Memory Wire - Aura
My ambient electronic duo with Jim Tetlow Memory Wire released our 6th album. We've been cooking this one up over the last year and one track we've been polishing for 2 years. We went for a different direction here - really delicate ambient music in which it is not obvious what instrument is being used. Unlike previous albums where there would be flute, voice, or theremin sections, we wanted to blur the edges and create atmospheric music with pads, drones, treated live sounds. One track was recorded live, and that has the most obvious theremin sound.
We are so happy with this album - we would like to get it out there more - show it to different labels, do the rounds of ambient forums and generally raise the profile of Memory Wire. We are thinking of doing a run of 50 digipack (card-type case) copies which we might use as review copies etc..

I made a little youtube with the title track, which is one of my favourite pieces of music I have ever recorded.
