"Born of a conversa2on centered on the no2on of “rich sources” as a forge for electronic music, Colours Of Air is a collec2on of recordings of a century old pipe organ housed at the historic Old Museum in Brisbane, Australia, which were then processed, transformed, and elevated into eight majes2c electro-acous2c threshold devo2onals. The 2mbre of the instrument and spa2al fluctua2ons of room tone infuse the music with a subdued, sacred feel, like vaulted light in a nave of stained glass. They describe the album as “an itera2ve project, a reduc2on and eventual expansion,” siding the swells and drones of the organ for every shivering shade of radiance. The tracks are named for the hue each piece suggests – from the gauzy levita2onal miasma of “Yellow” to the pulsing melancholic mirage of “Violet” to the seething twilit sandstorm of “Magenta.” Morgan and English are both adept at conjuring moods of muted grandeur, like landscapes veiled in dusk, s2ll looming and luminous."
