“At the beginning of working on this album I had an idea of the feel that I wanted to achieve, but no clear direction. I had a piece which I was experimenting with that captured that feel and sent it to poet, Neil McRoberts, to get his thoughts. 

He wrote back; “when I put the track on, the initial sounds brought an image to mind of someone moving very carefully in an abandoned and crumbling building, perhaps stepping on the broken pieces of an old picture frame. I had the impression that the person had returned to the ruin of somewhere they had lived in the past and as the more melodic elements of the music emerged, with their beautiful melancholic melody, they seemed to embody the memories of the person, looking back with a mixture of sadness and happiness. That set of thoughts made brought to mind some of the abandoned homesteads that are scattered in the rangeland and corners of the valley floor.

"Antonin was the first. He sat down and played a few notes. Struck a few chords. Closed his eyes. Recorded what was roused. And then edited what sounded wrong or useless or trite. Making movies like he does teaches you to do that. To distinguish, afterwards, between what is sensible and what is not."

Tan Taigi was a haiku poet of the Edo period. He was a wanderer for most of his life and admired by Yosa Buson for his ability to transcend his eclectic and unconventional lifestyle with sublime poetry.

Between Us

I hope the Wild Edges speak for themselves. The rest is what happens between them.

I have limited know how and equipment, but think that feeling is more important than hardware and technical ability. 

I decided to stop liking other artists tracks, even if i do like them. I was feeling the pressure to like tracks when i listened to them, especially when people sent them to me to listen to, worried that if i didn't i would upset or offend the artist if i didn't like them, its easier just to like privately. Misunderstandings sadly happened too easily, so i'm distancing myself from the possibility of hurting anyone and of being hurt myself.  Maybe it is better being alone after all. Soundcloud is just like anywhere else where there are lots of people...it can be difficult.

I won't follow, listen, or like, for followers, listens, and likes, so, please, don't ask me to. 

This is a creative escape.

I am always trying to be quiet, but often fail, and to do better.

For Headphone listening
Thank you for listening
