VEKTORMUSIK:   New album release Time Woke Up In Darkness – excerpts vol.2 by Vektormusik https://vektormusik.wordpress.com/

“Originally composed for a theatrical production, Danish duo Vektormusik unfurl an ethereal, otherworldly sound that is loosely piano based, but for much of the record, the piano disappears beneath a field of static (or never appears at all). Blurred expanses of glitch and squelch are smoothed into softly staticky transmissions, laced with hushed melodies, cricket like chitter, processed guitars, whispered strings, billowy low end thrum, gristled hum, all in a state of near stasis, with buried rhythms looped and softly pulsing, smeared into indistinct, barely there throbs, the surrounding atmosphere a bleary-eared field of gauzy shimmer, shifting easily from mysterious moody murk, to crystalline collage, to crackly, abstract, almost digi-dub, but all of those sounds presented intimately, and sparsely, occasionally building to mini-crescendos, but more often than not, seemingly suspended in some strange, simple soundworld, all of their lowercase sounds woven into a dreamlike web, a sonicscape that manages to be mysterious, cinematic and sublime.” – Andee Connors (Aquarious Records)

Wil Bolton is an artist working predominantly with sound, sometimes enhanced with video and photography. His work combines electronic tones with digitally processed acoustic sounds including field recordings and musical instruments. Bolton has produced several site-specific commissions and am particularly interested in the resonance of spaces, their history and atmosphere, and wider notions of place and memory.

Recent works include: Treatments and Textures, a mix of ambient and electroacoustic music for Tate Liverpool’s Sculpture Remixed collection display; Binary, a commission for the National Trust manor house Oxburgh Hall, in which the venue’s Victorian wallpaper was converted into sound; Chimes for a Wall Drawing, a live performance on processed chime bars, guitar and electronics which took Sol LeWitt’s Wall Drawing #1136 as an inspiration and graphic score.
