Liner notes
For six weeks in the winter of 2024 I took the last boats across the river with a pair of binaural microphones in my ears. The engine, the rail, the people talking quietly on the way home from work: everything on this EP started there.
Back in the flat I cut the recordings into loops and played over them until they turned into tracks. Engine Room is the hull of the Cacilhense, slowed down by half.

“Cacilhas turns a commuter ferry into a cathedral. Play it on headphones, late.”
