Harp Mix Tape VII

This week we have another wash of harp sound - glisses, loops, reverb.

As always, to purchase or listen to the albums heard here in full, click on any of the links in the notes below. To hear this playlist on BNDCMPR where you can purchase the individual songs, head to Harp Mix Tape VII.

To start us off Amanda Feery from Dublin, Ireland gives us reverbed glisses, with the occasional, low, deep notes adding a bit of tension. The album is called errāta EP Or I guess I should say EP.

The very prolific Mary Lattimore teams up with Mac McCaughan ot give us experimental, processed harp with loops and effects and synths. I feel like I hear birds in there, somewhere, too. The album is a live recording called AVL.

Alex Bernat recorded harp in a tank. No that's not a typo.  They recorded their harp and their whistling at  "The Tank Center For Sonic Arts in Rangely, Colorado - a recording and performance studio built inside of a historic railroad-company water tank". All the sounds are natural, there is no added reverb! The album is Solos from the Tank. I found it not unlike Underground Overlays From the Cistern Chapel by Stuart Dempster.

The next track is listed under the label name Studio 4632, and the artist is Linnea. This is a contemplative, sort of melancholy, reverby ambient study. The album is called Contemplation to Shed Light.

Kronodigger makes ambient, techno, electronic harp loops, and beats, and this one definitely has birds. The EP is titled Rainbows || Silent Motions.

Lastly we have Dave Hoover (and Elijah Parker) playing fast massage music - it's got either a hand pan or rav vast, or both, and a melody maybe being played by a snyth as well as a harp. It's a nice wash of sound the blends everything together for a new-agey, relaxing listen.  The album is Indralaya Dome Sessions (vol. 1).
