GREYSCALE series launched

 WLED: 001.2010

We are pleased and proud to introduce the first release in our Greyscale series of ultra minimal works. Inspired in part by the purist, and reductionist releases on Bernhard Gunther’s Trente Oiseaux imprint of the early 1990′s, the Greyscale series will focus on simple, elegant sound works by prominent and upcoming artists.

The first release features the work of field recording maestro,  Simon Whetham.  Entitled “Restricted Access”,  this 60 minute piece is an epic sonic journey consisting of enigmatic atmopherics collected at industrial sites that have fallen into decay and disuse. These now deserted spaces in Estonia still resonate with the imprint of former industrial activity, and Whetham’s skill is in evoking an atmosphere of utter desolation, injected with sparse,  melancholic drones interspersed with taut, melodramatic scrapes, rumbles and splinters. 

Once again, this release will be a highly sought after edition of 100 copies only. The CD comes attached to a single grey card insert, housed in a  translucent metallised foil wallet.
