{"product_id":"aphorisms-3","title":"Aphorisms","description":"\u003cp\u003eGraham Lambkin (of Shadow Ring fame) returns with a long awaited epic double LP, \u003ci\u003eAphorisms\u003c\/i\u003e, his first major solo outing since \u003ci\u003eCommunity\u003c\/i\u003e (Kye, 2016). Recorded mostly during the early winter months of 2022, in post-pandemic New York and post-Brexit London, \u003ci\u003eAphorisms\u003c\/i\u003e assembles the sonic detritus of daily life into hauntingly intimate aural soundscapes. Made between Lambkin's residence in East London and Blank Forms in New York, \u003ci\u003eAphorisms\u003c\/i\u003e superimposes the two spaces onto one another creating an imaginary stage where his musical dramas unfold. A transatlantic mediation on the rooms where Lambkin has lived and worked, Aphorisms summons up hallucinatory vistas by way of the composer’s collage technique, layering field recordings, piano, guitar, percussion, vocal fragments, and repurposed elements on top of one another in double, triple, and quadruple exposures. Like the Shadow Ring’s Lindus (Swill Radio, 2001) - recorded between Folkestone and Miami - \u003ci\u003eAphorisms\u003c\/i\u003e ruminates on estrangement and displacement, catching Lambkin as he returns to London after two decades of living in the States, in his words, “leaving home to return home.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Blank Forms Editions","offers":[{"title":"Black LPx2","offer_id":50420241858891,"sku":"2021796","price":39.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"CDx2","offer_id":50420235567435,"sku":"2021795","price":24.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Aphorisms_57b2420f_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1726751737","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/aphorisms-3","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
