ANDREW PEKLER Sounds From Phantom Islands
エレクトロニカ全盛期に〈~SCAPE〉からリリースし、近年は盟友JAN JELINEKとのプロジェクトや彼のレーベルFAITICHEからもリリースしてきたANDREW PEKLERが2016年の「Tristes Tropiques」に続くアルバムをリリース。ポストコロニアル理論の文化人類学者Stefanie Kiwi Menrathとの共同作業によって産まれた音の地図上の「幻の島」のための音楽。心地よい周波数、ゆったりとイマジナリーなサウンドスケープ。この人の音はスローでも、ビートレスでもダンスな感覚があるなと。 (サイトウ)

Phantom islands are islands that appeared on historical maps but never actually existed. The status of these artefacts of European colonial expansion from the 15th to the 19th century oscillates between cartographic fact and maritime fiction. Sounds From Phantom Islands interprets and presents these imaginations as a quasi-ethnographic catalog of music and synthetic field recordings. The pieces on this album are based on recordings made for Phantom Islands - A Sonic Atlas, an online interactive map developed with cultural anthropologist Stefanie Kiwi Menrath.
