The new self-titled release by Feeling Flying is from Andrew Thomas and Bevan Smith, a collaboration of two like-minded musicians, focused on improvisation, experimentation and minimal sound that allowed them to create a unique expression deep within the process and to explore dynamic and ever-evolving compositions. The end results are an organic and continuous musical dialogue of sonic, interpretive landscapes.

Feeling Flying:

The Feeling Flying collaboration started when Andrew sent midi files with sketches of ambient tracks to Bevan, many of which were skeletal and improvised on an electric piano. While others might build up and layer these minimal tracks, Bevan did the opposite. He slowed them down to glacial tempo and removed half the notes from Andrew’s original compositions. These midi tracks were run to an old synthesizer, it’s output was so noisy the artifact became an element of its own. Because the songs were so slow, Bevan could mix them entirely by the time the audio was recorded.

Bio:

Andrew Thomas has released music on Kompakt and !k7, is featured on many Pop Ambient compilations, and was curator of Air Texture I. He has also been nominated for Best Chill Out Artist in the Beatport Music Awards.

Bevan Smith has released albums on Carpark Records as Signer and Introverted Dancefloor. Signer track ‘Building Memories Without You’ was featured as one of Fact Magazine’s 25 best dub techno tracks of all time.

it takes a while, but the cover art finally starts to make sense: the entire album has been a sort of slow-motion takeoff. that feeling in your gut, where your stomach starts floating as if it’s weightless; that’s what anthéne does best. the last few tracks explode in turbulent walls of sound, with the titular track and light shade edging on the cinematic. as if by leaving the ground your memories are already fraying miso
