Music of memory and forgetting made with lost and found sounds. Richard Scott and James Edmonds are two Englishman in Berlin excavating layers of music and memory from the city’s crumbling graffiti laden brickwork as the omnipresent spectre of regeneration threatens to paint over all history once and for all. Their complex, hands-on music goes against the city’s prevailing tide of minimalism and noise - admitting emotion, memory, nostalgia and melancholy into its fading, browning ambient textures. Composed in real time, this is music that attempts to stay in one place and can do so only by admitting constant change.
