Cool Afternoon

I don't know that there's merit to employing the beast - the internet - to disturb having grown accustomed to the beast.

It wasn't eight years ago that city people would come to the School here on the farm and look at me concernedly when they found out the hard way that I, as it is said, 'had no service'. Two weeks ago the Bell guy was up a pole on the lane at the behest of an erstwhile air b/b landlord, to install - I would say 'impose' - some kind of higher speed version of the beast, to make this rural area attractive to people who want to get away from it all. There's bound to be a pretty stout demand for well appointed places to get away from it all in the wake of all this distancing.
Maybe this virus is a disturbance in the Fentanyl supply. Maybe the internet is the slickest methadone yet, keeping hale and hearty the mania for empty engagement, for the vacant calories of content.
I won't claim that there's loads of requests for more from me, on this or any other subject. There isn't.
I've never been on the other personal devices, or platforms, or anything else. Don't know how to activate them.

This is as compromised a move as I seem capable of, social media wise. Not very sophisticated, but earnest.
Here's an ad hoc meeting of the farm crew, issuing proof of what they're mindful of while forking hay and picking out the poison ivy roots and milking the ewes.
I did my best on short notice. We'd like something here to be useful to your ruminations, before the horn blows and your rumination time is cut short.

Bless. Work. Repeat. That's what we're up to.
Good fortune to your door.

Spells And Stories With Stephen Jenkinson

Glåsbird returns following the debut EP ‘Drift Stations’ which was a digital only release on Whitelabrecs just prior to Christmas last year. The eagerly awaited full-length debut album is something that this currently anonymous artist has carefully shaped over a lengthy period of time and it is entitled Grønland. Those looking to the themes of the North Pole and travel through the treacherous Arctic Circle which were contained within Drift Stations, will see a pattern of travel or rather, migration developing. Next stop – Greenland, the world’s largest island as well as one of the most uninhabited landmasses on the planet, which is thanks to stark temperatures and the permanent ice sheet which occupies most of this land.

Glåsbird imagined that they were assigned the task of scoring the soundtrack to a film about Greenland and spent a great deal of time researching the subject. Hours of documentaries, drone helicopter footage, NASA and satellite images, Instagram traveller accounts, 360° photos, web articles and maps were surveyed, to the point where this artist felt sufficiently immersed in this sub-zero but beautiful land. One such traveller/photographer who has physically witnessed the splendour of Greenland is Lennart Pagel, who kindly provided the cover image; the shot not only captures the essence of this country with its iced mountains, freezing lake and primary-coloured cabin but also there is a bold starkness which lends itself to this soundtrack.

Two releases in and whilst we’re no clearer as to who is behind this project, it is clear that Glåsbird is becoming synonymous with storytelling and specifically travel or migration, if you prefer.
The music itself adopts a Modern Classical approach with icy piano shards shimmering alongside glacial violin and cello drones as well as the occasional hint of grounding electric guitar. We’re told that the artist even recorded some sections of sounds to cassette before placing the tape in the freezer to give an added chill factor.

We’ve decided that such an impactful concept would suit a special ‘gatefold LP’ style packaging that we’ve run a couple of times as well as an increased run of 100 copies. Where will the Glåsbird land next?
