I found myself going through Christian Fennesz’s back catalogue again somewhat recently and was struck by the power of one particularly distinct, though perhaps somewhat boring, association with this album especially. It would have been 2011, […]

Ben Frost – Steel Wound (Room40, 2003) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2021/01/10/ben-frost-steel-wound/ Sun, 10 Jan 2021 16:31:38 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=3435 Over Christmas I took a few walks around my alma mater, the University of Birmingham, just a short walk from where my family lives now. Although my family home has never been more proximal to the place I spent the final years of my education, I very rarely visit the campus when I return home. It […]

Still Harbours – Armature (ROHS!, 2020) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2020/12/01/still-harbours-armature/ Tue, 01 Dec 2020 21:26:04 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=3437 Every time I take a pause from writing, reviewing, whatever this is, I find the difficulty factor in returning escalates with every day that passes. It’s probably just rust, the necessary gears between the expressive and, well, hearing and feeling parts of my brain seizing up in the interim. But, what if it wasn’t? There’s something about […]

Marble Sky – Sway (Monorail Trespassing, 2009) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2020/06/07/marble-sky-sway/ Sun, 07 Jun 2020 19:24:55 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=3294 Have you ever gone outside in a strong wind and found yourself fighting to remain upright? At the brow of a hill perhaps, wobbling gently as you intuitively resist the air pressure swirling around you. Or maybe found yourself wading across a stream, body pushing against the steady current and its eddies, stopping briefly to […]

Still Harbours – Fluorochrome (Ambientologist, 2020) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2020/04/07/still-harbours-fluorochrome/ Tue, 07 Apr 2020 19:51:53 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=3247 There’s something fascinating about fluorescence in nature, the chemical and physical processes that cause substances to re-emit absorbed light at a different wavelength. They have taken in this external energy, modified it internally, and ejected it in a changed state. It’s intriguing both from the scientific and technical background that causes this property to arise, […]

Anthéne – Weightless (Home Normal, 2019) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2019/05/07/anthene-weightless/ Tue, 07 May 2019 20:39:55 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=3120 When you reach the peak of a parabola, there is an instant of micro-gravity, of weightlessness. Right at the height of the arc, just before the swing into the downward plunge, you’re in suspension in a period of freefall. Mirrored on both sides by a long uphill struggle on the one hand and a steep […]

Kyle Bobby Dunn – From Here To Eternity (PITP, 2019) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2019/04/27/kyle-bobby-dunn-from-here-to-eternity/ Sat, 27 Apr 2019 15:42:55 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=3112 Five and a half years ago, the cat died. It’s difficult for some people to understand the damage that losing a pet has, people that don’t own animals don’t understand that bonding: I knew him for 14 years, hard to believe now. After that length of time they’re not just pets, mere animals, they’re friends […]

Fennesz – Agora (Touch, 2019) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2019/04/15/fennesz-agora/ Mon, 15 Apr 2019 16:00:00 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=3104 To stay at home is to feel safe, avoiding having to confront the endless barrage of social interactions and the anxieties of navigating this modern, labyrinthine world. Like most fears, it’s been named, been labelled: agoraphobia. Sufferers will know the feeling of stress it induces all too well, of the ways in which they work […]

Lee Yi – Dissimilar Lake Pigments (Rottenman Editions, 2018) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2019/01/16/lee-yi-dissimilar-lake-pigments-rottenman-editions-2018/ Wed, 16 Jan 2019 18:27:58 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=3065 My mum’s been quilting for about 2 years now, and she’s made quite a few pieces in that time: I’m partially underneath one of them now in fact, an earlier work of simple, gradated colour blocks. I’ve been grateful for it, not just because it’s helped keep myself and others surprisingly warm, but also because […]

Anthéne – Divisions (ROHS!, 2018) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2018/08/21/anthene-divisions/ Tue, 21 Aug 2018 18:02:48 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=2954 At what point does something become light or dark? It’s easy to point at something in a steady state and make an observation, but for something in flux, when does the crossover happen on the continuum of change? At what point in the sunrise is night relegated? Divisions makes me muse over this notion of dividing lines […]
