about

The atmosphere for this project was inspired by '70s British horror/sci-fi. Throw in a plethora of sounds and a variation of styles and it shows the true diversity of Ross Baker. Their work goes back to the mid 90’s with a number of aliases including International Debris. On Borderlands, you are taken on a journey to remember with their debut release on Waxing Crescent Records.

I arrive at a gate. It is quite tall, and made of meshed wire. Once again, I am oblivious to the temperature of the sun, and a chill passes through me. Curiously, the gate is unlocked, and I find myself entering the complex. There are tall towers, and small office-like buildings. None have windows. I decide to take a look around some more. I walk inbetween buildings, around buildings and behind buildings. Eventually, I find a door. Once again, my curiosity outwits my common sense, and I enter. The room is completely empty. The walls are painted in a dull colour. There is nothing inside. As I exit, the weather has changed. It is now even cooler, this time it is the temperature that chills me rather than my other senses. I look at my digital watch, to see that a whole day has passed since I last checked it. Surely it cannot have taken me a day to walk from the town. I walk out to the more open areas again, to look around. It all looks the same. There is more open areas again, to look around. It all looks the same. There is more of a wind blowing, and the sky is cloudy. I walk back to look at the room. I cannot find the door. I am not quite sure where it was, but I check every passageway, and fail to find the room I entered which seemed to take a day from me. I look around outside again, and find another gate. This seems to be leading out onto a moor. My mind springs back to the previous day, when I was in a similar place. I step out, cautiously.

Fascinating chat with Mr. Concretism. Great to hear about his synths and software and the track by track analysis of The Concretism Archive vol.1 adds to the listening experience - more of that sort of thing please! Infinite Tapes

Jilk - Welcome Lies
by Castles in Space Subscription Library

This entire album is staggeringly good, but my favourite is Slowly Coming Together, which does indeed seem to slowly distill all that is Jilk into one track. Amazing work, and wonderful to come across through the subscription library. swansither
