Not quite sure if the concept of our 'rude not to' department is applicable to streams - but any chance to feature Richard Skelton's immanence & immensity is going to be taken here regardless. So the emergence yesterday of new & in some cases rare tastes of his extraordinarily moving music demands space & attention.

Something from Harlassen's out of print A Way Now would be thrilling too. But the opportunity to hear Skelton in less familiar guises like Carousell, Clouwbeck, Heidika & Riftmusic couldn't be more welcome - or rewarding. While sharing intense plasticity, a tangible quavering & strain, with A Broken Consort & the releases in his own name, their subtle differences of instrumentation & attack fill out our grasp of his intensely grounded takes on loss & landscape.

Self-released catalogue here. Previous coverage here (ABC), here (Heidika, RS) & here (ABC, Carousell).

Radio death

Never managed to get this week's original post on Under the Spire HypeClouded, but no matter: two more really fine Jasper TX remixes - from Steinbruechel (gauzily delicate, but with that faint buzz he uses to keep at least the implication of a sharper edge) & Simon Scott (glacial, metallic, restrained) - more than fill the void...



As noted: an all-star remix project (Xela! Zelienople! Simon Scott! Steinbruechel! Seaworthy!) for Jasper TX would be more than enough to get my interest. But in its modest way Under the Spire keeps intruding into what passes for LMYE's consciousness - in our recent flick through Ithaca Trio (new EP up, by the way)/worriedaboutsatan, for example, as well as that long overdue trip to southern Texas.

"Some harsh machines"

A quartet of entry points into Andreas Tilliander's wondrous, somehow kraut-dubby Mokira project, led by a newly growling, darkly viscous 'modular session' - plus full streams of both masterful Type albums...

Mokira - Modular Session 20100224

"Doepfer Modular, Clavia NordModular G2, Sherman Filterbank 2, Roland RE-301, RE-501, Abletone Live."

Mokira - Seven Ply

Second instalment of a re-up effort for this 12-track original...

An all-star remix project (Xela! Zelienople! Simon Scott! Steinbruechel! Seaworthy!) for Jasper TX would be more than enough to get my interest. But in its modest way Under the Spire keeps intruding into what passes for LMYE's consciousness - in our recent flick through Ithaca Trio (new EP up, by the way)/worriedaboutsatan, for example, as well as that long overdue trip to southern Texas.

From Jasper's mighty slabs of sound to the fragile delicacies of Jannick Schou, Damian Valles & Shotahirama & wondrous oddities of Ian Hawgood's shruti boxes, UtS is proving pretty essential listening. Here's the other half of a dozen SoundClouded tracks (organised a bit by noisiness/intensity) to prove the point...

Gilding the lily

For some, a footnote to a footnote would be gilding the lily, the gingerbread & all other comestibles within reach. But LMYE has no such qualms...

After our post-overview post yesterday, the fecund Jannick Schou uploaded another excellent piece to his SoundCloud. To these ears, the four lustrous Small Snippets are as good as pretty well anything in his name shared previously. Hear them below:

Small Snippets by JannickSchou



Talking of lustrous, need to do something substantial on Relmic Statute's beguiling soundscapes soon. But two pieces that emerged today - Luthrimel 3 in particular, but also a '2009 re-edit' of Slopes - are so ravishing that they have to go up immediately:

Continuing the footnotes to our recent Under the Spire overview, a brisk trot through Damian Valles' distinctly not-brisk, far from trotting output - dense, accumulating, somewhat hulking, occasionally bucolic, sometimes quite moving & always diverting...

Subtle sculptures

Footnote to earlier post on Under the Spire: feast on Jannick Schou's fine, immersive ambient drones here (The Haze In Your Eyes EP) & here (Autumn) & below ("little demo" on SoundCloud)...



"As I'm in a really productive period right now I've decided to go ahead and upload some of my finished projects to bandcamp. The Haze In Your Eyes is one of these projects.

Here's a little information about the release:""The Haze In Your Eyes" consists of four tracks I recorded from Decemeber '09 to February '10. The pieces are all composed of minimal and icy drones as well as field recordings. The songs were made using processed piano recordings and analogue synths.

There's no overarching idea or concept behind the pieces though they all came out with a somewhat similar sound and feeling. I hope you'll enjoy these four subtle sculptures of micro-drones and field recordings."

Jannick Schou > The Haze In Your Eyes (from The Haze In Your Eyes, self-released)

"Autumn is a stunning piece of ambient microsound and it flows along in a really pleasant and gorgeous way that really makes you feel like floating. The piece gradually evolves through small and subtle changes in timbre, tonality and dynamic. You’ll hear (what sounds like) melancholic strings fading into uplifting drones and much more! The piece is made using nothing but processed piano and guitar recordings and the overall tone is rather dark."

"Little demo I've been working on. Nothing too out of the ordinary." [!]
