æSlow Films In Low LightÆ is a
collection of remixes and re-workings by
friends and artists from my now deleted
album æSoundtrack To A Film In My Head
Which Will Never Get MadeÆ. The original
album was released on the lovely Rope
Swing Cities but I decided I wanted it
to be a temporary release given the
nature of the album. RSC and I decided
to do a small release to coincide with
the original, as a limited run CD-R
featuring re-workings and remixes of the
pieces by friends, namely The Remote
Viewer, Geskia!, Ten and Tracer and Pan
Am Scan.
Over time it became apparent that this
project needed to spread its wings, and
with lots of support from the lovely
Yasuhiko Fukuzono (Aus), and other close
friends, I decided to ask more friends
to join in with the project. IÆm so
lucky that all the friends I wanted and
asked agreed to be involved, creating
highly unique pieces from the original
sources (sometimes changing them
completely). As such I suddenly found
myself with this amazing album,
featuring past, present and future Home
Normal, Tokyo Droning and Nomadic Kids
Republic artists and good friends.
The grand result is a really nice review
of where Home Normal is at in some ways
I guess, as well as highlighting where I
am at musically too, albeit through the
voices of others who know me. One of the
results of these artists giving their
time and enormous talents so freely to
this was that I decided that this
release should be for charity.
In 1982 my father set up The Archway
Foundation, a charity that focused on
helping those in various walks of life
who are deeply affected by loneliness.
They hold weekly social events, organise
dinners, visits, drivers to take people
to places and all sorts of support work.
I grew up attending and helping out the
various events, but have less to do with
them after my parentÆs retirement and my
moving away from Oxford. In these
difficult economical times, charities,
which rely on the donations of others,
are suffering terribly. But these people
still need all the support they can get,
so I guess I just figure that, even if
itÆs a small level of support we can
provide, at least we can try.
ôWeÆre born alone, we live alone, we die
alone. Only through our love and
friendship can we create the illusion
for the moment that weÆre not alone.ö
Orson Welles
