waiting for the stars to change

Dial the clock back 20 years... New and unashamedly millennium era influenced Dan F for your earholes. (Minus the stutter-y waffle. Maybe in the next one?)

As an aside, had recent e-mail chat with a certified breaks trainspotter (https://soundcloud.com/thebeatisbroke) which got me stoked about the 1999-2005 era of breakbeat all over again. If you're trying to remember details from that period but your memory is sketchy, send Ben a message. He has the answers, and probably a copy on vinyl/digital.

Intro

Heroine

Welcoming London-based artist House on the Strand to the Eastern Nurseries fold following his impressive 2024 debut, "Heroine", Ruben Elbrond-Palmer channels a sombre, cinematic sense of sound with "Unrest".

Interpolating the visual sensibilities of some of his favourite artists, filmmakers, and photographers into the sonic field, Elbrond-Palmer’s palette cuts loose from the percussive elements of his previous work, blending analogue synthesis with repurposed guitars, haunting melodies, and field recordings that call to mind the hazy delirium of a dusty summer’s day. Sitting at its core, "Unrest" places harmony front and centre, with each sombre movement rising and falling as electric fences hum, helicopters hover overhead, and unknown events are set in motion.

Deceptively simple, the resultant album is gestalt—an elegy of melancholic moments, lost to the world.

“Just because you wander the desert, it does not mean there is a promised land.”
— Paul Auster

Eastern Nurseries no. 41

Written & produced by Ruben Elbrond-Palmer
Recorded in London, Kobaek & Aude, 2019-2024

House on the Strand - Fata Morgana

I’ve been meaning to resurrect the Dusky Delay mix series for quite some time since I left Openlab radio a couple of years ago. Well, it’s back! bi-monthly transmissions will appear here on SoundCloud from now on.

This episode was inspired by a recent trip to the Isle of Skye to play at the magical Skye live festival. Special times with special people in one of the most beautiful places on the planet!

Peace & love
