Cat.#: LONTANO-S-CD56
Release date: 18/4/2025
Format: CD, Digital

Dominick and Laurel first crossed paths at the resonance Drone Bath in Todmorden, drawn together by a shared fascination with deep listening and textural sound. Their conversation flowed as naturally as the drones that filled the space, touching on resonance, memory, and the way sound lingers in unseen places.

From this meeting, a collaboration emerged. Laurel recorded a series of vocal improvisations—wordless, spectral, and unbound. Dominick wove these into a delicate web of tape loops and micro-sound processing, allowing the voice to dissolve and reassemble in shifting layers. Over time, he introduced additional textures—subtle harmonic movements, fractured overtones, and waves of tonal erosion—until the piece became something suspended between presence and absence.

The result is a work that unfolds slowly, inviting deep immersion. The physical release is a 70-minute meditation, while the digital version extends close to two hours, stretching time into something porous and fluid.
