Jane Weaver
Intiaani Kesä
DIM008

Originally commissioned as incidental cues for a short film by Helsinki based designer Paola Suhonen, Intiaani Kesä (Indian Summer) by multi-instrumentalist Jane Weaver has since grown into a fully formed project lending itself to a number of further cinematic productions and creative applications . Appearing alongside Demdike Stare and Brigitte Fontaine in the vampire film Kiss Of The Damned by Xan (daughter of John) Cassevetes and recut and performed as an alternative rescore to Eiichi Yamamoto's Belladonna Of Sadness for various live performances, this set of well-crafted themes takes it's brazen influences of Nicolai, Dell'Orso, Alessandroni and Daniella Casa back to their purest analog recording origins with startling effect. Recorded in an old vicarage near the Peak District, housing a unique analogue experimental studio, Intiaani Kesä hears Weaver deploy a wide range of instruments including tubular bells, bowed guitars, vintage Goblinised Roland string synths, detuned pianos, church bells, Roland guitar synths, harpsichords and ex-Radiophonic Workshop custom equipment as accompaniment to wordless and onomatopoeic chorale vocals recorded on valve microphones with space echo, sonic room reverbs and bespoke experimental tape delays. Made in a disciplined and unforgiving environment without modern technological shortcuts these self-initiated creative research prototypes were not initially intended for commercial release but are thankfully gathered here as songs in there own right independent of context.

JANE ET JULIE - Notre Homme à Moi

Not a fractal! 

This track is based around a recording I made of my street being paved last year. Other recordings: a dog collar, insect chorus, birds and ambient noise behind a strip mall, and breath, all looped and mixed in Ableton Live. I wasn't sure how to structure it, so I picked up an Oblique Strategies card (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_Strategies) and it said "Repetition is a form of change", so I ran with it. 

This is for the Disquiet Junto #257, Remember Noisevember.

Available now at geographic-north.com

Dearborn sweethearts and godparents of guitar-based drift open the second half of Geographic North’s You Can’t Hide Your Love Forever 7” series with two testaments to the duo’s intangible, unparalleled magic. The two pieces here serve as a distillation of Windy & Carl's ethereal compositions and a fitting companion to We Will Always Be, recently released via Kranky. 

The North-side reveals a peek into the duo's influences with their take on Dwight Yoakam’s “A Thousand Miles from Nowhere” delivering heartbreak as expansive as "Antarctica" (part of Darla's Bliss Out series) paired with Vini Reilly-channeled guitar work. Windy's icey vocals compliment the tune's distant narrative, while Carl's tones warmly recall Slowdive’s Souvlaki and Flying Saucer Attack’s Further.

The South-side’s “Geographic” offers classic Windy & Carl in distorted waves of warm feedback shimmering against icy trails of slow-burning embers. Glacial and haunting, the duo once again deliver staggering beauty in timeless fashion, with meditative drones that go on for days.

Limited to 300 copies on clear blue vinyl. Two alternate covers. Letter-pressed insert.
