ib004.5 (special preorder edition)

fragments of night ib004

sadly, we found most copies of our new record to have a manufacturing error.
the manufacturer is in the process of making new copies, and we should get them in 3-4 weeks.

as a thank you to customers that have already purchased the record, and customers that preorder it, we have made a special edition *, which is the standard record with a bonus dvdr of a film titled i can feel the see falling over my head *

the video is a transcendental harmonium playing, lit only by fireplace. the sound of the harmonium gently mingles with the crackling of wood.

a copy of this fine film, as well as a download coupon, will be included with all prepayments made from now until the ship date.

thanks for the patience.

actorshippe list two

ingenting kollektiva's fragments of night now available

(mix of iboo4)

america (mediamail) $20.00 USD america (ups or priority) $26.00 USD canada $25.00 USD rest of the world $30.00 USD

finally available, after two years in the making : ingenting kollektiva's fragments of night, issued on the art of memory's label invisible birds.

ingenting kollektiva is an homage to the films of ingmar bergman and sven nykvist.
the kollektiva recordings are meditations on the quality of light, sound, and atmosphere, as well as realizations of the various forms of "nothingness" captured by these 2 masters.

christmas of 2009, the kollektiva found themselves surrounded with many recordings from the year 1969 -
including miles davis & teo macero's in a silent way and bitches brew
john surman's way back when, how many clouds can you see?, and extrapolation (with john mclauglin)
bert jansch's birthday blues
vashti bunyan's just another diamond day (recorded december 1969)
fairport convention's unhalfbricking
jan garbarek & terje rypdal's esoteric circle
king crimson's in the court of the crimson king
scott walker's scott walker 4
holger czukay's canaxis
(plus many more).

with this in mind, they recorded some songs in the lightowlers' barn during a rainstorm, and later added recordings from northern california and los angeles. the editing process then became something similar to macero's work for miles davis.

the recording has been issued as a long play record with a gatefold sleeve and photographs by tarrl lightowler. thanks so much to taylor deupree for bringing many layers & hidden sounds to life in these recordings, and arthur de eriomém for producing the album.
