Your use of reverb is wonderful. Yeah, agree with with The World Next Door, those chords are brilliant, especially the last one. I call dip chords, down and back to the high, then onto the big build around 2.25. Great arrangement and flow.

The Hardy Tree – Common Ground
Frances Castle is the illustrator/owner behind the Clay Pipe record label and The Hardy Tree is her on- going musical project. Common Grounds was started at the beginning of the 2019 pandemic - when time moved very slowly and travel away from home became impossible. 
“Like many others with extra time on my hands I walked the streets of my neighbourhood for exercise and well-being. I rambled like I might in the country side; stopping every now and then to take in the view, or notice something I’d missed before. I took to looking up local streets in historical newspapers, and read reports of murders and deaths and robberies that had happened in the past.  I researched the names of the people who had lived in my house before me, viewed old census returns from the surrounding area, and noted the birth places and livelihoods of past residents. I began to see the ghosts of these people on my walks, and notice the things that they had left behind; shapes of ancient tram tracks creeping under the tarmac, an old gas street light in an alley way, a tiny metal sign indicating a culverted  river.   I spent my evenings writing and recording the music on this LP and then the following day would listen to the rough mixes as I walked, the music began to soundtrack the walks, and the walks began influencing the type of music I was creating.”

Place Language is an international non-profit compilation album project inspired by the themes found in Robert Macfarlane’s widely-acclaimed book ‘Landmarks’. In particular it focuses on the book’s extensive topographic glossaries, the “word-hoard” of depictive landscape terms gathered from 30 different languages, dialects and sub-dialects around Britain & Ireland and divided into sections by type of terrain (Flatlands, Uplands, Waterlands, Coastlands, Underlands, Northlands, Edgelands, Earthlands and Woodlands). Relying on these topograms, or “tiny place poems”, as creative prompts, Place Language seeks to both inspire a renewed interest in our surroundings and reinvigorate our appreciation for the audible textures & patterns that characterize a place in keeping with the book’s stated desire to “re-wild” our vocabulary.

The collection features the work of 28 different sound-artists, field recordists, and musicians from around the globe each of whom selected a Landmarks topogram and recorded an impression of it thus adding rich new aspects of dimensionality through the act of sonification. These selections cover all nine of the book’s glossaries along with place-words of  new coinage as prompted by the blank one which Macfarlane leaves at the end of the book for readers to fill in from their own experience. The end result is a truly global and collaborative survey of place, language, and sound.

Bethan Kellough - Black-east from the Crow

It's been a good few years in hiding
From the blood and the monsters that were
Waiting to feed
Outside my door

But now I think it's time I crack a window
Let in a little light into the middle
I'm scared to wake in open air

And I heard you were once looking around for me
But you see I could not stop running
Now I'm standing still and it's you that I need to find
I've got to tell you why, you have never left my mind

And he says it gives him confidence
To keep looking at himself in the mirror
Quiet chance, settling
Now was it me or did he also feel that?
Looking at me lasted a little younger
Height and hands, the mark of man

And I heard you were once looking around for me
But you see I could not stop running
Now I'm standing still and it's you that I need to find
I've got to tell you why, you have never left my mind

Guest bedroom music from Calgary.
Murky and raw. Mellow and understated. 
Inspired by everything. Not sure of anything.
