The Caretaker - Their Story Is Lost

Selected Memories from the Haunted Ballroom

Midnight, the Stars and You

Long Term (Remote)

Skazka means fairy tale in Russian. Fairytales are more real than modern life, filled with illusory values. A man truly exists only in myth, in a supernatural, mystical reality, and everything else is just an external pursuit of illusory success, which prevents us from being present in the moment, understanding ourselves, and being truly happy.

Work on 'Everywhere, at the end of time' was all consuming 
as you can imagine. All work and no play, all work and no play. 

In celebration of its completion and only for a limited time* 
here is a surprise golden farewell. 

Compliments of the house. 

Offering you one last chance to raise a charged glass for 
those we lost along the way, for all the works, for those ghosts 
from our past, for our uncertain future and for The Caretaker. 

You are of course welcome to purchase me a drink if you find 
this work to be of personal value. 

As the old saying goes "I'm the type of guy who likes to know 
who's buying their drinks, Lloyd." 

Thanks eternally for your support. 

C'est fini.

Everywhere, an empty bliss

Entanglement synapse ache

Minimal all you are

Equinox eyes will stop

The Caretaker returns with a long-in-the-making soundtrack to acclaimed filmmaker Grant Gee's documentary about German writer WG Sebald. 'Patience (After Sebald)' is a multi-layered film essay on landscape, art, history, life and loss - an exploration of the work and influence of German writer WG Sebald (1944-2001), told via a long walk through coastal East Anglia tracking his most famous book 'The Rings Of Saturn'. The source material for 'Patience' was sourced from Franz Schubert's 1827 piece 'Winterreise' and subjected to his perplexing processes, smudging and rubbing isolated fragments into a dust-caked haze of plangent keys, strangely resolved loops and de-pitched vocals which recede from view as eerily as they appear.
