“Reappearance” | TRS – 42


Finally…a new mini disc release! TRS042 will be a 4 track release from Guy Gelem, entitled, “Reappearance”. This is a lovely blend of electronically treated cello music…and as Guy himself says…”As are most of my previous releases… this work isn’t a result of any proper plan…but after coming up with a few ideas I decided to work only with the cello this time, and to create music that is influenced from the classical world from all the periods. Music that sounds both raw and natural, and yet melodic. I’m always trying to tell a story that even I’m not familiar with, or to paint something that I’ve never seen before. I let the music I compose express my inner feelings, the feelings that even I haven’t confronted yet.”

“Reappearance” will only be available in a deluxe, limited edition version of 90 copies. Each hand stamped mini disc comes in a star punched, black felt covered outer envelope, which is wrapped in an undulating, hand worked, 26″ folded obi strip…with an included, stamped insert made from pages of vintage, hand notated sheet music. The entire package is tied up with strands of Mongolian horsehair and a hand made, rubber tie down button, made from a used bicycle tire tube.

Designed by Maria Chenut and Colin Herrick…

Available in mid May… and it will come with a digital download link…
