Composed during a whirlwind period of touring and sound engineering in 2019, ππππ¦ functions as both a tranquil refuge and as a heartfelt appreciation for the source instruments' timbres. Berlin-based Bridget Ferrill crystallizes her professional recording experience and artist residencies into a singular focus on Buchla modular, harp, zither, and viola da gamba. Rather than an exercise in technical mastery, Ferrill's careful arrangements invite us to linger with each instrument; in her words, fulfilling the longing to "listen a little longer, a little slower". Every contour of the instruments is lovingly traced, a warm invite for us to join her in the exuberance of exploring their inner life.

Damn this album hits hard, really goes to show how much of a serious illness alzheimerβs/dementia is. Stage 3 is especially amazing yet horrifying. jayjayboi
