APL033 >> OFF THE SKY - CAUSTIC LIGHT
[29.08.2005 | A SPACE OF WARM AMBIENT GUITARS]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To gain insight into Off The Sky's (Jason Corder) current work we cast a ray
through "Caustic Light EP". A new release on autoplate after his "Studies of
Form in Transit" [APL014] and "The Transitions" [APL027] (under his old moniker
Color By Numbers). This EP grew up evolutionary to what it is now - a collection
of four tracks whose atmosphere is created by guitar particles and floating
ambient scapes.
When asked what the story behind this "caustic light" concept was, Jason
responded, "While the songs evolved, textures and subtleties were molded around
a pre-existing idea surrounding caustic light play. The constant random patterns
of light at the bottom of a pool or from light cutting through crystals and
dancing on a table in prismic fashion always caught my childhood imagination
leaving a strange, sentimentaly charged residue. The memories of these caustics
has been translated with guitar notes being chopped into granulated shards of
sound. The guitar always will, be an instrument that has an illuminus tone to it
- especially the higher notes and the picked harmonics like those in 'through
time stained windows'. Also the sign wave seems a perfectly synonymous paralell
to steady beams of lights...
So lately dreams have been a prevelent activity for me. An awareness point has
been reached in REM of being cognative enough to notice a low, constant dancing
of light surrounding objects. There is always a soft, elusive ring flooding my
peripheral dream window similar to an effect used to simulate memory floods in
an old film called 'Dark City'.
This effect in a recent lucid dream, birthed an idea for a poem. All of the
titles of each track of the EP are all sucessive lines from this short poem
which is titled 'requiem inconnu'. It is an ambiguous story from the last moment
memories of an old man as his soul escapes.
her soft circumference,
dripping lightly, diffuses...
like caustic light bending backwards
through time stained windows
The old man, an unknown, lonely hermit, remembers back, like in a dream, to a
watery memory of a prevalent past lover. In his time stained mind's eye, her
form bends and flips around like caustic light crawling on coral beneath an
abstract ocean. This is his last vision of love lost and love gained again at
last through the bridge of his eternal memory.
So each song title essentialy stands on its own but also the whole of all the
titles make up a pertinant paragraph of poetry that coincides with the core
concept for the album - a track title poem."
With this EP Jason creates a bridge to his upcoming release 'it is impossible
to say just what i mean' due out on Stilll records in Belgium this September
(www.stilll.org).
