Lie on the Ground and Breathe
Cook an Egg 2007
01. Lie on the Ground and Breathe [20:50]
Yet another slab of magic from Gayle Brogan. After her acclaimed releases on Foxglove, PseudoArcana and Students of Decay, Gayle delivers one 20-minute track which begins with a few scattered improvisations on the dulcimer before shifting into one of the most blissed-out ambient-acoustic reveries to date, aided by lots of different instruments (accordion, guitar, bass, zither, etc.). "I can hear the trees", repeats Brogan like a mantra in the second half of the piece, not afraid to try minimalist ways, invoking silences full of tension, adding to her reverberated voice some close and choked sounds of chains. All this composes a piece sometimes really close to Charalambides in its mood and minimalism, but in a much less improvisational and confrontational way. Focused, gentle... Just tip of the top.
