{"product_id":"a-thousand-strings","title":"A Thousand Strings","description":"\u003cp\u003eContinuing his fruitful relationship with Discrepant after the third volume of his ongoing Organic Music Tape Series on Sucata Tapes, Tiago Sousa returns with two long-form pieces for organ with . A self-explanatory title in itself, \u003ci\u003eA Thousand Strings\u003c\/i\u003e drifts fluidly into a celestial realm of cascading melodies and cycling patterns that never feel forced or strict throughout its two hypnotic tracks. Pulsating with life and ecstatic abandon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTaking cues from the tradition of American minimalists like Steve Reich and, particularly, Terry Riley, the Portuguese composer's work flows with a life of his own, that, while acknowledging those influences, transcends them into his own signature. On the A side, \u003ci\u003eA Thousand Strings\u003c\/i\u003e goes seamlessly from intertwining crepuscular harmonies to ascending keyboard runs in the manner of 'Persian Surgery Dervishes' finishing with a coda of rhythmic marimba-like pulses. On the flipside, 'The Things Passed' creates this maze-like tapestry of melodies that seem to drift apart only to converge back again into its internal process before setting on sustained tones infused with a sense of longing. For all things passed. For what is yet to come.\t\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Discrepant","offers":[{"title":"Black LP","offer_id":50478146519371,"sku":"2217453","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/CS1035682-01A-BIG_3a394042_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727480948","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/fr\/products\/a-thousand-strings","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
