Green and Grey (expanded)

by Julia Kent

supported by

Rosa This album is just great.

oblio83 A masterpiece! Gorgeous listening. Julia’s music really resonates with your emotions. The vinyl sounds amazing, but I often listen to the digital version, looping “Guarding The Invitations” and “Missed” at night and just get lost in the mood. Favorite track: Guarding the Invitations.

about

New York-based cellist/composer Julia Kent’s celebrated second album, Green and Grey (2011), was released on vinyl for the very first time for Black Friday 2019, and is now available from Bandcamp. Across two discs, on green and grey coloured vinyl (naturally), this expanded edition features the preceding Last Day in July EP (2010) and two previously unreleased tracks. The gatefold sleeve features a new interpretation of the original artwork.

Originally released in 2011, Green and Grey explores the intersections between the human world and the natural world, the melding of the technological and the organic using Kent’s now trademark looped and layered cello, electronics, and field recordings. It references the patterns and repetitions that exist in nature often mirrored in human creations and also the complexity and fragility of our relationships, with one another and with the world that surrounds us. Without collaborators - other than the insects, weather, and wind sounds that create a sort of exoskeleton for the music - she has created an intensely personal landscape that references the way nature, however subverted and endangered by our modern world, still retains its power.
