This album features just one synthesizer - a Buchla 208C Easel Command,
processed with various effects pedals. It enabled a minimalist approach,
focusing purely on tone and atmosphere. Something about the raw sound
of this amazing instrument led to thoughts of moons in our solar system:
there's something utterly otherworldly and yet oddly familiar about the sound
of the Easel - it often sounds more organic than electronic and is
simultaneously beautiful and mysterious, huge and delicate.
Working immersively over a period of a few weeks, the place
frequently arrived at, in the mind's eye, was standing on the
surface of one of the moons of Jupiter, or perhaps observing
a satellite of Uranus transit across its host planet...a symphony
of waxing and waning, colours and patterns across the darkness of space.
This soon became a focal point for the record, reflected in the track titles
& overall aesthetic, which was then taken to another level with Nick's
incredible artwork realisation. This album is a journey mapping strange
and beautiful worlds, that whilst close to home, remain tantalisingly
just out of reach, except for in photographs, illustrations and of course,
our imagination. Our dreams.
