Radial

by Benoît Pioulard

Radial cover art

Released as a fundraiser following the artist's wrist fracture, 'Radial' is a compilation of three long-form ambient pieces built from guitar and cassette tape processing. The compositions feature airy, nostalgic drones that create a sound of peaceful, distant reflection, including a notable interpretation of Aphex Twin's "Stone in Focus". The album’s context is intrinsically linked to its sound, with the breathy, layered textures and reworked demos evoking a sense of recuperation and forced retrospection.
