about

The series of ‘samplers’ compiled in the 90s and 00s were carefully curated and composed as narratives - although this aspect doesn't necessarily come across when staring at the track listings on their own, you realise immediately on listening how this unfolds. Every stage of the releases, from track selection, order, gap lengths and mastering to design, photographic and typography on the original CDs (now sold out) reflect this approach and remain a hallmark of Touch’s endeavours.

Your Flesh (US):

For those unfamiliar, the London based Touch label may be the finest progressive music label in the world. Their releases range from ethereal pop to abstract electronica, from field recordings to ambient drum ‘n’ bass. Each release is designed by inhouse photographer and artist jon Wozencroft, and often the packages are in oversized cardboard – an utterly unique and compelling combination of music and art. Touch 00 is their 4th combination and running just shy of 80 minutes, contains all previously unreleased tracks. Stand out pieces include Thomas Brinkmann’s “Olga 1″, a spooky, beat-based breathing atmosphere, Chris Watson’s field recordings in Ethiopia of young boys chanting while herding goats, Scala’s |Breaking Point”, which begins in rather benign symphonic grandeur only to collapse in a vortex of crunching rhythm and voice, the brooding heavy ambience of Hazard’s “Flood Gate”, and the list goes on. The recordings are uniformly excellent, and headphones take it all to another level. I’ve heard a good deal of these artists CDs, and I’ve yet to be let down. Exceptional. [Wade Iverson]
