Rachel Evans (Motion Sickness of Time Travel) Does the word "ambient" mean anything to you in 2012? It seems as though its usage becomes more and more scarce as the years go by. One might even call it out of fashion. Artists and journalists seem to be slightly squicked out by it. "Drone," a vaguer and less informative term, is more favored by the newer generation of artists and listeners. But despite these apparent trends against the A-word, the music itself is probably as big and [...]

Leyland (James) Kirby's An Empty Bliss Beyond this World is an extraordinary concept album about Alzheimer's dementia. #3 The Caretaker - An Empty Bliss Beyond this World Lovely painting no? Time as matter (or something). A couple of weeks ago, I posted a piece about a dementing man I worked with called Gearóid . In that piece I [...]

Resonant lyrical waxing from previously unheard-of boy from Brazil, Gimu (‘g’ as in g enre, not gold), an experimental ambient/drone musician based in Vila Velha, Brazil, who portrays himself modestly as ‘...only an old guy who's always making music.' Modesty becomes him, and the 'old' bit doesn’t count against you in this particular corner of the musical universe, at least not the last time I looked. He does seem to be ‘always making music,’ though, as a slew of releases surfacing on bandcamp through 2011-12 will testify. [...]

James Leyland Kirby, recording as The Caretaker , has recorded one of the strangest and most naggingly beautiful soundtracks in memory. Patience (After Sebald) is filmmaker Grant Gee's tribute to German writer W.G. Sebald, and Kirby's score samples old Franz Schubert records, extracts and exaggerates their natural static, and loops the brief sounds hauntingly, almost compulsively. Here the method is the comment: Kirby has remarked before on the social media age and our tireless efforts at converting everything we are into an electron stream, then uploading all of it to the web for posterity. So let's not [...]

A few more albums to shortlist as I head off to vacate. I'm not doing the whole SXSW thing this year, unless you mean the acronym's alternate long-form: Strangled By Sea World. - Patience (After Sebald) OST by The Caretaker. (Thanks to John Harrison of Cedar Lines for the tip. Watch for our Cedar Lines profile in early April.) - Perceiving Perspective , by Pleq and Lauki . Two Maxwell advocates record a quite acoustic-sounding EP. -Forthcoming releases by Black Swan , Vieo Abiungo [...]

Extra Patience (After Sebald) by The Caretaker A new, free mini-album from one of ambient music's most interesting producers right now, the Caretaker. It seems to be a collection of odds and ends from the project's latest collection of songs, Patience (After Sebald) , but still makes for an interesting listen. Patience was originally released as a soundtrack to the Grant Gee film of the same name, but the release has received some pretty warm reviews as a stand-alone piece. What's more interesting is the Caretaker is being specific about [...]

England's ghostly musician, The Caretaker , gives up a free limited time download of bonus tracks from the soundtrack of Grant Gee's film, "Patience (After Sebald)". A gorgeous set of eerie compostions comprised of lovely post-soundtrack lullabies. This takes me on a journey through space and time. Thank you 1827 , Franz Schubert , and Kirby for making me feel this way. Of grace and providence, The Quilter Standard of Sebald was so run down. Isolated lights again and a golden pheasant on a black ground. After the Earth [...]

The Caretaker has been on a tear recently. After releasing last year's mesmerizing album An Empty Bliss Beyond This World , he went on to soundtrack the Grant Gee film Patience with Patience (After Sebald) . Both albums have been in heavy play lately providing haunting landscapes lulling me to sleep in recent nights. Now he's giving away an album of outtakes from his latest on Extra Patience (After Sebald which can be downloaded over at Bandcamp. Get em. So [...]

Conocí el proyecto de Leyland James Kirby vía Bandcamp, y en cuanto leí que se inspiraba en las películas de Kubrick (específicamente en The Shining), supe que tenía que conseguir todo lo que este inglés hubiera hecho. Y luego me di cuenta que entre su nombre real, V/Vm y The Caretaker tenía muchísimo material y, aunque no dejé de ser fan, como que me desvié. Pero bueno, el punto es que el último álbum de Leyland es el soundtrack de un documental llamado Patience (After Sebald) , y está regalando el material [...]

Leyland Kirby acaba de poner a la venta su nuevo album de estudio bajo el nombre de The Caretaker y esto, es algo que probablemente ya conocen a la perfeccion ya que desde hace un par de semanas les habia estado poniendo algunos extractos de "Patience (After Sebald)" en el que ademas les comentaba que este no es unicamenet su nuevo material de estudio, sino que esto tambien forma parte del soundtrack oficial del mas reciente film de Grant Gee el cual lleva el mismo titulo. Ahora, Leyland ha puesto a traves de su bandcamp un pequeño album [...]
I've been feeling particularly bored by modern music as of late and the steady stream of garage rock-turned-70s-ass-rock-turne d-mid-90s-power-pop is starting grate on me. It's going to be one of those weeks where you turn to Sound on the Sound for catchy tunes and you stumble across The Daily Choice and instead you get sonically kicked [...]
![[Listen] The Caretaker: "As If One Were Sinking Into Sand"](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/4046117_lg.jpg)
"When The Dog Days Were Drawing To And End" fue el primer adelanto que les puse hace un par de semanas de este nuevo album de Leyland Kirby bajo el pseudonimo de The Caretaker y como les informaba, "Patience (After Salad)" no es unicamente su nuevo material como continuacion de su excelente pieza del año pasado de nombre "An Empty Bliss Beyond This World" sino que tambien, esta composicion es el soundtrack del nuevo film de Grant Gee el cual lleva el mismo nombre que este material "Patience (After Salad)". Si ustedes escucharon el debut de Leyland Kirby [...]
