Autumn is definitely here, and is hurtling relentlessly to the crashing end of the calendar. In these abrupt melancholia-inducing conditions […]

Iglooghost – Tidal Memory Exo (LuckyMe, 2024) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2024/10/19/iglooghost-tidal-memory-exo/ https://hearfeel.co.uk/2024/10/19/iglooghost-tidal-memory-exo/#respond Sat, 19 Oct 2024 16:17:54 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=4090 The walk to and from work is a short one but the various pavements in the neighbourhood make it more tiresome than it needs to be, and are more reminiscent of patchwork quilts than pathways at times. Even after years of living here you have to be a mildly attentive walker, divided and sub-divided such […]

Clarence Clarity – VANISHING ACT II: ULTIMATE REALITY (Deluxe Pain, 2024) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2024/10/13/clarence-clarity-vanishing-act-ii-ultimate-reality/ Sun, 13 Oct 2024 10:48:42 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=4078 What year is this? Jesus Fucking Christ There’s a temptation to look back at our hominid ancestors and think of them as primitive savages, that our forebears struggled through their lives dragging their knuckles on the ground, grunting at one another and wearing a few strips of fur and leather. Of course, we are far more […]

Ben Frost – A U R O R A (Mute, 2014) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2024/09/25/ben-frost-a-u-r-o-r-a/ Wed, 25 Sep 2024 21:13:31 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=4068 It’s been ten years since Ben Frost’s third record, A U R O R A, released: ten years of, several times a year, ending up getting half-cut (if not drunk) and listening to this extremely loud. It’s what God (Ben) intended, I feel. And to answer the question pre-emptively: yes, I currently am. I did cover […]

The Sight Below – It All Falls Apart (Ghostly, 2010) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2024/09/12/the-sight-below-it-all-falls-apart/ Thu, 12 Sep 2024 20:58:08 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=4062 There’s a line in Hannah Diamond’s “Unbreakable”, the final track in her most recent LP Perfect Picture, right at the very utmost end of the album actually, where she sings: “Sometimes good things come from an ending” It’s not that I find myself drawn to this particular lyric often, rather that I feel I ruminate on finiteness […]

Tim Hecker – An Imaginary Country (Kranky, 2009) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2024/09/01/tim-hecker-an-imaginary-country/ Sun, 01 Sep 2024 18:57:50 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=4048 I haven’t been sleeping well the last couple of weeks. First I thought it was the excitement of travel, then it was the random sprinkling of hot and muggy days: now I realise it’s because of, well, you know… I close my eyes and my mind wanders, unbidden, unfocused, wanting. Eventually I slip into restless […]

Bvdub – Heartless (n5MD, 2017) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2024/08/01/bvdub-heartless/ Thu, 01 Aug 2024 20:13:29 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=4039 I’m finding it hard to write lately. Summer has historically been a slower period for HearFeel, and as the years go by my time seems to become thinner and less available for both writing and listening and it only compounds the infrequency of my posts. And although I’m cognisant of these shifts and flows within […]

Gigi Masin & Rod Modell – Red Hair Girl at Lighthouse Beach (“13”, 2023) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2024/07/10/gigi-masin-rod-modell-red-hair-girl/ Wed, 10 Jul 2024 19:31:16 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=4028 Recently I’ve found myself reflecting back on my hobbies, largely because I’ve been spending time with new people who are curious about how long I’ve been active in things like photography and music, and have been recounting these sections of my life to them as part of this fabric of knowing. And it’s quite scary […]

Mary Lattimore and Walt McClements – Rain on the Road (Thrill Jockey, 2024) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2024/05/29/mary-lattimore-and-walt-mcclements-rain-on-the-road/ Wed, 29 May 2024 20:27:24 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=4017 The Spring grasses are long in tooth now, the undergrowth green and wild after all this year’s rain and before the first big cuts by the council come to mow them back to compliance. Our garden is filled with tall swaying dandelions and leafy sycamore saplings round the edge that grow bolder every year in […]

36 – Trance Anthems For A Sunken Generation (3six Recordings, 2024) https://hearfeel.co.uk/2024/05/22/trance-anthems/ Wed, 22 May 2024 19:08:57 +0000 https://hearfeel.co.uk/?p=4008 I have a morbid fascination with Twitter (X, whatever). It is a despair hole, a nihilist’s dream-space where the most miserable people on the web come to make other people more miserable elsewhere. I appreciate it for its daily memery, and general insanity since the Musk takeover, but it is not a good place. In […]
