RC001 – Beginnings – Waiting on the Weather

Beginnings – Waiting on the Weather is out now on Rural Colours.

Beginnings is the alias and solo project of experimental musician Jon Frost, who creates drifting soundscapes with electric guitar and laptop synths. On this his first official release, Jon adopted a semi-improvised approach by recording passages of solo guitar on-the-fly, then later arranging them with electronic layers of tone, harmony and noise to create a sound that is full of shifting textures and ambient melancholy, designed to accompany the waiting moments of any given day.

Hibernate Recordings: Personal Selections

Dan from Fluid radio recently asked me to approach artists from the label to be involved in this alternative mix… The idea was to get each artist to delve into their record/cd collections and select one track that resonates with them in a deep and personal way.

New Tom White release

From My Dance The Skull – “Tom White’s latest cassette tape release for MDTS titled False Ponds more than lives up to this young artists already formidable output. White creates the type of music that intersects noise, dissonance and isolationist angst. Summoning Ballardian imagery throughout, the two sides of this immensely addictive release employee’s lo-fi tape loops, field recordings, guitar fragments and feedback in what is a deeply unique and personal auditory mosaic.”
