Seems Micromelancolié’s External Sources will be the final release from Warsaw label Wounded Knife. A fitting last artifact. Tape opener “To Protect The Hands From Fire” beats a slow-winding path through loop and ambience elements- whispers/feedback, piano/birdsong, pulsing beat/metallic scrape. A journey that is never crowded or rushed, with distinct movements linked by overlooplap or fades to approach or retreat from near silence. Micromelancolié’s audible gold dust living here between beginning and end, navigating presence and absence as the blade is sheathed. Thanks, Wounded Knife!
