Celer – Dying Star

It doesn’t get much better than discovering new material from Celer, and so it was with great excitement mixed with sad emotions that I came across a new project forthcoming on Dragons Eye Recordings…

Dying Star was recorded in the fall of 2008, using only a vintage analog synthesizer and mixing board. It was completely improvised, with no overdubs or post-processing. The intention was to produce a completely improvised work while remaining completely pure and secluded, the resulting recording stands as a fading presentation of memory, time, and loss, set against the ending day.

Pouring Me Into The Rest Of You

Presented at a low volume, the ideal and intended procedure for listening is with headphones, with the volume set specifically at 80%. Through intimacy, tenderness, and isolation, the resulting imaginings are stately presented, yet consistently withering away; and throughout the duration, energy pushes forward, strains, explodes, but eventually crumbles. – Dragon’s Eye Recordings
