Your Voice In Pieces

Landtitles - Groupings

First single from Anne Garner's upcoming Dear Unknown, released on Slowcraft on 1st April 2022, paired here with a euphoric electronica remix from label curator and ambient producer James Murray.

Alma celebrates the artist’s late mother, whose passing prompted Anne to begin her songwriting career, urging us all to cherish each and every moment of life’s precious, fleeting gift.

Words from Anne:

This song is about my mum, wise, compassionate but with so little self confidence. I mourn her early death from cancer and I'm angry that she was diminished by a patriarchal religious environment that nurtured guilt, bred shame and thrived on the inequality of women.

I hope I can redress this injustice by facing my own fears, speaking out my own truth and setting free the trapped, frightened self that doesn't think she deserves to be heard.

The music I make is one of the ways I intend to do this.

When You Are

Mike Lazarev - If I Could Be Your Tears

Hajú is an old Moravian word that loosely translates to “hush hush”.

With the lead single and title track from his upcoming album on Slowcraft, Tomáš' weaves together acoustic elements, soft synthetic manoeuvres and evocative field recordings to spellbinding effect.

Assisted by Pavel Rajmic on strings and Marie Puttnerová on vocals the Czech composer and field recordist has perfectly captured the spirit of both his homeland and the season.

Anne Garner - Wednesday's Child (Radio Edit)

Anne Garner's celebrated 2015 album Be Life touched hearts and found its way onto many end of year lists. Knowing these songs had more stories to tell we invited some of our favourite producers to rework and reinterpret, providing fresh and illuminating perspectives on Anne's heartfelt material. This is James Murray's contribution, featuring reinstated vocals previously only glimpsed in handwritten form on the original album's hand-stitched booklet.

Be Life Relived will be released on Slowcraft, Unperceived Records and across all major platforms on 10th June 2016.

Hidden For The Eyes

Bride of the Mountains

Fall Before the Night is the second track from Anne Garner's album Lost Play and features James Murray on backing vocals. The album was released June 8th 2018 on Slowcraft Records.

Anne Garner’s new album Lost Play celebrates the vital, unrestrained joy of childhood, grieves the nameless slide from curiosity to conformity and reflects on how being moulded by other people can leave us feeling punished, shut down, and open to abuse and loss of self in adulthood. Within the dark reflections from this bygone mirror are comfort, remedy and a sense of hope for the future - for both artist and listener - and perhaps even a rediscovery of that childlike joy all over again.
