Oxherding - Unfolded Along The River
Everything existing in an undisturbed state. Energy moving with silent and unseen power beneath the outward stratum. This process has endured longer than what makes sense to rationalize. With lives only reaching one hundred years, tens of thousands of years is an incomprehensible length. And in this duration, the ever present aural current drones on with the most sublime characteristics. A sonic heritage reaching back to the fabric of creation. Then, the slightest disturbance occurs, a graceful drop of rain, the most gentle breeze, a ray of sun emanating through crisp blue sky. "Unfolded Along The River" captures and shares this moment with us. The softest flurry above the flow, a brief euphoria of discernible beauty.
Oxherding has crossed paths with Lost in a Sea of Sound four times. Each composition is an extension of the last, all connecting in a spiritual surge of increasing vibrations. The first release described on LIASOS is titled "The Past Is Gone and The Future Is Not Yet Here". A title that embodies the entirety of the sounds created by Fitz Hartwig. "Unfolded Along The River" follows four years later with the slow and continuing evaporation of sonic humidity. Two side long tracks with the most delightful qualities. Oxherding tunes the day to day out, focusing on a natural moment that occurs in infinite amounts, this time not going unnoticed or unheard. Sounds that originate from ambient drone and transcend to a world held in the unknown future. We are fortunate to have this temporary moment to listen, but even more so since we can listen again.
"Unfolded Along The River" is one of three cassettes in the Distant Bloom winter batch. The St. Louis, Missouri label currently has all three cassettes available for purchase. Many of the past Oxherding cassettes and compositions on Distant Bloom have sold out in physical form. This tranquil release will trend on the same path.
