Ka-Spel,Edward / Stapleton,Steven / Potter,Colin - The Man Who Floated Away / The Closer You Are To The Center [New Vinyl]

Title: The Man Who Floated Away / The Closer You Are To The Center

Format: Vinyl

UPC: 3770001097039

Condition: New

Release Date: 2018

Record Label: Bisou Records

First ever collaboration between Edward Ka-Spel (from The Legendary Pink Dots and Tear Garden) and Steven Stapleton (from Nurse With Wound). It's been years they both wanted to work together and Bisou Records made that happen when they offered them a side on this split LP. The other side is the first musical meeting of Colin "the master of drone" Potter and French sax player Quentin Rollet (The Red Krayola, Mendelson, Nurse With Wound, Prohibition, David Grubbs, Thierry Müller, Ilitch). That first take was then re-worked in the studio with piano overdubs by Isabelle Magnon. Two long tracks which make you travel, far.
