Hi everyone, we're back after the long winter and we're presenting you our latest web-release.
This is a new project named "The Colourful Pictures". At some point, Snowbringer and me came to an idea that we need a new collaboration between not only two of us, but with participation of other fellow musicians. And the result of this collaboration is right here, it's a full-lenght album consisting of only one track.
We decided to dedicate the record to Genesis P-Orridge who has perished recently. That's why it's called "Forever E": P-Orridge called himself "E", he used "E" instead of "I", and his colleagues simply adopted this as another nickname of Genesis (check out Monte Cazazza's "Monte Adores E" or "Scars for E" written by John Balance and performed by Cultural Amnesia).
(I used "he" because at the time P-Orridge used "he" to identify "himself")
But when we were recording this stuff, personally I wasn't thinking of P-Orridge. I wanted to try something new in a new collaboration. I don't know whether we're going to continue but there are some chances that this project's becoming an ongoing one.
Now let's try to describe the record. It's basically experimental ambient with addition of live instruments, which brings a slight avant-garde touch. The base of the record goes from use of "heavy" synths played by Snowbringer and me, but it occasionally meets parts of electric piano, electric guitar and bass. The tracks aren't separated as it's obviously the flow which floats from the beginning to the end, changing its directions on the way.
The electric piano part was contributed by Предложный Падеж.
Electric guitar part was contributed by Yevgeniy Minaev.
Bass part was contributed by Yevgeniy Dvoynishnikov, a member of Лосины Маршала Потемкина band.
The album was recorded at Red Moral Studio by Vladislav Klikunov.
Hope you like the record. Download in WAV!
Let's remember Genesis.
Stay tuned,
sincerely yours,
John "Grey Lenses" Grey
