Waves + Peaks by Circle bros
Here it is: the Circle Bros 'peaks + waves' 10" on Vrystaete.
two sidelongtracks (clever titles: 'peaks' and 'waves'), and it's the very first time i'm doing this.
Side A is a solo guitar track: something with minimal structure, and very slowly evolving. Definately more sound than songstructured. Kind of in the same mood as my split lp with matt christensen, i'd say?
the B-side, waves, is the 'final' version of a track that i started working on around 2015, and evolved from a one minute short sketch into this long piece, based on organ, xylophone and vocals. It's one of the songs that i feel most comfortably with performing live, and has definately gotten this shape after a series of shows i did around
so, Vrystaete (an enfant-terrible sublabel) released it as a beautiful 10", pressed in an edition of 165 copies, in screenprinted sleeves: they come in four different kinds: green, blue, orange and yellow-ish. Please head to https://www.enfant-terrible.nl/releases/circle-bros-waves-peaks/ to get hold of a copy.
as usual: hope you'll enjoy this one!

Circle Bros is the longrunning onemanproject of Wim Lecluyse (founder of Morc Records). What started out as a way to experiment with sounds, evolved throughout the years into a more song-oriented outfit. The roots are to be found in the world of drone, lo-fi and improvisation. A sort of singer-songimprovisation for those that prefer soundexperiments over traditional verse/chorus-songs.
