TERMINAL EVENING

TERMINAL EVENING #13 | TERRAINS VAGUES

If you’ve ever had the sensation of not knowing exactly where you were and what was going on, or otherwise noticed a presence where there should have been an absence, or the other way around, or experienced a feeling of things being not quite as they should be, and in any or all of these cases found the sensation intriguing and/or pleasurable, this little selection is for you. To be played with the lights off and the volume up.

TERMINAL EVENING #12 | LIFE DURING WARTIME

You’re lookingstraight into my eyes so that I maydispatch teenagers to the armyand shape their future.Here I am armed on street corners,inside tanks, on the roofs,staring into space, omnipresent, constantly working,dispossessing slumber from its lids,causing panic, caprice, unintended murder.Can you address mewith reason, without it all falling apart,your adages, myths, and creeds?

TERMINAL EVENING #11 | MIGRATIONS

Reflections on displacements, not always exterior, whether by choice, necessity or reasons more ephemeral; perilous journeys to unknown destinations and uncertain outcomes, the need to escape from or escape to, the search for a safe harbour or the simple desire to strike out into the empty spaces on the map. When we return, you won't recognise us.

TERMINAL EVENING#10 | CHAPTER AND VERSE

The human being has wandered down a vast number of unlikely, if not often  incomprehensible, paths in search of some sort of framework to make reality liveable - artefacts of some of these, and refutations and/or critiques of same, can be found herein. No border is recognized here between so-called 'legitimate' and spurious or even fraudulent belief systems - all are symptoms of something else entirely that underlies the entire edifice, and no overt attempt to editorialise has been made. Includes documentary material of diverse origins, real and fake religious and ritual music and sound from around the world, at least one piece of sacred choral music composed by a strict atheist, testimonies from various people as to various alleged facts of existence, and more besides. We leave it to the listener to sort all this out and decide what, if anything, holds water.

TERMINAL EVENING #9 | STRAY APPARITIONS

Diverse phenomena including (but not limited to) fleeting movements in peripheral vision, memories and thoughts which surface (or resurface) unbidden and unwanted, anything that floats through perceptual space without warning (especially when barely sensed), failures of absence marking out the borders of various uncanny valleys and the aimlessly drifting occupants of any number of supposedly empty spaces... To be listened to in total darkness without distractions.

FREQUENCIES FOR COLLAPSE #2

Produced for LaFaceB.live, July 2023.

TERMINAL EVENING #8 | LITTLE BIRDS HAVE FAST HEARTS

Herein a selection of works by the late Peter Brötzmann in collaboration with a variety of international luminaries. Needless to say there's no way a figure of this stature can be squeezed into such a small space as this, but I've attempted to represent as much as possible the breadth and diversity of Brötzmann's work over the years, with a focus on relatively recent recordings, as I do very much believe he was only improving with age. Play at maximum volume.

FREQUENCIES FOR COLLAPSE #1

The first in a series of mixes produced for LaFaceB.live .
