Notes

The first act of any musician is to break the silence, rending the quiet by pouring sound into the waiting space as gently as an unfolding rose or as savagely as a lightning strike.
I was intrigued by this sense of breaking, of the Fracture where the edge of the sound wave cuts the silence.
This album came out of a wish to hear sound Severed and Shattered.
What would a sound sound like if it's frequencies were peeled apart, it's edges Blurred, Curdled, Hacked - merging into and out of each other ?
In 'Fractured', many of the original sounds are unrecognisable. On the album every sound is acoustic in origin, apart from some in the first track and in the last sounds of the album.

Sources include: bird wing, water, tin foil, gongs, cardboard, bells, voice, glass, bone whistle and flute.
Recorded in StarWeb studio between 2008 and 2013 with Roland VS2480, Korg D16, Korg MR1, TC M3000, Sony and Tascam minidisc recorders, Sennheiser and AKG microphones, Sonar 5.

Dedicated as ever to my wife and for her patience (Seren Ffordd, 2014)
