stephen williams This is the futuristic sound we were promised in the days Of Tomorrow's World. Menacing textured sonic booms, waves of synthetic communication from a distant Pulsar, glistening embers of white noise inexorably meeting its ultimate demise Favorite track: RRH Mynydd Tarw.

Paul L A lovely collection of sometimes eerie and sinister tracks, which definitely appeal to my love of '70s early electronica. The kind of music you listen to when climbing a mountainside on a cold, autumn day and there's nobody around for miles. Slightly chilling - and brilliant. Favorite track: Summit Aura.

about

FOR IMMEDIATE DISSEMINATION

— (STOP) —

It's been some 8 years since we last saw the spoils of Vincent Wildly, which is far too long in anyone's book. 2015's 'The Black Nun' remains a singular piece of Salopian creative endeavour; one part live avant garde performance, another part investigative ghost story, fronted by Victoria Clinton's uncompromising cover art.

It also remains our only release of his, despite our best intentions.

At least, until now.

Plenty Wenlock Records is delighted to announce the release of 'Mynydd Tarw', a collection of dense, tape distressed soundscapes inspired by solitary hikes across distant Welsh mountainsides, in search of long-classified RRH (Rural Radar Head) stations.

Through these tracks, Vincent paints a series of intimate sound portraits; the thrill one could feel when chancing upon a forsaken site ('Esker' and 'Upland Surge'), while '52 52 55 N 3 22 19 W' embodies the menace of locating something secret, obscured from civilian maps.

We hope it serves as a reintroduction, of sorts, to the work of Vincent Wildly, and a taste of what's yet to come. Each release serving as a window into Vincent's particular blend of the ritual, the personal and the mechanical.

An accompanying video for the track '52 52 55 N 3 19 22 W' has been produced by Plenty Wenlock's own Eric Loveland Heath, filmed at dusk, up a hill, tracking an unmanned installation, in the middle of nowhere.
