Paul Bailey: Obsessive Love (2002)
Obsessive Love (Music for Summerland EP, 2002) explores the juxtaposition of pop song forms and harmonies through post-minimalism. Summerland refers to a mythical-emotional place where we escape daily routine by making music; composing, rehearsing and performing. This music lies somewhere between art music (music meant to be contemplated) and pop music (music meant for mass consumption).’

Oliver Blank: Lumi Karhu (2009)
Oliver Blank: Lumi Karhu (2009)
‘Oliver Blank is a composer living in Helsinki, Finland. His first album, Karhu ja Tiikerini, features husky dogs, whispering, very small guitars, string quartets, mechanical pianos and the sound of Lapland on a cold Winter’s night. Karhu ja Tiikerini, tells the story of a bear and tiger. The title, translated from Finnish, means, “Bear and My Tiger.” The two animals meet in the wild and, despite their cultural differences, become close friends.
Lumi Karhu can be translated from Finnish literally as ‘Snow Bear’. The piece follows Bear’s journey through the seasons. From tumultuous weather hunting for food in the dark to long Summer days eating berries. The forest changes around Bear and he learns to survive on his own. The piece was originally recorded in Jyväskylä, 2009, and features violinist Maiju Lempinen.’
