Further Recordings are immodestly pleased to announce their fifth CD release, <em>Murmurations</em>, the first collaboration between Urthona and The Asterism.

Murmurations is less of a soundclash than the fallout from two worlds in collision: Urthona’s rural guitar-based heaviness slams into The Asterism’s towering analogue electronics, somewhere in space between Princetown and Fitzrovia.

The album features two instrumental pieces:

<em>River Severn Bore</em> (24.20) is an infinitely cascading surge of sound that makes you wonder what would have happened if an angry Neil Young had interned at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. RSB began life as a pulsating Asterism synthline that was guitared-up, trampled under foot and re-assembled by Urthona.

<em>Murmurations </em>(19.50) was inspired by the annual starling swarms that invade the Somerset levels each Winter. Initially a gently-flowing, aetheric Urthona guitar piece, it was quickly savaged by The Asterism’s synthesised sparrowhawks who left only a shower of blood and feathers in their wake.

<em>Murmurations</em> comes in a three panel sleeve featuring original artwork and inserts by Catharyne Ward.
