Description

Vignetting The Compost partly draws on a theme of the endless cycle of life and death, of growth and decay and how the two are dependant on each other [] This album also explores the processes of pain, loss, suffering and healing, with an optimistic hopeful tone growing over the lamentation like ivy on a gravestone. Ive always been fascinated with the quality of the imagination and dreams, how edges are unfinished and indefinite, unlike the boundaries of a cinema screen. In dreams, forms and details can seem vivid yet vague, impressionistic, powerful yet difficult to recall. These were the qualities and aesthetics that I focussed on with this album, including intertwining musical vignettes amongst the more structured tracks. Bibio
