“Coelacanth is the name of a mysterious fish, a 400 million old “living fossil” which mostly congregates in submarine caves. A rather appropriate term for the exploratory, soundart collaboration between Loren Chasse & Jim Haynes.
Concerned with the terrain of transient, ever morphing drones, Coelacanth reflects a deep, natural organic beauty through textural audio-processes acting as metaphors for various abrasion phenomena.
On “Mud Wall” we can hear and perceive an ancient streaming grooving a cluster of thin chalk lines on a weathered cliff, traces of an improbable lost language the voice of a giant eroded stone eclipsed murmurs in amber cells manifold mineral alchemies mirrored in all the tiny fragments…
This is the hum of a sea within. A primordial flux spreading through all our veins. A resonating matrix of intimate and revealing proportion…
“Mud Wall” absorbs you into its own breath…”
