Carr's Fever Dreams is a fine attempt to extract the dull noise of the city and the inner buzz within everyone, with the worry but also the dazzle that accompanies it.
Excellent review of Fever Dreams, my record on Mana (in French)

『August in the water Music for Film 1995-2005』イギリスのロンドンにあるMana Recordさんから今日発売されました。これから日本でも発売されると思います。私の初期作品から選びました。それもアナログ盤です。この時代のシンセはレコードで聴くと最高です。是非聴いてください。

サウンドアーティストKate Carrの傑作ソロLP。フィールドレコーディングや物音を多用したミックス的構造ですが、素材のセレクトと配置が非常に優れており、オペラの逆再生、ゴング、水中の音、静電気といった無関係のサウンドでシネマティックな情景を作り上げる事に成功。

まるで、Gas meets Chris Watson?? Flaming Pinesの運営者であり、Helen Scarsdale AgencyやGlistening Examplesといった実験的レーベルからのリリースも知られる女性フィールド・レコーディング作家、Kate CarrがManaから最新アルバム『Fever Dreams』をアナログ・リリース。meditations.jp/products/kate-…

Kate Carr's rich sound ecology captures the decay and grot of the inner city on a surreal and highly evocative new album via the eminently watchable Mana

Highly immersive retro-futurism tipped if yr into Chris Watson, J.G. Ballard Philip Jeck

I got a new album out today via the great team Mana They describe it so: “A gothic dub and dark ambience that hangs heavily in the air; noise and muffled secrets from the next room over.” Vinyl and digital.
