The wind is getting up. X lingers next to a snapped hawthorn bush, resting it’s gaze upon hoax static teetering on the entry to the lost junction. It scans the traffic below. ‘On a serious point, I don’t know what […]

I haven’t had time to update this blog with info, but the track Dreamwalker was played as part of The Dark Outside for Aerial Festival online. https://aerialfestival.com/ I am most likely to put the project back into retirement, unless there […]
