█ From the label: █
█ ôAn Idea of north / learning to walkö is the latest album from UK sound █
█ and visual artist Mark Harris. Back in the winter of 2010 he found █
█ himself snowed-in due to a unusual flurry of extreme weather. Finding █
█ himself suddenly isolated in his studio he sat down and composed, in one █
█ take, the main passage for ôAn Idea of Northö which is very evocative of █
█ his sense of isolation and the experienced weather patterns. Taking this █
█ passage as a jumping off point for further improvisations, which in █
█ Harris' words ôseamlessly merge together to give the impression of a █
█ journey through various environments / landscapes (both physical and █
█ emotional) gradually moving from the familiar to the more extreme / █
█ isolated and 'darker' spaces and then gradually returning 'home' at the █
█ end of the pieceö. ôAn Idea of north / learning to walkö is Mastered by █
█ Bobby Bird (Higher Intelligence Agency) and is a highly recommended █
█ album for people that enjoy long form works of glacial Ambient and █
█ Electro-acoustic intimacy. █
