Release Notes:
Summer's Wet Work Is Done goes in one ear, and freezes in the other.
Viul (pronounced vell) is the project of Michigan-born, DC-based Luke
Entelis whose previous two songs on Moodgadget's ambient music
compilation, Expanse at Low Levels, set up the anticipation for this
hypothermic debut EP. Opening song "Baltic Sea" lowers your hearing's
temperature with a shivering sound, and begins a three stage process
for freezing audio to death. As the hypothermia saying goes, "You
aren't dead until you're warm and dead." The third track "Coma Kid"
creates an artificial warmth sensation that tricks your system into
thinking you've recovered from the cold, but the reality is that you
are now heading into stage two.
The arctic condition of this album provides an indefinite, if not near
infinite, longevity to the frostbitten experience in Benoit Pioulard's
Dulcimer version of "Strands to Stream through Yet." Being too tired to
shiver anymore, stage three's closing track "Wound Cotton Wound" will
lull you towards sleep, and the moonlit glow rising over the spiky
ridge on the album's frozen cover entices you to let go. Alex Koplin
designed the album's artwork based on Dylan Entelis' (Viul's brother)
bravura photograph taken in Iceland. Image and sound are solidified in
Summer's Wet Work is Done so much that this seven track EP could be
considered an example of musical cryopreservationùstoring your ears in
a audio state that only future Viul releases' could resuscitate.
