Muura / Plantation. Split c80

Matt Earle’s chiming plen air side has a gorgeous Mosque ambiance that’s softly punctuated by a cycle of muffled vocal recitations shrouded in Adhan-like decay. Nothing much else like the rainfall fidelity and oneiric hiss of this one - it’s both a candid yet otherworldly and distant sonic zone, scattered with the glissandi cadence and cetacean spurt of peripheral traffic and remote, pedestrian mirth. First and last recording by Plantation, probably because they change their name every day? It’s Lakers and IRD kind of doing the Four Foundations of Mindfulness thing. First track is ineffable Sireny celebration rock. Second one’s kindling punk, contrapuntal recorder whirl and elfin loop that goes to your face. Third is vibes, drums, tape and miniature koto. Fourth is really cool. Dungeon Taxis 10
