Enregistré live aux studios de la radio VPRO en 2002, field recordings, guitare et laptop...
Where the skies meet the far-reaching electronics of guitar, laptop, sine waves and other organic percussion on the brink of a nervous breakdown. Recorded live in a garden hotel across the street from Amsterdam's VPRO radio studios, Davis has captured a warm and inviting contemporary spirit. Davis uses Cycling 74's MAX/MSP software on his Mac to daring effect. His dreamy "Field3" makes for an afternoon lullabye that just gently streams right into the exquisite ambient passages on "Serein." As usual the folks at Staalplaat wanted to make an impression with the cover art to this series and have chosen a purple wallpaper looking candy wrap foil silk-screened with a mustard yellow. At about 45 minutes in length, this limited edition release of 600 is empowered by its duplicity to be both very digital and analogue in its approach. "At My Window" sounds like the Dylan Group or High Llamas not taking themselves to seriously. Whizzing motors, taut drumskins, ethereal drones all play a complex part in the making of this recording which leaves a lot to the imagination. Isn't that what good music should do?
