about

"There's tension in the air and the birds are quiet. The day is dull, life is still. Haunting cassette hiss fills the room. Outside, the children are screaming in agony but muffled whispers are all that comes out. Was that your first lover's voice? Another flashback from unremembered youth? There's a fire crackling in the old castle and ghosts dance in the ballroom. And you pass by the church but there's no one there... Preslav Literary School is dedicated to tape collage and endless rearrangements of outsider noise and found sound." Full of Nothing.

"'Francis Servain Mirkovic' starts very quietly and builds into a sixteen minute celestial, harmonious drone. 'Yvan Deroy' also has a slow fade in, begining it's fourteen minute journey with a choral feel, the atmosphere of Gregorian Monks, before adopting a harmonious drone but this time more meloncholic and inward looking. It plays like an old wax cylinder of pumped organ music. Deep and beautiful stuff." MuhMur.

"Essential." Lend Me Your Ears.

"La Réflexion Du Tir" was recorded by Adam Thomas in Berlin, "with thanks to alabaster tenements, sonic phosphorescence, supreme courts, branch creation, Cap-Vert Peninsula, reticulating splines, magic martyrs."

about

As Preslav Literary School, Adam Thomas makes live tape collages using sounds drawn from an ever-growing archive of self- ... more generated or discovered outsider noise, found sound and spoken word cassettes. A process of transference, overdubbing and live manipulation reworks these source materials into compelling, ambient broadcasts. less
