About this product
Simon Goff - Spark Like Living Mothers / To this end, the whole album has it's roots in an arrangement Goff did of the beautiful choral piece 'If ye love me' by Thomas Talis. A six track collection of immersive, textural and intuitive electronica, the album is testament to Goff's multifaceted practice. The album's lyrics were written with Sam Potter of Late of the Pier, whose work explores dreams and creates realities. Using an Artificial Intelligence algorithm that Potter has been working with for over 2 years to process and create material, the pair generated text that formed the poem 'Spark Like Living Mothers' (see below). The pulsating, mesmerizing first single arrives with a video by legendary visual artist John Sanborn, which uses a combination of lidar and photometric scanning to produce instant 3D models of two performers, Sarah Cecilia Bukowski and Paunika Jones. In doing so it adopts the Japanese concept of wabi-sabe, encouraging the viewer to appreciate that nothing is truly perfect or permanent, and to embrace reality to survive and thrive. 'Spark Like Living Mothers' is also accompanied by artwork from artist, illustrator and legendary underground tattooist Ruth Marten. Furnished by Simon with the music, a poem and a brief explanation of the project, the resulting image perfectly represents the playful, creative elements of the album. The is sponsored by the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg, Department for Culture and Media.

Behind the finest and most moving pieces of contemporary-classical music lie deeply personal and poignant stories, and Simon Goff's new album Vale is no exception. The British violinist and composer's dazzling exploration of the interface between violin and technology and between the poles of intimacy and grandeur, as rich and deep and wide as the landscape that lies it's heart, named after the Vale of York where Goff grew up. The album encapsulates not just a landscape but a place in time and an identity forged through youth and adulthood, all viewed from his current base in Berlin. A1. Vale A2. Wooden Islands A3.
