Various Artists - Aquapelago: an Oceans Anthology Introducing a new series of concept albums based around the idea of the Aquapelago.* ‘’Since the earliest days of the planet there has been a rhythm of tides that creates coastal interzones where humans have foraged and pursued various livelihoods. Developing boats to fish from and technologies that enabled them to immerse themselves deep underwater, the aquatic realm has been one explored, experienced and imagined in various ways. In an effort to express the vitality and richness of this environment I coined the term aquapelago in 2012. The wordplay was deliberate. The neologism was designed to distinguish the liquid inbetweenness of this space from the dry, scattered, lands of archipelagos. This compilation album takes the concept of the aquapelago into new depths and breaches it on fresh shores. The tracks are soaked with the aquatic. Bassy sonorities boom as if heard deep underwater. Bubbly textures breach the surface, water drips and seabirds soar high above waves.‘’ Philip Wayward Featuring Sugai Ken, Andrew Pekler, Vica Pacheco, Babau, Francesco Cavaliere with Tomoko Sauvage, Yannick Dauby and Sculpture.
