Album Info

Release Date: 2016-08-11

Label: No Fans Records

Boredom of Poetry was once a short song on a CDR also called Boredom of Poetry that I released on No Fans Records NFR11 in 2006. The original song cycle was built on a thirly recorded improvisation of Appalachian dulcimer, cifteli, Thai harp and zither. These two longer pieces feature the same lo-fi recording layered with four further recordings made in different places at different times: a pro-studio drum freakout, a forgotten somewhat meditational session of unknown date, a failed attempt at a jazz album from a couple of months ago, and a harmonica/Casio pairing from last week.

Appalachian duclimer, cifteli, Thai harp and zither (Harpenden, 2006).
Drums (Cava Sound Workshop, Glasgow, before 2010).
Epinette des Vosges, sleighs and voice (Glasgow, before 2010).
Bass guitar, Casio, cymbals, drum machine, hand drum, harmonica and shakuhachi (Glasgow, 2016).
