Post Description

Het album viel me op, en daarna niet tegen, omdat een paar titels gaan over plaatsen waar ik nogal veel tijd heb doorgebracht. Loch Linnhe en Smirisary in het bijzonder.

Quee MacArthur creates music for dance and film. He has been playing bass and writing tunes with Shooglenifty since 2002.

A Telluric current is generated by the magnetic field of the earth and can be measured by sticking two electrodes into the ground.

Telluric Translations suggests a way of interpreting the landscape into the language of music.

The album crosses continents and genres exploring the landscape with sound.

Quee MacArthur invited fellow musicians Luke Plumb, Charlie Grey and Joseph Peach to make music together through remote collaboration throughout 2021. 
After exploring the landscape around their locations in Tasmania, Fife, Glasgow and Lismore, the musicians met online to share their ideas and discuss possible arrangements.  

The four musicians further developed the tracks online, with Quee on bouzouki and bass, Charlie on Hardanger D'Amore and fiddle, Joseph on piano, accordion and harmonium and Luke on mandolin and guitar.  This year, Quee, Charlie and Joseph met with producer, Mattie Foulds to record the tracks in Castlesound Studio. Mattie added drums and, in Tasmania, Luke laid down his guitar and mandolin parts for the final Master.

The resulting album has a unique character, reflecting the musicians' collaborative approach and their responses to the natural world.
