The new Relmic Statute project ‘Morning Tapes’ is now with us and in our opionion is his best work so far!
Relmic’s latest venture is pure quality and you can’t help but sense the young artist is now coming of age as each track from the album has a real sense of maturity within it’s compositions. The whole thing breaths gentle ambient patterns, orchestrated drones and micro detailed guitar structures, and is a a ‘must’ order from the Hibernate Recordings web site considering his previous release sold like hot cakes!
Relmic Statute (Cotton Goods) is Leeds-based artist David Horner, who assembles lulling, grainy soundscapes based on the splicing of field recordings collected from cassettes and old 1/4-inch tape.
The tracks on the album were all produced individually and sporadically between 2000 and 2009, with no intention of assembling them into an album. The album title “Morning Tapes” simply reflects the fact that the instruments, audio and field recordings were all captured, tape looped, edited and processed during the morning.
Mornings are an interesting time to capture music and make field recordings as it is a time when fully formed sounds converge with freshly emerging ones. The tracks on this album try to capture the juxtaposition of those two environments of sound.
Morning Tapes is a CD not CDr and limited to 200 copies. Packaged in a recycled PP case. First 100 come with a free postcard.
