about

Here's another collection of tracks taken straight from cassette tape, made some time around 1997 / 98. I should really have put them out at the time, probably, but lacked the confidence to do so, I suppose.
Still, they represent a time in my life that I remember fondly, back when I was young, smart, and full of art.

These 5 pieces were all recorded in the same fashion over the course of about a year - all parts brought in and out live, straight to tape - with the same fairly rudimentary set up: Atari ST running Cubase, E-MU Vintage Keys, Roland D-50, Roland MS-1 Sampler, Boss Dr.Rhythm, Zoom 1210 FX unit, all going thru a Soundcraft Spirit Folio F1 mixing desk.

At one point I ran a stereo mic into the desk while jamming out the first track "Dawn Til Dusk" so the bird song / passing sirens you hear are all exactly as they happened when I put that to tape. Given the live jam nature of these tracks they do tend to go on a bit.. I've never been one for brevity, clearly.

I could of course go into great detail about every track, and in fact I still recall with great clarity exactly how I felt at every moment making these pieces. They all mean a great deal to me as they are in a sense a form of time tunnel for me to escape back to a point in time where all things lay ahead in the future.

Incidentally, the album title is a nod to a very memorable trip my family and I had (along with my future wife, who took the cover photograph somewhere in the Rockies) out to visit friends in BC, Canada in the summer of '98 - just after all this music was made.

Anyway, just thought I'd share so that they're finally out there. I hope they do something for you too.

Aw the best to your past, present and future selves - GLS / OL x

Other Lands Edinburgh, UK

Other Lands has always made music and always will. Not concerned too much with genre, more mood & going beyond the self. Trying to make it universal, as much for those who came before as for those yet to appear.
Hope that helps.
