Basil Kirchin - Abstractions of the Industrial North






A man of disguise and variation,Basil Kirchin always seems to amaze me.Although this release reffers to his soundtrack experimentations,you can clearly see his compelling roots.

Somewhere between surrealism and genius,Kirchin insisted on creating music for fiction movies.Free from optical and musical boundaries,using tapes and field recordings managed to create his own system.A system full of eastern sounds,psychedelic touches,jazz patterns and contemporary orchestration.

Well,this should be more of a movie critic since Kirchin's vision was to give up his jazz restrictions and create more fluid acts but i decided not to give up spoilers.
