PAUL BRADLEY & COLIN POTTER
'THE SIMPLE PLAN
'

Recorded and completed at the end of 2008 and on into the first months of 2009, ´The Simple Plan´ offers a change in focus from previous collaborations between these two artists.
Comprising five tracks, ´The Simple Plan´ is purely instrumental, recorded in real-time and subjected to only minimal digital processing.
Before recording began, the decision was made to create a simpler, more organic piece of work, using computers only sparingly to record the tracks and help with arrangements. There was to be no extended manipulation of sounds, so what you hear, is basically what was played together with no overdubbing and captured live in the studio as both artists alternated between playing vintage synthesizers (the active use of synthesizers being a first for Paul Bradley) and guitars whilst being aided by a selection of new and classic effects pedals. Although not completely analogue in realisation, it was analogue in its intent.
All at once harmonious and dissonant, melodic and atonal, calming and animated, these juxtapositions marked the beginning of significant new chapters in the personal lives of both artists and this influenced the work to an almost undeniable degree and is something that subsequently underpins the fundamental nature and feel of ´The Simple Plan´. There is somehow an abstract sense of desire and resolve that although never initially intended as a concept, naturally informed the final recordings.
The first 135 special edition copies come with a bonus disc of additional tracks titled ´Accretion´ which offers reworkings of the original recordings where the rules that governed the original sessions were not applied. ´Accretion´ is therefore quite a different selection of pieces offering alternative combinations and views of the original

MONOS
'ABOVE THE SKY
'

Finally the ‘new’ album from Monos sees the light of day. Spanning a period of almost four years and involving their one and only public performance, the trio of Darren Tate, Colin Potter and Paul Bradley finally agree that everything is where it should be and the CD is released. Two long contrasting tracks; the familiar and unfamiliar, the context changed, the final result very different, yet at the same time completely natural and cohesive.

There is a special edition of 135 copies which come with an extra full-length disc.

Both albums are available together for £15.00, or individually at £10.00 for the main disc and £8.00 for the bonus disc.




Trajectories

PHIL MOULDYCLIFF & COLIN POTTER
TRAJECTORIES

Phil Mouldycliff was contacted by Dave Carson with a view to making a work based on the unique wildlife of this very isolated island in the Pacific Ocean. This resulted in Phil visiting the island to absorb the environment & make many hours of field recordings. The final work will be an audio-visual show designed to be shown in domed structures & planetaria. The field recordings were taken back to IC Studio where Phil & Colin Potter processed them & mixed them with female voice and piano interpretations of birdsong. As unlikely a this sounds, the end result is an album which sounds simultaneously electronic/synthetic & natural. Hopefully this conveys the nature of the island from an unusual tangent.


APM - Sprint Mill

APM
Sprint Mill

New CD by Chris Atkins, Colin Potter & Phil Mouldycliff.
Based on field recordings made at the site of the studio workshop of artist Edward Acland.
As near to perfect production as you can find that captures the spirit of a person and a place.
Sprint Mill, Edward Acland’s studio and workspace, stands at a southern gateway for the traveller who pauses before entering the paradigmatic terrain of the Lake District in Cumbria. The waters that start high in the upper fells of deepest Lakeland tumble and fall past the site of the nineteenth century mill and its environs before joining other rivers and flowing on through to the sea at Morecambe Bay.
The journey of the waters of the River Sprint stand opposed to the archaeology of Sprint Mill that breathes a melancholia of industry past. The intimacy of the mill living alongside its restless aquatic partner is best captured through a sonic landscape. This triple collaboration between Colin Potter, Phil Mouldycliff and Chris Atkins arises through site visits, field recording, ruminations and production works that come together to seamlessly evoke a land that time forgot, almost.

Written on Water

Phil Mouldycliff
Written on Water

Although his career as a multi-disciplinary artist spans over thirty years, Phil Mouldycliff is probably best known for his collaborative work with Colin Potter and Keith Rowe from 2003 to present. This is his first solo album of sound works and represents aspects of current working practice. “Nocturne”, “Kettleblack” and “Spirit of Place” are all single-take recordings based on an ongoing concern with “Conjectured Landscapes”. “The Stillness of Chinese Jars” and “The Groaner” are two examples of his fascination with the interface between traditional instrumentation and environmental sounds. “A Speculative Atlas” is a truncated version of a piece created in response to the sextet, which is featured in David Mitchell’s novel Cloud Atlas. These selected pieces are culled from a much larger body of works designed for use in found sound/object installations.

Far Black Furlong
Far Black Furlong

'Far Black Furlong' is a rapturous, symphonic work in six movements. The music describes tides - from the summer breeze through barley, to the shimmering stretch of a vast ocean extending to the shifting birth pangs of stars. Much of the music was recorded at outdoor locations - such as the barley fields of the Clun Forest - and is performed on acoustic instruments. FBF comprise of baroque oboist Mark Baigent, composer Richard Moult, dulcimer player John Letcher, the Candian flautist Amanda Votta (of the group The Floating World), Shropshire poet Bryony Lees, guitarist Ian Tengwall  & Andy Cotterill on electronics.
