The Rush to the Sky

knightd68 in 1998 I spent a day in car driving through France. In the rough geographical middle of the country, over a period of an afternoon, and taking in a sort of twisty forest road that went on for miles, we literally encountered all 4 seasons. "Sky Episodic" plays out like that wonderful, barmy, balmy afternoon. "The Leap" is the tantalising hors d'oeuvre. Favorite track: Sky Episodic.

about

Luke Brennan is a composer and multi-instrumentalist from a seaside town called Bray in Wicklow, Ireland, now living in Hackney, east London. The Rush to the Sky comprises guitar, violin, organ, midi synth, field recordings and found sounds and was performed and constructed in both Bray and Hackney. The main inspiration came from one of the field recordings of swifts flying over Luke’s flat. He made that recording the year before and was finishing the piece a year later when those same birds were back flying overhead, giving a wonderful sense of place and time and of the season.

"Experimental ambient drone that just holds you on the precipice of unknown. [...] Sounds as if a visitor is scanning the locality...probing, learning & absorbing the vibes.."
-- Dave Barnard - Short Tokes/Inhale the Heavy

A wonderful, emergent work of simple rhythmic phrases framed by textural swashes of guitar. It's one of those great albums that manages effortless simplicity whilst nonetheless offering so much more than the sum of its parts, a soundscape orientated by unusual dynamic and structural choices.

This heady trio cranks out driving, electronic-tinged power jazz. It's a raucous party that's a bit free and a touch punk. Bandcamp New & Notable Jan 20, 2015
