Twinkles... Colleen is the queen of it but alas she hasn't had a sex change. It's Dale Berning taking the twinkle crown this week. Although they could be royalty. The king and queen of twinkles ruling the land of twinklelsville where unicorns roam free and the dog poop on the street is actually made of organic fairtrade chocolate. 'The Horse and Camel Stories' has the man in full on twinkle mode. All malfunctioning music boxes. It's like a big pretty lullabye. Dreamy snoozeville ambient lushness. Originally appeared on vinyl on the Bo Weevil label and now on CD through Tokyo's Flau label.

What their label says...

The Horse and Camel Storiesis a collection of soundtracks by dale  
berning. track 1 to 14 were originally compossed for Hiraki Sawa’s film  
Going Places Titting Down, these tracks are released as The Horse  
Stories on vinyl on Bo'Weavil Recordings in 2006.

For the soundtrack dale used sounds belonging to the country house and  
garden in which Sawa filmed - water running in the upstairs bathroom;  
rain water dripping on the stones, sparkling water in a glass, the  
wind-chime and the clock and the record player... And then the sounds  
of music boxes being played. At the core of all dale berning’s sound  
work lies a deep interest in ideas of aliveness, of space and the  
awareness of time passing, of breathing and being still and of  
listening. And of the possibility of grace.

The Horse and Camel Stories is included 5 bonus tracks. "flock" is a  
soundtrack for a film by Stephanie Caw and the soundtrack for another  
film by Hiraki Sawa: Trail, which was at the Yokohama Triennale 2005.  
It is composed of 3 tracks entitled "walking a circle", "caravansérail"  
and "a hree-pane window".all beautiful compositions are all variations  
on the same theme.
