about

Washington DC ambient/remix/AV collective BLK w/BEAR created this album by reconfiguring source material from Manchester-based group Last Harbour. BLK w/BEAR never do anything in a minor way and, when asked to contribute a single remix for Last Harbour's 'Your Heart, It Carries The Sound' album, instead constructed an entire album of new compositions that feature mesmerising ambient drones, percussive cut-ups and glitching electronica.

In the artists' own words: 'The Final Mapping Of New Constellations' finds its touchstones and tonal mechanics in such disparate influences as onomatopoeia, Freemasonry, musica universalis, freak folk, clipped speech and audio saturation, Max Ernst, Kosmiche Musik and Alabama state licence plates."

ECHOES & DUST: "Somewhere within 'The Final Mapping of New Constellations' is a sonic holy place where the traces of 'The Stars Look Down' have been reassembled into a glorious whole."
DECODER: "A space-bound entity, evoking the vast harmonious shifting of the cosmos through the use of glitchy tape cuts, hovering strings and echoing drones."
FLUID RADIO: "A fantastic collection of pieces which offers plenty of promise as the first release from this new label."
SUBJECTIVISTEN: "A peerless and most compelling album."
