Haiku Salut, the acclaimed electronica trio from the Derbyshire dales release their fifth album. A beautiful study of ghosts and memory, the gestation of the record began when Haiku Salut's Sophie Barkerwood was given a Tascam field recorder. "I carried it around with me in case anything interesting happened. I guess I wanted to capture little pieces of the world in the same way we all take photographs," explains Sophie. "It wasn't immediately apparent that we would begin to use these sounds as the architecture for an album but as our writing process evolved the textures of these memories became a bank of inspiration."Musically, the album marries the expansive vision of their third album, 'There Is No Elsewhere', which celebrated identity and community, with the darker, more contemplative feel of their fourth album, the trio's original soundtrack for Buster Keaton's 'The General'. Building on the lessons learned working on 'The General', 'The Hill, The Light, The Ghost' is a cohesive suite, nine songs that combine to tell a larger story - that of experience and memory, of precious moments and echoes of past lives. Reviews confirmed to run in Uncut, Mojo, Electronic Sound, Wire and more.(1) Wide Awake (2) Entering (3) We Need These Beams (4) I Dreamed I Was Awake For A Very Long Time (5) How The Day Starts (6) All Watched Over By Machines Of Loving Grace (7) Try Again And Again And Again (8) Trespass (9) All Clear
