about

Released on Aphelion Editions

This next instalment from Aphelion Editions comes via London-based artist Miguel Gomes (Be My Friend In Exile).

With 'Portraiture Of Your Ashes / Dancing Through The Rubble Of An Abandoned Cathedral', he delivers 14 exquisite, drifting, cinematic vignettes across 70 minutes of the time/space continuum.

Hewn from delicate layers of guitars, electronics and waves of hissing static, this carefully sequenced and vast collection rewards immersive listening. Close your eyes and allow your mental film reel to play as you journey into solitude with this as your soundtrack.

The album features Miguel's own vivid and intricate collages adorning the front and back covers of the physical release.
