商品詳細

Label: False Walls

個人的に激推ししたい素晴らしい音楽性、マスタリングはStephan Mathieu!!2016年にNIGHT SCHOOLからデビュー、UK発のエクスペリメンタル・ネットレーベルOutlet Archivalを主宰し多くの実験作家を送り出すグラスゴーの音楽家Helena Celle。Andrew PoppyやCindytalk、Henry Dagg & Evan Parkerなどを手掛けるFalse Wallsより出版した、フィジカルフォーマットの2022年フルレングス。霧がかかった不明瞭なイメージと共に不穏なパーカッションがひたすらに鳴らされる約1時間ノンストップ長編で、メロディックなシロフォン、金属の衝突、物音の拡散など、様々な音の形態が出現する不定型なサウンドスケープ。とにかく全体を支配する寂れたテクスチャーが非常にイイ。20ページブックレット付き。



Gatefold sleeve, with 20 page booklet

For the 2021 online edition of the Counterflows festival, Glasgow-based Kay Logan (aka Helena Celle) created the hour-long electronic Music for Counterflows, accompanied by an interview with Stewart Smith. For the CD and digital release, the music has been mastered by Stephan Mathieu, and the interview along with visual artwork by Kay are included in a 20 page booklet.

The first Helena Celle album, If I Can’t Handle Me At My Best, You Don’t Deserve You At Your Worst, was released on the Night School label in 2016. Since then, Kay has released work under an array of aliases, including Helena Celle’s Haunted Mirror, Helena Celle’s Mimetic Desire, Helena Celle’s Correspondence Table, Otherworld and Time Binding Ensemble. Kay’s Patreon supporters also receive regular transmissions from Helena Celle’s Observer Effect.

“ … an elongated and amorphous soundscape, fogged in reverb and scattered with unsettling percussive detritus. Issued by Faversham, Kent based label False Walls, the piece is a rumbling roam through dimly lit corridors that, over the course of 60 minutes, feels like being swallowed into the belly of reverberant catacombs. Around melodic xylophone-like percussion, [Kay] Logan establishes that this is high fantasy rather than realist terror, melodramatic synth cutting through ferric warble to create a hypnagogic, almost fairytale feel.”
— Spenser Tomson, Wire magazine, on Music for Counterflows (July 2022)
