about

Almost seven years in gestation, Verdant Compost is finally ready to enter the public consciousness on Earth Day, 2017. A mammoth undertaking larger than any previous remix projects I've attempted before, Verdant Compost collects six discs of reconstituted Verdant Acre source sound, produced by a long and talented list of craftsmen from all over the world.

The first four discs are sequenced sets of mixes, and the final two are themselves full-length album affairs by Zwei Kreise and Orson Throb, respectively. From deep and dubbed out techno to thick, textured drones, and everywhere in between, Verdant Compost casts a wide range of colors, temperatures and atmospheres, all built using source recordings from the same damaged vinyl sides and drum machines I used to create the original six volumes of the Verdant Acre series. I owe a huge debt of gratitude to the many talented musicians who took part, in order of appearance:

The box set comes with six special glossy 4x6" photographic prints, mutated and reconfigured from the original Verdant Acre photography, housed comfortably with the six discs inside a VHS-tape sized black plastic box that matches the recent Verdant Acre reinstatement and the ambient companion Verdant Night.

A humble and grateful thanks to all of the amazing producers who took part in this gigantic project - without you, we may have never known these half-familiar sound fields.
