So lovely to make a film for this beautiful song ‘Weight Of The World’

A real joy to film the ever changing landscape and watch the incredible colours
of autumn leaves falling on the pond.

PORTALS OF LIGHT
From the album ‘Medicine Journey’
I visited my friend Jude over the summer and told her I was wondering how harmonium would sound with my flutes. Beautiful synchronicity as it just so happened that she bought a harmonium in India many years ago. She hadn’t played it for years and she was very happy to lend it to me. So I was very excited to bring this beautiful instrument home and have a play and found it blended beautifully with the flutes. My father passed 5 years ago around the time I borrowed the harmonium and wrote this piece of music. This tune celebrates his life and his passing onto a new realm and to bring new moon intentions for this time.

It was a real joy to make this film for Andre. Perfect timing too as the following weekend I managed to capture reflections of the Snow Moon in the lake not far from my home. Merged with textures in the landscape of waterfall, river and pond resulting in a dreamscape of light reflections.

Bristol's Snails return in exuberant form on their second full-length album, Hard-wired. Over 10 songs that unfold with an origami-like precision and attention to detail, the west country 6-piece expand their lush, outsider-pop template into new sonic and emotional territory, alchemising existential doubt into condensed elegies of often breathtaking beauty.

We paused: the winds were in the beech:
We heard them sweep the winter land;
And in a circle hand-in-hand
Sat silent, looking each at each.
From 'In Memorium' by Alfred Lord Tennyson

This afternoon was the colour of water falling through sunlight;
The trees glittered with the tumbling of leaves;
The sidewalks shone like alleys of dropped maple leaves,
And the houses ran along them laughing out of square, open windows.From ‘September 1918’ by Amy Lowell
