The Drowned Cities

Nottingham, UK band The Soundcarriers have announced their fifth album, Through Other Reflections, which will be out August 16 via the band’s own Phosphonic label. Their last album was 2022’s great Wilds. “It almost comes across like a story in some ways”, says the group’s Adam Cann of the album, “the music is quite sectional with elements of exotica and cinematic type layers, it’s a good balance of grooves, tunes and weirdness.” Cann adds, the songs “follow that folk-song tradition of wanting to escape to an imagined time, but here it’s more urban than pastoral.”

Playing With Water is a novel written by James Hamilton-Paterson. I was introduced to his writing by the Australian poet Peter Bakowski who gave me a copy of his book ‘Seven Tenths - The Sea And Its Thresholds’; a book that influenced my record Globe Notes and subsequent works immensely. Another of his books ‘Playing With Water: Passion And Solitude On A Philippine Island’ is about exactly what the title describes it as and provided me with the title.
