Hotham Sound Recordings:

"If CORBEN's 2021 album 'Whose Echoes Live In Memory' was a dimly lit journey through twilight ruins, this new full-length from the reclusive Canadian artist feels more like slipping languidly into a bay of bright blue water; all sun dappled coral, drifting currents Recorded in the summer and fall of 2021 in various home studios in British Columbia and New York, the album's eleven tracks have a fleeting, ephemeral air entirely in keeping with their creator's restless movements. ' and 'For The Captain' set the tone, with light percussion darting across the surface of playful synth sequences, shimmering string machines and vocoded melodies. 'The Sea Hazy' is a Panabrite-like journey through a tropical world of sheltered estuaries and swaying palms, while 'Rusty Tongue' rides a Giorgio Moroder bassline out past the breakers and into the sunset. There is a kind of effortless grace to all this, the mark of an artist working calml y and assuredly at the height of their powers. On 'Ain't Easy' and album highlight 'Stolen Moments' the synths are stripped away, leaving only the delicate fragility of the human voice, like a lone swimmer on the horizon."

As covid raged through 2020-21 and opportunities for live performance became increasingly scarce, the group steadfastly continued to meet weekly for its extended studio improv sessions, all of which were captured on tape. Parameters were simple; as soon as a key was chosen and the record button pressed, there was no turning back. Improvisations would often last late into the night, sometimes splintering into multiple variations on a theme, the three ensemble members responding to one another’s musical cues with the practiced ease that can only come from years of close collaboration.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cem\u003e'Acedia Phase' is a snapshot of those sessions; a vital document of the V Vecker Ensemble at the peak of its powers, and a beautifully heavy slab of ambient music.

As covid raged through 2020-21 and opportunities for live performance became increasingly scarce, the group steadfastly continued to meet weekly for its extended studio improv sessions, all of which were captured on tape. Parameters were simple; as soon as a key was chosen and the record button pressed, there was no turning back.

From there we ascend to the aptly named 'Sky Eye', a rolling mixture of acoustic beats and analog string machines that gives us our first bird’s eye view of the album’s landscape. 'A Long Road' pushes the acoustic instrumentation further, with shimmering tambourine marking time for a collection of hand drums and shakers, while 'Ages' summons up an occult-like dream of glacial arpeggios and whispering synths. 'Slow Moves' and 'Tree Motion' float effortlessly along on beds of lazy congas and woodblocks before finally giving way to the title track - a heady juggernaut of distorted synths and trundling rhythms that propels us through the album’s second half like a locomotive through\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\" class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e darkening hills. Drawing the record to a close, the gently repeating keyboard phrase of 'Mist' blooms unexpectedly into a rainbow of human voices before evaporating into the oceanic swells of 'Hi Traveller'.
