Jack Ellister is normally associated with the Fruits de Mer 
label for which he has made a couple of albums and singles 
in classic psychedelic style; rough sounding, energetic and 
inspired. Now he is back with an album of mainly acoustic 
songs, called ‘Telegraph Hill’ which is his third LP and first 
full length for You Are The Cosmos. Originally planned as 
EP to bridge the gap between albums, the focus here is on 
solitary voice with acoustic guitar, with occasional drums, 
percussion, flute, violin, didgeridoo and synthesizers, all 
played by Jack Ellister except for the drums. Those were 
provided by long time collaborators Tomasz Helberg and 
Nico Stallmann. Most of the recordings took place in his 
homestudio on Telegraph Hill in South East London, using 
an Otari 8 track machine, an old Tascam desk and some 
outboard gear. At the same studio he’s producing 
electronic music as Mytron. A special edition of 100 green 
CDr’s in tin boxes was made for the Fruits De Mer 10 year 
anniversary show in Glastonbury in May 2018.
