Ahead of the release of their debut album, ‘Spring Tide’, The Shipbuilders release their latest single, ‘Forest Floor’ via Mai 68 Records on Friday 29th April.
An eerie, psychedelic shuffle that brings to mind the freakier sides of Love and The Coral, ‘Forest Floor’ features a bass-led groove that descends into chaos with an extended outro made up of ghostly, wordless vocals, wailing harmonica and tumbling piano, all blown about by a storm of reverb-heavy guitars and relentless motorik drums.
Speaking of the track, lead singer Matty Loughlin-Day explains “the song sings of an impending storm, prophesised by an old sage and queries whether there is hope left in the town or whether it’s best to return to the land and find safety. Ultimately, the hero of the song is trying to find his best to way to survive on the line between the smug and the damned”

FOREST FLOOR

The Depths

This track was inspired by the Disquiet Junto Project 0528 (details see below) and presents musical flora: An unobstrusive path symbolized by a simple melody line meanders through two different sections of a botanical garden. My thoughts drifted to the beautiful landscapes of the https://sichtungsgarten-hermannshof.de/. A Hohner Organetta was the perfect instruments to trace the path.

The evocative field-recording of trees and birds were provided by @blaukreuz on freesounds:

High Noon  ( Naviarhaiku 437 )

Reflections #2

Sketch   # 1 for BATWA

I love the smell of the ground after rain (petrichor), which this week's haiku, by Richard Barnes, evokes. It inspired my improvisation (in A Aeolian) played on a VST piano with effects from Guitar Rig 6. Recorded and mixed in Reaper. Mastered with CloudBounce.

Lyrics / copyright jo richter:
concatenandus - (on the meaning of wind generators in fashion photography)

she kept wondering about all those photographs
that show flowing hair and wide, wind-swept robes
until she understood: those ropes connect halves
of a self that's caught and its dasein-based scopes

what is my real size if it's not epidermical skin?
the reach of my voice? my status, hierarchical clout?
my environmental footprints, global, within?
my life's agenda? some will being lived out?

what is my true reach into psyche, space, time?
which pasts do shape my tribulations and loves?
she thought of herself as a poor poet's rhyme,
as a reflection of life in a stock photograph.

a stranger wave of understanding hit her
when she unfolded into the moment -
she was not singled out, her whole world was with her
she was connected in a well-worn arrangement

of events manifest: she yelled out with joy:
birds nest in my hair, my feet walk the ground
this self tried to bind me, this gravitational ploy
but beyond all that hassle, spins a world that is round

Open for collaboration: Concatenandus - on the meaning of wind generators in fashion photography
