M. Sage: “Music for Interior Shadows”.
November 4, 2011, 0 comments
I had lost track of Matt Sage’s fortune since he’d abandoned his M. Pyres project sometime earlier this year, but thanks to the news spread last night by our beloved pal Dave Sutton we’ve not only been reminded of his very existence but we’ve also thankfully been given a heads-up to Sage’s latest musical endeavor, Music for Interior Shadows, and oh it’s a gorgeous, deeply contemplating effort, something we’d never have expected. Dave made the right call by likening this work to Leyland Kirby’s latest offering as The Caretaker, as these ten mostly shorter collages, derived from “a stack of old records with the idea of finding minimal chunks of sound and turning them into absent compositions”, are very much in the same vein as Kirby’s approach to long-lost musical memories. There’s really not that much else to say (or it has already been said), so really just sit down in that old armchair of yours, pour in a glass of good whisky and take a few minutes to ponder over your life, what lies behind and what’s still to come. Have a good weekend.
