ALL NATURES MOST MUNDANE MATERIALS

Description

A Colorful Storm proudly presents a first remastered vinyl edition of Lone Capture Library's modern DIY environmental masterpiece, All Natures Most Mundane Materials. "Environmental"? Although this piece was certainly not recorded for dinner ambiance nor commissioned by Harrods, it documents a random walk through the English countryside, feeling the air and the earth, breaking free from confinement and trying to make sense of it all. Its protagonist is Rory Salter, London's restless and extraordinary improviser, who has contributed to dozens of solo and collaborative releases in an ecosystem derived from his private press Infant Tree. Under his pseudonym Malvern Brume, he is responsible for some of the most enchanting aspects of contemporary musique concrète that have graced our ears: drifts revealing beauty and curiosity within London's urban banality. And while we argue that Lone Capture Library applies this approach but seeks the particular in the pastoral, there is also a certain hermetic recklessness, with its disruptive details and abandoned sonic bric-a-brac.
