Bygone Dreams

Featherd Sun

Feathered Sun

A longing as deep as the winter snow infuses Hiraeth, suffocating, beautiful and haunting. Composed by Iranian musicians Farshad Xajehnassiri (tarxun) and Siavash Hakim in the cold months of 2015, this album presents longing not as a quiet and controlled mourning, or an almost pleasant nostalgia, but as deeply disorienting landscape, a salve one moment, the next overwhelming, abrasive and menacing.

The comforts of memory and nostalgia here exact a price. Winds howl, fences, windows and strings vibrate, voices echo, distort and dissolve, as Hakim's trumpet insists on a remembrance already futile and taunting. In naming this album Xajehnassiri and Hakim turned to the Welsh word 'Hiraeth' to describe a longing for a home which perhaps never was, and in its eight compositions it is to these twin qualities of memory that the pair return again and again. A vision so sweet it taunts, a longing so strong it becomes a house in which to dwell. A cocoon of sound: potent and intoxicating; familiar and strange.

Placebo Seduction from Hiraeth by tarxun and Siavash Hakim out Nov 5

The Unavoidable Death of Loneliness, an expressionist venture at the cross-section of classical and ambient, traverses as a wander, a trip through emotions encountered first hand and unprocessed.

Available on CD here: https://bit.ly/3yLUjvI

Like an internal dialogue, the album mutates continually - ever changing, expressing, chattering - never dwelling on the same exact thought as before. These are emotions formed, put to paper, but as though still raw and unfiltered, a free association of musical feeling.

Handstitched* preview for the track "House Of Light" from the forthcoming album by Bill Seaman & Stephen Spera, titled- "Architectures Of Light"

Pre-order available now:  https://handstitched.bandcamp.com/album/architectures-of-light

Released: April 22, 2022 - Handstitched* [HS43]

After following each other in differing capacities, both musically and visually, the two have connected for the new Handstitched* release "Architectures Of Light". As with all good collaborations, Seaman and Spera found a method that worked best for their musical-output, an organic flow and process that allowed the songs to breathe naturally with time and space.

Sending each other libraries of potential ideas, then building up layers of sounds, adding to each other's work as time progressed. Multiple iterations created by each artist on the album formed the audible backbone and it was added-to, and/or broken-down to form alternative viewpoints, resulting in moments of slowly formed movements which evolve without escaping the focus of the audience's attention.

There is a depth in the work of Seaman and Spera that is noticeable in the form of languages and interpretation, using found-sound, evocative vocal samples from past archives and degraded/fluctuating tape loops. Two songs have accompanying visual works, one produced by Seaman and one by Spera, both videos marry the visual and musical language found inside the music with dream-like and organic representations for each respective work.
