Verse & Chorus

 


released April 16, 2021  digital release
 
An exquisite corpse of an "I” played out in a multiplicity of voices, VERSE & CHORUS is an experimental act of collaborative reworking that quilts cuts from two manuscripts into an imagined third object (collaging verses from Nadia de Vries' and Dominic Jaeckle's forthcoming poetry collections with Dostoyevsky Wannabe, respectively I FAILED TO SWOON and 36 EXPOSURES). Scored by found sounds, borrowed songs and original music from Matthew Shaw, Mark Lanegan and Duke Garwood, VERSE & CHORUS carries readings from Nadia de Vries; Cíntia Gil; Diamanda La Berge Dramm; Mark Lanegan; Stanley Schtinter; Becket Flannery; and Vilde Valerie Bjerke Torset in an exchange of ideas, images and allusions.

I believe he's creating some of the finest ambient drone in the UK at the moment and is essential listening for anyone of who enjoys the genre. Black and white cover photographs by Matthew.
