DOWNLOAD: The Caretaker - Bonus After Sebald tracks



The Caretaker has put up 9 bonus tracks which co-exist alongside his eerily wonderful Patience (After Sebald) album, for free download for a limited time.  Not sure when his going to close this down, so hurry over to his Bandcamp to get them.

"Extra tracks taken from the soundtrack of the Grant Gee film "Patience (After Sebald). The source material for 'Patience' was sourced from Franz Schubert's 1827 piece 'Winterreise' and subjected to his perplexing processes, smudging and rubbing isolated fragments into a dust-caked haze of plangent keys, strangely resolved loops and de-pitched vocals which recede from view as eerily as they appear."

VIDEO: The Caretaker - Bedded Deep In Long Term Memory



The stillness, diginity and elegant poise of the owl, aligned in decaying digital layered unity by Charles Griffin Gibson, with the deeply emotive crackle and otherwoldy hiss of The Caretaker's dusty 78 looped reminiscences of Bedded Deep In Long Term Memory. The track is taken from The Caretaker's phenomenal new album An Empty Bliss Beyond This World is out now on his own label History Always Favours The Winners. It's a record that is transportive, disorienting and transformative, making infinite visions stream from just a few bars of borrowed, found, lost musics.
