LETHE "ALLELINE" CDr (AOW 94)

The first Lethe album , previously only available digitally, now issued properly.  The work here is one of patience.  A massive tone glacially expands, becoming ever more persistent and deep.  Staggering in its simplicity but utterly engulfing.  I have always been very proud of this album, of the slowly unfurling depth of it.  This may have been the closest I ever came to achieving what Radigue and Drumm seemed to summon up so effortlessly.  There may have been a certain naivety at work in my composition at the time, but the intent and purpose is obvious.  Huge sounds for isolated contemplation, a communion with the oneness.  Headphones are a must for this one-it needs to be around you.
Packaged in a DVD case in a limited edition of 10 hand-numbered copies.  $10 ppd. in the United States, $22 rest of world.
