Of Shadow And Substance (Excerpt)

Portrait of a February dream - Un sogno senza tempo

flowers smile in the clear pool

Ecstatic present the sublime second release from Mancunian duo Celestial, 'Listen To The Sky' offers a quiet fusion of Balearic blues and kosmische influences follows up their mesmerizing 2021 debut "I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night"'. 

Evoking a rich sonic palette of evocative guitar instrumentals with echoes of Mike Oldfield's Tubular Bells and Frippertronics , Celestial deftly forge their own gentle and uncluttered fusion of acoustic and electric guitar textures with immersive environmental synthetic washes. 

Opener 'Brother Sun, Sister Moon' pairs Celestial with fellow dreamer and labelmate Romance (who also provide additional production flourishes throughout the record) for a stunning piece of modern chamber music wreathed with strident electric guitar, piano, horns and electronics, oceans of hiss bathe 'To The Green Mountains' plagent synth bass and meditative Paris, Texas esque guitar figures while 'Four Temparaments' provides an uncharacteristically but welcome clangorous and urgent new age lament. 

'Listen To The Sky's sun-drenched soundscapes and ethereal productions unfold with a kaleidoscopic and nostalgic ennui tenderly captured on fragile AGFA tap providing a mesmeric deep listening experience that skews to the mythic and trancendental.

Celestial - Brother Sun, Sister Moon Feat. Romance

"The death of a dream can in fact serve as the vehicle that endows it with new form, with reinvigorated substance, a fresh flow of ideas, and splendidly revitalized color."

Warum [w/Henrik Meierkord]

New wars are raging, now in Gaza, I wish I could hug all the people who suffer them in first person, for all the hugs not given. Hold me close.


SI DEBO MORIR

Si debo morir, tú debes vivir para contar mi historia,  para vender mis cosas, comprar un trozo de tela y algunas cuerdas, (hazlo blanco con una cola larga) para que un niño, en algún lugar de Gaza…

mientras mira el cielo a los ojos esperando a su padre que se fue en llamas —y no te despidas de nadie, ni siquiera a su carne, ni siquiera a si mismo— Ve la cometa, mi cometa que tú hiciste, volando arriba  y piensa por un momento que un ángel está ahí, trae de vuelta el amor.

1979-2023 Refaat Alareer

Si debo morir  deja que traiga esperanza… deja que sea un cuento.

CHRONOLITHE 12 pm Tuesday 27.02 Lyl radio

Ce collage sonore porté sur la voix : parlée, prononcée, bredouillée, chantée, est un assemblage de field recording, musiques électroacoustiques et chants traditionnels de Sardaigne, de Bretagne, de Bulgarie, de Mantras argentins et pakistanais, mais aussi : d’une respiration inversée et de poils qui crépitent, de Space Lady dans son jardin au printemps, d’une séance de spiritisme qui fonctionne, d’un ordinateur qui s’appelle John Wayne, de mâts sifflants sur le port de Locmiquélic, d’une balade nocturne en Aveyron et d’un animal non identifié, d’un cours de yoga, d’un apprentissage d’un sonnet de Shakespeare, de chuchotements imperceptibles et d’un enfant qui veut vous croquer l’oreille.

Les percussions résonantes de Felicia Atkinson entrent en écho avec celles de Geir Jenssen recueillies au Tibet , les nappes électriques vivantes d’Aho Saan parfument les micros sons de Qoa - issus d’une biocénose Abletonienne qui titille le tympan - Le ressac thailandais dans les tuyaux vibrants de Félix Blume donne un espace aquatique à la monodie de Roxane Métayer et autres jeux d’associations d’hétérophonies.
