Some info
Light Folds by The Seaman and The Tattered Sail is a collaboration between Craig Tattersall (The Boats, The Remote Viewer, The Humble Bee, Cotton goods, Theodore and Hamblin, The Famous Boyfriend, etc.etc. and artist/designer) and Bill Seaman (SEA, Attsea, Otic.Info.Set, sp.op.cit, Spilly and the Drops, etc. and media artist exploring linear and interactive works). The work took place via the internet, sending differing files back and forth using Drop Box, wetransfer.com, and vast quantities of email. After about 2 years Tattersall and Seaman met face to face!
It started with a simple back and forth set of responses to a few audio files, building up loops and tracks. Over time it built up to over seven hours of music. We initially made a double CD of works but we kept abstracting and remixing and colliding things. Tattersall brought his distinct form of “dusting” which explored unique forms of noise, tape ambience, tape degradation, etc. Seaman often explored abstraction using Ableton Live, especially in terms of time / pitch manipulation, and exploring the combination of a multitude of Ableton plug-ins. Huge amounts of data were sent back and forth! Occasionally we went a bit mad with naming and keeping track of things… Usually a number of mixes for each initial work emerged out of the process. Sometimes the abstractions went quite far away from the original tracks. The double album on Vinyl came late in the game where a series of shorter versions and new abstractions were defined.

 

Deluxe 300 run limited edition set / 4 panel heavy card stock gatefold covers / 2 x clear vinyl / 2 x printed inner sleeves / 2 x double sided 12″ prints / 6 panel (2 x CD 1 x Audio DVD – There are 12 designs of the covers so there are only actually 25 of each in existence!) / 4 x limited edition A6 prints that rest inside hand typed/numbered photographic glassine bags / A2 double sided non coated poster / Scent / Printed download code / All housed/wrapped/sealed in black bags that are used for underexposed photographic storage.

I thought about posting this when it came out, but it sold out in a couple days and there doesn't seem to be too much interest on WATMM for boutique ambient/modern classical releases. That being said, I had been looking forward to this for awhile and managed to grab the ltd CD/DVD version, since I didn't want the deluxe package (was around 60 bucks too). Really enjoyed it overall, though the tracks with vocals were grating. Was surprised to find out that several tracks were just different versions of each other.
