It’s a thought that’s crossed my mind many times in the past, with my tendency to (over)intellectualise romance. Because, what if it’s true and I’ve already met my person, let them slip through my fingers? Or is it worse that no such person exists, either for me […]

I suspect this originated watching Tarkovsky films, whose use of colour in landscapes scenes is intoxicating to me, and then further entrenched following a return to the familial homeland of Ireland.

In 7 pieces we’re provided a series of gentle, simple, haunting loops that do the Minimalist some justice, and paint a picture of his strange and enigmatic romantic life and heartbreak. Piano […]
