Mollusk - Accretions [Fou.14] The Foundry/Hypnos

Malcolm Bly records as Mollusk. "Accretions" is his debut CD. the inspiration for much of the music comes from Malcolmıs study of ­ DUH! ­ mollusks and natural history.

It was by accident that this became a CD project. Malcolm was simply exploring the realms of on-line audio and low-resolution mp3ıs. Michael Bentley suggested the CD project and Malcolm remastered the tracks to CD quality and the fourth Hypnos/Foundry collaboration is here.

The music is very experiMENTAL. The sounds are all digital. Malcolm manipulated samples and field recordings to augment the music. the result is very cool and very soothing. This is a cool CD. visit www.mollusk.net for more.
