about

The latest release by the Somerset sound sorcerers is a gothic affair of fantastical worlds and fractured landscapes. Gleanings from the Somerset Wastelands with strong riffs and atmospheric noise

Swine are a Somerset based group of sound makers and improvisers creating debris strewn wetlands of sound, forests of steel and iron and conjuring sonic deliriums.

These geologies of noise are formed from a wide variety of sources including Michael Fairfax’s sound sculptures, electronica from dystopian drum and bass producer Jon Cooke and Tim Hill’s layers of treated saxes. Michael’s instruments are hewn from the trees around his home, a family of beautiful stringed instruments, both elemental and evocative.
