Steve Hadfield – See the World Anew Vol. 2 – See Blue Audio
Apart from love and hate what else is permanent in our throwaway culture. If you were to ask me I would have to say music, but then I am biased in that direction. It will also come as no surprise that I’m reviewing this latest work from Steve Hadfield who I have an ever increasing…

f5point6 – The Shuttle Leaves at Midnight – See Blue Audio
Art for me is sometimes about what happens next. Not so much what you see in a given moment captured but what story unfolds in the next frame. The unseen, the unknown. Whether that is getting lost inside a conceived picture or photograph or being subsumed by pieces of music it remains about the excitement…

Simon McCorry – Flow – See Blue Audio
Pressing play at first seems like a perfectly natural thing to do but as you are drawn deeper into the mind-set of Flow 01 things start to feel strange and uneven. Like floating in space or in the depths of an ocean the sounds surround your psyche, feeding back, supporting and reassuring you like a…

Steve Hadfield – See the World Anew Vol. 1 – See Blue Audio
I’m at a loss for words which isn’t perhaps surprising as music is about feeling. Steve Hadfield’s new long player for See Blue Audio is typically emotional in any case so that doesn’t cause too much concern. As sounds unfold telling their own story so does the human response to it all and by the…

f5point6 – KaleidoSound: Time, Shape & Space Vol. 2 – See Blue Audio
The completing piece of R.Cleveland Aaron’s journey into the jigsaw of sound doesn’t feel like a conclusion. More like an old friend departing to find something else to do. I will miss these oddly tempting escapes into unknown territory as you never know who, what or where is going to happen or occur next in…

Simon McCorry – Nature in Nature – See Blue Audio
Is it possible to overanalyse sound? Does that detach yourself from a more pure response to what you are hearing? Casting aside the thought for a moment Simon McCorry’s series of productions for this release each redefine the art of listening as layers of subsequent suggestion build upon, while sometimes tearing apart, what has gone…

f5point6 – KaleidoSound Time, Shape & Space Vol. 1 – See Blue Audio
Listening to KaleidoSound is like watching time and space unravel into the ether of expectation. A strangely beguiling yet wonderful explanation of the fusion of particles floating, charging throughout the airwaves as elements reach into the darkness, grasping at the light, acting very much like the damaged reflection of this year. That holy/ unholy alliance…

Steve Hadfield – Displacement Activity Vol. 3 – See Blue Audio
The third instalment in the series of timely disruptions from Steve Hadfield reflects the time we live in as all good Art could and should. Saying something without the use of words may seem daunting but in the hands of creative minds that doesn’t seem to be a barrier to good intention, much as is…

f5point6 – KaleidoSound: Time, Space & Frequencies Vol. 2 – See Blue Audio
I was listening to a discussion on the nature of Art and it was said that artists reflect the times around them. I think creators of note do, while others repeat the past under the guise of authenticity. I want to listen to music that informs emotionally, sonically and politically – the personal is political,…
