about

After releasing ‘Nether | Aether’ in 2021 (under the moniker, Adam Casey & the Liminal Choir), Adam (formerly of The Boy Who Spoke Clouds/Trappist Afterland/Seascapes of the Interior) follows this up with a new project – photo(sphere).

Adam’s previous music has always engaged with the aesthetics present in ‘ambient music’, but, this is the first album in which Adam fully immerses into this musical tradition. ‘This album is indebted to Eno, for sure, but moves away from his conception of ambient music. I think of these musical pieces as tonal explorations, sonic poems, or, more explicitly, musical vignettes that fleetingly fly by you; I like to think they leave something behind in the listener that is perhaps more profound than the pieces of music themselves.’

Conceptually, the album explores the perception of the detritus of the past, positioning the barely perceptible movement left behind by various elemental forces into full focus, be it a flower that shakes after a bird has leapt off it, the silver dust that sprays across the deep ocean floor from the fluke of a whale, the impression of a body in a dune, the flickering residue within our eyes as we squint up at the sky.

The compositional foundation was largely performed on pipe organ, mellotron and piano, with field recordings, no input feedback and Juno 6 also finding their way into these tonal explorations amongst other sounds and instruments.
