Drones particulièrement soignés et subtils...
Another Australian alchemical meddler, tinkering with devices on the blink, Walls was dissed in The Wire on his wicked Cassia Fistula debut (Idea) a few years back, but the monstrous yet exacting heaving monoliths crafted within caught the ear of heavies like New Blockaders, Mirror, David Jackman, Daisuke Suzuki, and other industrial-strength masters, and he’s now in the middle of collaborations with or remixes of all of the above. The first one to be emitted is this one with England’s bucolic dronescape artist, Andrew Chalk. Clearing is hard to pin down, as it seems to evaporate upon coming out of the speakers, so subtle are its sounds. Walls’ machines buzz like insects over the backdrop of Chalk’s luminous hums, distilling the very air of the room. Like its title suggests, it creates a clearing in space much like you would find out in the rolling hills of England, or perhaps somewhere in the Outback. Chalk’s LP (also on Three Poplars), Fall in the Wake of A Flawless Landscape was also breathtaking.
