| Info: | Earthshine is the sunlight
reflected from the earth's surface that illuminates the dark part of
the moon not directly lit by the sun. Earthshine, the album, unfolds as abstract electronic soundscapes carried on a surreal, buoyant current. The 20 short tracks crossfade into one another to form a continuous sonic journey. Layers of processed drones and sequencer pulses alternately rise into expressive statements and subside into hushed, sparse moments, shaping visual impressionistic inner expanses. The magic here is the way the album shifts and transforms as the elements combine. As a metaphor, earthshine evokes concealed beauty and indirect influence, the ability to sense the whole beyond the immediately visible. It speaks to casting light into another's darkness, to exposing resilience through openness, and to the subtle, enduring effect of unseen support. Earthshine reveals a spacious and timbral side of Wøllo's work. The album was recorded to analog 4 and 8 track tape machines then transferred to computer for further arranging and mixing. Returning to tape altered Wøllo's compositional approach: the slower, more deliberate workflow encouraged new methods, allowing sounds to breathe and loosen. ?? "When the tape is running," Erik reflects, "something affects me, I descend into myself, realizing music completely in the moment. I wanted to go back to the way of recording I was into in the 1980s, using old analog tape recorders. How would it affect my compositional process? Would it take me in other compositional directions? Compare it to writing a novel with a pencil instead of a computer. The unhurried measured approach was more time-consuming and led me to make different creative choices. It turned out that the music became more fluid and open-ended." The analog medium imparted warm saturation and subtle harmonic coloration, adding depth and silkiness to the mixes; the instrumental elements merge with organic cohesion. With an emphasis on deep tones and interlaced ambient tributaries, Wøllo sculpts a vivid listening experience for the imagination. Earthshine is an investigation of mood, surface and narrative, a compelling statement extending the boundaries of electronic expression. |
