequencies and transform them into musical expressions. The volcanic activity is actually a conversation between these eight areas – eight voices inside Katla.”

Stop what you’re doing, put on your headphones, and let the volcano Katla sing you the song of her people.

German sound pioneer Hans-Joachim Roedelius and American composer Tim Story join Erased Tapes as Roedelius & Story with their new album 4 Hands out February 25, 2022.

4 Hands, an intimate and surreal musical conversation on the piano, is an example of all the warm yet otherworldly beauty that can come from approaching a shared love for a singular instrument from overlapping directions.

Recorded sequentially but on one and the same grand piano, Roedelius laid down a few impromptu piano études in May 2019 whilst visiting his transatlantic friend Story. Tim then learned all their intricate phrasings to add his own parts in the following months. 4 Hands encapsulates rippling minimalistic patterns and delicate, ghostly interactions with surprising harmonic twists. Roedelius’ intuitive and instinctive approach based in improvisation, paired hand in hand with Story’s deliberate distilling of ideas over time, creates two sides of an engaging and thought-provoking conversation that seems to evolve and deepen with each successive listen.

The first single Spirit Clock received its name from Erased Tapes founder Robert Raths, born out of a conversation around timing: “to me this term perfectly describes what’s going on here. There is this invisible bond, this very strong energy between Ach and Tim whenever they make music together that’s still perfectly intact even when they are dimensions apart. This metaphysical intersection of four hands on one and the same mechanical instrument at different times, something so technical yet deeply spiritual, is what fascinates me.”

German sound pioneer Hans-Joachim Roedelius and American composer Tim Story ring in the New Year with a sizzling prepared piano piece, fittingly named Crisscrossing.

Weaving together forty years of friendship, the eleven pieces on their forthcoming Erased Tapes debut 4 Hands, out February 25, convey restraint and empathy, and a way of communicating beyond words.

"Together we shaped the basic compositions, sometimes carefully preparing the piano with various materials (including my own hands), and Achim’s performances were committed to tape. I continued to compose and refine my parts in the following months. Because it was all recorded on the same piano, the result has a very appealing consistency of sound, and hopefully blurs our individual contributions into a single integrated voice” — Tim Story

“For me, these pieces express a different kind of beauty, they evoke more than the sum of their parts, they are a wordless dialogue, a bridge across the great water that separates our cultures from one another. ‘Allons enfants des deux patrie, haha!’” — Hans-Joachim Roedelius

Roedelius & Story share the next single from their forthcoming album 4 Hands — the closing piece ‘Ba’. Meaning the Japanese for ‘a place’, the song title offers only a hint of possible associations, highlighting instead the duo’s sense of humour and lightheartedness, and the music’s playful ambiguity.

“Hans-Joachim Roedelius and I have been collaborating for several decades on many projects, but this one may be the most empathetic and expressive of them all. Most exciting about ‘4 Hands’ is the embrace of a natural phrasing, keeping these pieces disarmingly human and open.” — Tim Story

Ireland-based Peter Broderick returns with his new EP The Wind That Shakes The Bramble on September 10. Expanding on last year's Blackberry album, Peter pays homage to Irish poet Robert Dwyer Joyce’s ballad The Wind That Shakes The Barley. It sees Broderick share additional work from the Blackberry sessions, as well as a beautiful two-part rework from Bing & Ruth (4AD) and the 22-minute title track. 

Viewing the blackberry plant as a symbol of resilience, the song is an expansive and meditative ambient odyssey, a balm for the baffling chaos of the current era.

“It weaves itself all through our countryside, playing an important role in holding the soil together, and also makes its way into our cities, proliferating even in such hyper urban environments as London. And while most modern people have lost the ability to identify the wild plants growing around us, the Blackberry remains a commonly foraged plant all around the globe.”

Good morning and welcome to just another day in August. What will you do with your time today? Me? I'm going to spend about an hour sharing this amazing track with you. Then I'll go for an hour-long walk in the park, and listen to my own track which [I think] I finished last night. Yesterday I dug out one of my older synths (it's the Novation Nova) and pushed myself to extract some beautiful ambient swells from it. I think I've succeeded, at least in my way. Composing music could be a very solitary experience for me, and even though it is immensely therapeutic and often very much reflective, it does, on occasion, get a little bit lonely. It's like saying something to no one in particular, but once it's said, it does "feel" better. Even if there's no one to say something in return. But I do miss conversations. Conversations about music and conversations with music, in an abstract sort of language between two composers sharing a vision and sculpting a tale. This is where Vince Pope's idea of collaborating with numerous artists from around the world really resonates. He acknowledges our current predicament and beyond by accepting that we are "... divided by language, ideas, history, but united by the desire to create music..." For his truly collaborative release, titled Together Apart, Pope gathers artists from a wide representation of musical genres, including Dmitry Evgrafov, Stefano Guzzetti, Sophie Hutchings, and many others on his 12-track album, to use music as the means to connect us again -  "music, the language that all of us understand and that needs no translation."

A cornucopia of evanescent pads and elaborate rhythms with a distinctive downtempo vibe; a daedal story taking one on a magnetic peregrination through dense and contrasted sonic geographies, picturing the notion of temporality and space. 

This mighty 10 track album elicits emotions and feelings and will leave you full of moxie!

Founded by sonic architect and explorer Robert Raths aka ghostworker in 2007, Erased Tapes is a truly independent record label that has disrupted the industry and rejuvenated the musical landscape. The London-based label has consistently nurtured genre-defying artists from all around the world without losing its avant-garde ethos.

2015 saw BBC 6 Music radio presenter Mary Anne Hobbs stage an Erased Tapes evening featuring Nils Frahm and A Winged Victory For The Sullen at the Royal Albert Hall as part of the prestigious BBC Prom. It was the fastest selling ticket of the entire season. Shortly after Erased Tapes was awarded Best Small Label 2015 at the AIM Awards.

On February 5th 2017 Erased Tapes opened the doors to its new East London home, marking the 10th anniversary by introducing fans and the public to the new Erased Tapes Sound Gallery.

“Ten years of one of the most important record labels of the last few years“ — Gilles Peterson

"Over the last decade, Robert Raths’ label Erased Tapes has developed a sonic profile perfectly in step with the growing taste for quiet, meditative works on the cusp of ambient and chamber music" — The Independent

“The heart-string-tugging London label that floats gently between 20th century composition and ambient music” — Rolling Stone
