Sometimes in September 2014, Mathias Van Eecloo who runs Eilean Rec. asked me to make a track for the label’s end-of-the-year compilation. He wanted something quite different than the album I had just released on his label, something more “ethereal” and “softer” than the harsher textures that I had explored with this album. He sent me a few photos to help me finding the right tone for the track and i was so inspired by one of them that I made this music in nearly one sitting in October. The compilation was released in December 2014 and it’s called Eilean 53. It features the 12 artists who released an album on Eilean Rec. in 2014.

Nightfall - Pascal Savy (Eilean Rec.)

"George Chua’s “Evidence of Things Not Seen” has personally been a favorite album of mine for about a decade. In 2006 the title was self released by the Singapore based artist on a limited run of CDR’s and made available for direct download on his website, which is how I obtained it. I remember there was something immediately unique about the 4 pieces; specifically off the first take “Gloria”, that it felt more like the document of a living organism, rather than a piece of music. As you accrue more listens of course your pattern recognition starts to formulate and separate the musical signatures; but the piece still maintains that effervescent living form that moves without you but wills you to follow it. This past year I felt compelled to link friends into the album, however, I couldn't find any digital copy online, and moreover hardly any information on it. This startled me a bit and I got to work- By way of Social Media I was able to get in contact with George (Thanks to friends at Kitchen Label) and he happily agreed to present the album digitally with Anòmia, thus making it accessible to those who missed it the first time around."

Evidence Of Things Not Seen

ANM043 George Chua — Gloria

At the core of 'Everyone is here' lies Kajsa Lindgren's usual process, defined by one simple question: “How can you make something of your own by manipulating time and space?” The Swedish composer joins Warm Winters Ltd. after recent releases with Hyperdelia (WOMB, 2018) and Longform Editions (Undercurrents, 2019). 

This album's 20 tracks are based around archival recordings that Kajsa stumbled upon in her grandfather's old basement and around memories of places or sounds from her childhood. Slowly, the album moves through time, at first reinterpreting recordings from the 60s and 70s, eventually showcasing some of Kajsa's latest compositions for voice and field recordings. Some pieces utilise very specific recordings - “Trio for cello, piano and violin” is based on an audio snippet of Kajsa's “mother, uncle and grandfather making an appearance as a trio in Swedish radio sometime during the 70's” - while others - “Anna”, inspired by memories of the Lindgrens' family boat called Anna and the sensation of being rocked to sleep by the Baltic sea waves - are more related to memories, places or objects. 

But 'Everyone is here' isn't a mere timeline of sounds or melancholic dive into previous decades. The album is a meditation on themes of inheritance, family and closeness. The composer describes the process of collecting old sonic material as “comforting”, especially in relation to her relationship with her grandparents, parents and family friends. “[The process] has given me an intimate understanding of them as human beings. We’ve all been kids, becoming adults. Trying to figure out who we are, what we want, what makes us happy and sad in life. There’s a great sense of connection and humility in that.”

Using instruments and FX emerging from somewhere in the 60’s, Feldermelder forms a storytelling as an Ursprache of ear speech, that hovers over horizons of superluminal fields. Breathing in and zoning out under the light of future holographic suns.

To honor the recent passing of composer Harold Budd, this special edition of Wayward in Limbo features a live recording of a very special concert by Harold and Seattle bassist Keith Lowe. 

The performance took place at the Good Shepherd Center Chapel in Seattle on June 11, 2009 to celebrate the release of Harold's book of poetry, "Colorful Fortune." It was co-presented by Nonsequitur and publishers Heavenly Monkey Editions (Vancouver) and MoonLiner Books (Seattle). Thanks to Rob Angus for the beautiful recording, and to Keith Lowe for agreeing to share it with us.

And thank you, Harold, for gracing this world with your beautiful music. You are appreciated and missed.

Wayward in Limbo #89 – Harold Budd & Keith Lowe

When ACL first started producing mixes, I knew that I didn’t just want to invite artists and labels. We’ve always imagined ACL as a part of a broader community. As such I’ve often invited mixes from amateurs, from listeners and fellow critics. This mix is one of those. 

We have another special guest mix from Philippe Requena. We have previous featured two mixes from him, Venant le jour and Water Be My Road Now. As on those mixes, Requena moves in a post-genre sonic world, drawing unexpected connections between disparate selections.

You can follow Phillipe Requena on his Bandcamp: https://bandcamp.com/requena
