Spire Live - Fundamentalis
Autofact / Touch # FACT 12 / Tone 28 [Double LP Vinyl Only]

Autofact FACT 12/Touch Tone 28
Double LP Vinyl only
Art Direction & Design by Jon Wozencroft

Spire Live - Fundamentalis is a collection of live tracks recorded at various
Spire events held throughout 2005 and 2006. Released in association with US
label, Autofact, Touch presents a selection of tracks performed by the main
performers of Spire: Fennesz | Philip Jeck | BJNilsen | Charles Matthews |
Marcus Davidson. Improvised pieces from Fennesz, BJNilsen and Philip Jeck
contrast with a performance by Charles Matthews of a scored composition by
Italian composer Giacinto Scelsi, 'In Nomine Lucis', and Marcus Davidson's
self-penned 'Standing Wave', which ends side two with a locked groove. Cut
to preserve and enhance the bottom end frequencies, Fundamentalis is not
merely a document; the tension between and within the individual pieces is
palpable. Fennesz's set "...evokes the rolling centuries in all their pain and
beauty, leaving us at once becalmed and energised, but never oppressed
under the weight of time." Electronics breathe new life not only into the
organ, but also into the setting. But successor does not mean replacement.
Ultimately, it's the majestic sound of the organ, so steeped in centuries of
tradition, that one remembers above all else.

Spire is one of the most innovative projects around, drawing on the full canon
of organ works, from the very first annotation in the Robertsbridge Codex
from the 14th Century, to max msp patches and software sampling... With
two CD releases and 9 performances in cathedrals and churches throughout
Europe, Spire remains a potent live force in harnessing the sounds of the
ages.

Boomkat (UK):

Compiling various performances from Spire events spread between 2005 and
2006, this magnificent double LP contains pieces by all the big names to grace
the Touch label: Fennesz, Philip Jeck, BJ Nilsen, and Spire organists Charles
Matthews and Marcus Davidson. Of all these contributions, Philip Jeck's is
probably the most immediately arresting. It's a truly odd experience listening
to his incredibly tactile, crackly old vinyl manipulations on a vinyl format, but
don't worry, that's not the pressing erupting into a scratchy mess, that's just
how Philip Jeck rolls. Perhaps predictably, Fennesz is the other real
showstopper on the selection, launching a simply immense sound from his
laptop. It's all quite overwhelmingly grand at times, but never exhausting.
Excellent.
