Talvihorros

"Some Ambulance' should be the first port of call for those with even a passing interest in where electro-acoustic and ambient music is heading in 2009/10, while I can imagine the uninitiated finding lots to love too. It is not an exaggeration to say this is one of my favourite records this year." Michael Henaghan, [sic] Magazine - For fans of BARN OWL, TIM HECKER and dense dark sound collages in general.

Talvihorros: Music in Four Movements [Vinyl LP]

What started out as a personal challenge to make an album in 7 days grew into something else entirely. Over a year in the making, and expanding his trademark guitar sound with drums, strings, bells, organs and synthesisers, 'And It Was So' features contributions from fellow label mates Field Rotation (violin) and Petrels (cello) along with tour partner Jordan Chatwin (drums/percussion) and long time collaborator Anais Lalange (viola). Merging the textural noise of Tim Hecker with psychedelic, guitar sound-sculpters such as Barn Owl and Sun Araw. Cd: nice digipak packaging Vinyl: thick sleeves + thick printed inner sleeves; 180g vinyl; 2 different vinyl colors; free download code Listening: www.denovali.com/talvihorros

Let Us Be Thankful We Have Commerce' was the inaugral, cassette-only release on London-based publishing house My Dance The Skull. It was composed as a response to the worrying grasp of consumerism over much of western society. Inspired by the first few Talvihorros live improvisational shows a small, primitave set-up consisting of guitar, mixer, casio keyboard, effects and percussion were used to create two long, vibrant and constantly shifting pieces. It now sees the light of day again as a limited 10'' rerelease via denovali records Vinyl: thick sleeves; 2 different vinyl colors; free download code Listening: www.denovali.com/talvihorros

Eaten Alive is the fifth studio album as Talvihorros for the experimental British composer Ben Chatwin. Marking a move away from Chatwin's signature guitar sound into a wide-ranging electronic sound palette, featuring his most direct and uncompromising work to date. Eaten Alive is an album that focuses on the darker recesses of life, where bold melodic ideas fight with harsh noise and glacial ambience to create something organic, evolving and physically arresting.
