MACHINEFABRIEK & NICOLA R - CD DWAAL/WOLD +

Popis - DWAAL/WOLD +:
'Dwaal' and 'Wold' both are exercises in creating an auditory space or sphere rather than sculpting a structured composition. With its orchestral washes amidst a barrage of radio static and erratic noise, 'Dwaal' is the noisy brother of the two. It's a balancing act or battle perhaps between disruptive tumult and serene calm. On 'Wold', with its sparse piano notes spread out over a bed of subtle hiss, the serenity is left largely unadorned. Wind recordings and bird song - the piano as well as the field recordings captured during a holiday in Vriescheloo, (NL) - slowly guide the listener into an hypnotic, dream-like state. The cassette for 'Dauw' was released in February 2016 and sold out quickly. Moving Furniture Records has decided to re-release it as a CD, adding two interpretations to the album, by Benoît Pioulard (whose 'Sonnet' was a clear influence for the album) and Nicola Ratti (another source of inspiration, both solo and with Bellows). The latter strips 'Dwaal' down and injects it with wonderful synth sputters, rhythms and bloops. Pioulard's version of 'Wold' features his recreation of the atmosphere of the original using organ and guitar with mesmerizing results.
