David Sylvian & Stephan Mathieu-Wandermude (CRYSTAL CLEAR VINYL)
2LP first time on vinyl, wandermüde is exquisitely planned but executed in real time, drawn from old pains but breathing with new life. he title of the album – “tired of wandering” – implies a fatigue, a resignation, and an end; but the music itself crackles with suspense and anticipation, marking a moment of reflection before a journey begins. guitarist and electronics artist christian fennesz contributes to 'deceleration'. “‘fire in the forest,’ just as its sister ‘transit’ on fennesz’ venice album are to me perfect models for what a 21st century song can be,” says mathieu. “since he had only a couple of days to work on this, he came up with this rough and very beautiful recording of his guitar playing in the last moment. it was love at first sight for me.”
