Various Metrics (NLA) II is the single release of the forthcoming album Since It Turned Out Something Else by Adrian Corker featuring the voice of composer/performer Josephine Stephenson and the violin of Aisha Orazbayeva recorded onto acetate.
This is the first long form solo artist release by Corker since 2013. Sounds collected and forgotten about to be then re found and used as seeds of new compositions. Neither acoustic composition nor electroacoustic but somewhere in between, the music was recorded in many different spaces from Japan to Berlin and France, often remotely, whilst finally put together in one room in London. Rooms and our current shifting relationship with them as well as using space as compositional material are some of the focuses of the work here, as well as how acoustic sound can be transformed through physical materials including the spaces themselves. The release will also be followed by reworks from TIBSLC (Sferic).
