Aidan Baker - The Taste Of Summer On Your Skin



Label: taâlem
Released: 2005
Style: Ambient

"Aidan's approach of instruments is that of an emotional paintbrush, breathing the air all around, soaking into its scents, the subtle tonal vibrations & colours to reach a sort of pure unreducible moment of communion...
Here, between layers of filamentous clouds,
sleeps a flowing light,
drawing delicate patterns & lasting traces...
Resonances come loose
in a slow imperturbable graceful carousel,
a vertigo of lost feelings...
As an handful of sand running out into the breeze,
the motion is melancholic,
the mood warm & contemplative...
Hear your skin oozing with deep summer tales..." (Chalkdc/Mystery Sea)

Tracklisting:

1 Part 1
2 Part 2

top draw!!

I am still looking for some of his stuff and [mostly]out-of-print releases. I'm still going through all the record labels finding out which ones are still in stock, but it's taking a while. Do you know anything about these ones?

This following list is fairly definitive, as far as his discography goes:

songs of flowers & skin
gathering blue
skein of veins
dog fox gone to ground
periodic
traumerei
the taste of summer on your skin
at the base of the mind is coiled a serpent
butterfly bones
an intricate course of deception
ice against my skin
antithesis
cicatrice
loop studies one
eye of day
Repercussion
Rural
Wound Culture
Cicatrice
Corpus Callosum
Loop Studies Remixed
Terza Rima
Antithesis
Scouring Thin Bones
At Home With...
Traumerei
Undercurrents
Convs. w/ Myself
Nagual
Ostinato 11

...I know, there's loads of releases out there

where to start?
