Imaginative re-workings and improvisations by Andrew Tuttle of the late great Michael Chapman’s unfinished instrumental album.
Sonic explorations that bridge the Southern and Northern Hemisphere via the Caribbean, remote Northumberland and sub-tropical Australia. Navigating calm seas and turbulent waters of ambient corals, new-age pirates, waves of lapping banjos and drifting eroding guitars.
“a kind of drowned world, an aquatic space in which guitars are sampled and sustained into drones, creating glassy shimmering mirrors of sound.” The Wire
“Tuttle locates the beauty, complexity, joy and decay within Chapman’s demos and opens them out into a new kind of collage-kosmische, finding the European psychedelic resonances in Chapman’s multilayered blues patterns and reworking them for some kind of grand, universal eternity.” MOJO
“ an unusual collaboration of evocative, ambient marvels” The Guardian
