about

Come, see real
flowers
of this painful world.
—Bashō (1644-1694)

"Unless We Sleep..." emerged from a number of recording sessions that took place between July 2019 and May 2020. It was a time of exploration and experimentation, of moving further away from the sound that had characterized our first albums. More stretched out, more meditative, but also more abrasive, these are the soundscapes that have defined the past year for us.

Consciousness

One of Horst's favourites. On this album, Windy & Carl reach a perfect melodious droneniness. Beautiful, relaxing, engaging. Orp

Lockdown Lullabies

A solo recording by Horst, made in 2021 when the Covid lockdown prevented us from playing together. Dark ambient drones, and fairly intense. Orp
