Grains of Space: - Thomas William Hill [VINYL]

'Grains of Space' started life as a series of minimal loops, recorded using a viola da gamba - a stringed instrument and a loop pedal. Using the negative space within each loop as the primary drive for composing, Thomas began a process of 'joining the dots', allowing the silence to dictate the next layer, informing the length, pitch and timbre of notes. Between the overlap and juxtaposition of multiple layers, Thomas began to see melodies and rhythms emerging from relatively erratic elements.
