August 2012 – Digital album release of “Entomology” by Martin Kay and David Reaston.

In 2011 Martin Kay and David Reaston spent one hour in the studio, spontaneously laying down four tracks, recording the result of many years’ informal rehearsing and jamming.  Billow presents a gentle melodicism, relaxing and unthreatening, with close attention to each tone. The word conjures a picture of branches swaying softly in a late afternoon sun. Entomology has a harder edge, the soft melodicism replaced by urgent darting movements. Break Away (Explorations) is a rendition of David Reaston’s graphic score, producing some otherworldy and nasty sounds with flurrying technique. Monarch Butterfly revives the peaceful atmosphere, with its delicate and graceful sound world.
