about

Minimally played instruments and field recordings, processed into microsound and noise. Instruments include keyboard, glockenspiel, music box, dulcitone, piano, voice, effect pedals with contact mics. A little obscured guitar.

Field recordings of ice, wind, fire, footsteps and bells captured whilst walking in the Alps during autumn 2021. Some random sounds rediscovered on my dictaphone tape recordings from Nepal 2008.

Label release notes :

Some might know Andy Cartwright as guitar-experimentalist Seabuckthorn (IIKKI, Eilean Rec., LostTribe Sound etc). On ‘Form Less Ness’ Andy steps away from the guitar as the primary focus, but maintains his experimental and abstract approach, continuing the electroacoustic style presented on albums released on labels like Fluid Audio Label.

‘Form Less Ness’ consists of 13 abstract pieces of microsound, ambiances & field recordings processed in different ways, and sometimes beyond recognition from the original sound source. The collection of tracks has an airy and watery quality to them, almost taking shape of sound-installments, balancing on the verge between ambient music and soundart.
