various artists
format: CD (coomb02)
In March 2002, Coombe records began a monthly event - midRange - dedicated to minimal and electronic sound artists working within the realms of electronica, mellow acoustic instrumental, ambient and field recordings and other forms of guitar and lo-fi music, shaping a sublime turbid undertone of moods, listenable in a silent - audience participating - environment. There were many artists creating this kind of music but limited outlets for them to be heard in concentrated surroundings.
Coombe have now compiled a cd of the artists who performed live at midRange or have been involved with us at some point to contribute some of their music to appear on this special limited edition compilation.
The cd will feature Midnight?s Silent Repose [UK], Yoshio Machida [Japan], Brown Sierra [UK], Dual [UK], . m u r m e r . [US], iD [UK], Paul Hood/Katsura Mouri [UK/Japan], Troum [Germany], Motion [UK], G. Richardson [UK], Slow Sound System/Posset [UK], Karina ESP [UK].
The artists appearing on this compilation form an exploration of the creative collision between a sound environment and the individual mind, originating a sculpture of layered and minimal gliding harmonies performed via live instruments, or constructed through self made objects and producing unique and engaging timbres. Often resembling incidental music for film, creating a brooding emotional response, this compilation captures a mélange of mood and imagination.
