Lovely review of my latest work!

[wovenloop]

New album coming soon

Very proud and honoured to be releasing my forthcoming new work on the very lovely Twiceremoved records. 'Fall, Rise' is a personal account of an experience I encountered during a winter trip to the Alps in France around 10 years ago. The work sets out to capture the loneliness and fear of surroundings in an almost beautiful setting. 

The album will be released on my birthday, 8th July, 2014 and will mark a new beginning for Gavin Catling and Twiceremoved.

It will be available via BandCamp as well as online in digital and CD digipack.

I hope you enjoy the work and thank you as always for the support you've all given me, it means the world!!

Rich.

Here is the latest project I've had the pleasure of being involved in, the Instagram Ambient project, commissioned by Marc Weidenbaum of Disquiet fame.

Here is some text about the project.

An Introduction to Instagr/am/bient:

Photos shared with the popular software Instagram are usually square in format, not unlike the cover to a record album. The format leads inevitably to a question: if a given image were the cover to a record album, what would the album’s music sound like?

Instagr/am/bient is a response to that question. The project involves 25 musicians with ambient inclinations. Each of the musicians contributed an Instagram photo, and in turn each of the musicians recorded an original track in response to one of the photos contributed by another of the project’s participants. The tracks are sonic postcards. They are pieces of music whose relative brevity—all are between one and three minutes in length—is designed to correlate with the economical, ephemeral nature of an Instagram photo.

The result of the 25 musicians’ collective efforts is an investigation into the intersection of technology, aesthetics, and artistic process. What parallels exist, for example, between the visual filters that Instagram provides users to transform their photos and the sound-processing tools employed by electronic musicians?

In many cases here, the musicians employ sonic field recordings as source material for their music. In the case of both their photos and their compositions (photography in one case, phonography in the other), documents are altered to emphasize their atmospheric qualities: to eke a modest art out of the everyday.
