Another hour, another Brian Grainger CD, ironically entitled 'Humidity'. 'Something to herald the end of the Summer and the beginning of Autumn' is what the press thingy says, which is obviously bollocks now since we're in the middle of bloody winter but if you get one in now at least you're set for next year. I'm sure you know the drill, it's a long ambienty droney track in that style that he's pretty much made his own. Starting with near silence, it builds at a glacial pace to a noisy crescendo before morphing into a blaring organ and then back down to nothing, it never sounds like much on (internet) paper but fans will know how well he does it. 3" CD only on Milieu Music.
Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
What their label says...
Something to herald the end of the Summer and the beginning of Autumn. A very melodic ambient piece called "Humidity" that sits very much in the same vein as records like Of The Apple or Eight Thousander. Lots of deep buried tonalities under cloudy chords and a really textural field recording of some of the rain that Brian's city has gotten along with the recent hurricanes. Guitars and organ pedalbass, limited to 100 copies!
