DIALECT
Atlas of Green
Boomkat Product Review:
Merseyside cellist/composer Dialect’s 2nd LP with RVNG Intl. brims over with bucolic promise and anachronistic nuance derived from the same Wirral stomping grounds of ancient landscapes that prompted great work from Forest Swords and Annie Hogan.
Marking nearly a decade since he registered the ohrwurms of debut LP ‘Gowanus Drift’, as inspired by his time spent in Brooklyn, Andrew PM Hunt’s Dialect has incrementally refined his blend of chamber music, livewire improv and textured sound design whilst never losing sight of a direct pathos and broad, cinematic appeal that beautifully came to fruition with his RVNG debut, ‘under~between’ in 2021. On its follow-up he takes a conceptual, allegorical approach revolving the concrète landscape and the infidelity of memory thru the story of musician located in the future, who navigates the present and past via the signposts of history strewn across the Wirral, from its stone age landmarks and rock carvings to The Bidston Observatory’s place out of time.
Folding in extra-musical inspiration from Ursula K. Le Guin and Gene Wolfe’s fantasy literature, plus the work of Italian philosopher Federico Camapagna, Dialect carefully parses a spellbinding thread of logic from that complicated matrix of inspirations. Like fellow Scouser/Wool (delete depending on your postcode), Annie Hogan, Dialect took to the domes of Bidston Observatory, perched on a sandstone outcrop once visited by Vikings, to tie those strands together. Using tape loops, broken electronics, acoustic instruments and a richness of imagination he regales the story with a lyrical instrumentalism which has long been his calling card.
The story inherently involves themes of hopelessness at humanity’s inability to tackle the climate crisis, but worn lightly in the effervescent transience of his arrangements. Striking up with the medieval air of ‘New Sun’, he vacillates between melancholic and anthemic themes and motifs with a signature breeziness, variously recalling the melodic clarity of “Blue” Gene Tyranny via Ernest Hood’s evocations of small-town life in ‘Recreation Story’, and merry folk jig ‘Born Through’, whilst tempering the mood with a playfully absurd quality in ‘Late Fragment’, and edging on the way Christos Chondropoulos reframes Athenian Primitivism in his ‘Archaic Quarter Form’ or the enchanting atmosphere to ‘Age & Rain’.
Really lovely stuff.
