Spanning the mid-1970s to the mid-90s, this cassette shows the breadth of approaches to ambient and environmental music in Australia. The artists here are not burdened by the "New Age" tag like their more commercial contemporaries, instead we see a range of highly personal sounds, from the kosmiche soundscapes of a german ex-pat rocker to the fairlight rainforest of a cult film composer. It's worth noting how much of this music is shaped by the unique ecology of Australia - acoustic and physical spaces captured through field recordings that dot these records, and mirrored with both electronic and acoustic instruments - and the folk traditions of our neighbours from the Solomon Islands, Papua New Guinea and Thailand. Drawing threads between these composers, this tape captures half an hour of an uniquely Australian take environmental music.

Distant Images is D.K.’s fourth release on Antinote and we can say quite safely that Dang Khoa Chau fueled a few identifiable obsessions over the years – for those familiar with his work, it probably won’t feel like uncharted territory when they’ll hear a somehow well-known guitar in the background of the title-track.

What time spent collaborating with D.K. also showed us is how much his sound magnified itself and its textures sharpened for the past three years. We now know for sure that his music only seems versatile on the surface as Distant Images confirms that the Paris-based musician has been, in fact, digging deeper in the same direction; each new record working like a diaphragm, always more precisely adjusted to capture his inner vision. It feels, for instance, like D.K.’s music is constantly trying to reach a higher level of evanescence from one record to an other, a process which possibly accelerated after a visit from Suzanne Kraft – who he recorded an album with, earlier this year (coming out on Melody As Truth).

With Distant Images, D.K.’s sound also took a step further into reality – the most attentive ears will hear seagulls on Distant Images while rain is softly falling on Leaving – and slightly departed from the digital universes that his previous records seemed to set in motion. From the most abstract songs – like the Steve Reich-ian Shaker Loops – to the most evocative ones, the five compositions on Distant Images are like stained glass, gently filtering natural light. It is therefore no coincidence if, of all the senses, the titles of the songs mostly refer to Sight: close your eyes while listening to the cinematographic Days Of Steam and visions of an industrious city might appear before you.

The beauty that emanates from Distant Images is of a diaphanous kind and the record a collection of kaleidoscopic moments.

With his debut MAT release, entitled 'Universel', Palta almost paints with sound.
Working a defined palette with subtlety and a clarity of vision, we are taken to places that are alien yet familiar; a world whose delicate exterior belies a profound depth and power.
