專輯介紹
兼具作曲家及電影創作人Anthony Tombling Jr，第一次將自己的實驗影片”Exist”中的音樂曲目，分成兩張EP ”Exist 1”和”Exist 2”發行。Anthony Tombling Jr自述整張專輯創作概念:「啟發於一次因車禍而導致的睡眠麻痺，我決定將經驗透過音樂及影片去再造，從此之後改變了我去貼近音樂的方式，而《Exist》就是各種視界、感觀、體驗再造的成果。在蒐集素材時，我喜歡將無聲的東西，如一個廢墟空間，去想像並創造其應聽起來的模樣，藉聲音之外的一切開始創作，讓我的音樂較不具有被比較性。身為一個作曲家，這種創作過程是極深層淨化的。」
CUTS, composer and filmmaker Anthony Tombling Jr, is set to release music from his experimental film "EXIST" for the first time. This Aprils dual release of EPs ""EXIST 1" & "EXIST 2" on Village Green will precede a debut album on the label.
“In 2012 I was involved in a car crash and the resulting shock manifested itself in experiencing sleep paralysis for the first time. I was inspired to try and recreate some of those experiences through music and film. It made me view my approach to music in a different way, Exist is a collection of those visions. With all CUTS material I try to take influence from the non-musical, for instance an abandoned space. There is a stillness with places that are in slow decay. I try to imagine what that would sound like? In taking influence from things outside of music I feel my own music becomes less tied to comparison. As a composer working this way has been deeply cathartic.”
