mike cooper: white shadows in the south seas

ltd repress. A blend of ambient, exotica and field recordings, inspired by Frederick O'Brien's travel book. 'Twilit dreams spanning Pacific shores in pulsing waves of richly-coloured rythyms, tropical sound fields and Polynesian-inspired slide guitar. Moving deconstructively beyond a passion for Islander kitsch, this is a unique, self-questioning kind of Blues, infused with other musics, bearing witness to the complexities of relationships between Islander people and visitors.' First time out on vinyl; in silk-screened sleeves, with metallic ink.
