Everyday Loneliness - Recontextualizations [Arbor; 2012]
Wondrous label Arbor has been in hibernation. Only now is it beginning to shake off the layers of fur and snow after a sustained silence. Sleeping Beauty has been awakened by the gentle caress of Jon Borges’ Everyday Loneliness. An elegant two-sider, Recontextualizations is the calm alarm hailing Arbor's return, Borges exploring the many varieties of waking up. Side A begins with the harsh Winter winds dissipating into a Spring sprinkle before the echoing roar of the Summer ripples through the sleepy valley. The B-side is hot, hazy with the incessant sun thawing the shadows as Borges’ world blossoms in full. How we have missed Arbor and Everyday Loneliness, once again ready to meet the world at her most fertile.
