"today we release total serene, and with it, the song “unison”. the track is the first release to feature samples taken from the archives of renowned composer, explorer and recordist david fanshawe. 

in the late 1970’s, fanshawe travelled to the pacific islands and commenced work on a project that was to become the most comprehensive and important collection of indigenous pacific music ever put to tape. his work is invaluable and we’re enormously grateful to his family for their collaboration and their continued work in stewarding this precious and significant collection. you can expect future releases to feature his recordings.



similarly, in early 2020 we traveled to the “polynesian capital of the world” — auckland, NZ — to work with a team of exceptional traditional maori and pasifika musicians, singers and storytellers.



pasifika and maori identity has informed much of the next phase of our work, along with the extraordinary life of dave’s late father, Teleso Le’aupepe.



we appreciate all of you and your continued support."



for anyone curious about the stylistic shift they've been teasing, this from the mailing list gives you an idea

I throw this on once in a while, and there’s already some nostalgia with Let Me Down Easy because of how much I heard it while traveling Australia early last year, and it always has such emotional resonance at times (mainly the first few songs, The Heart is a Muscle, and Deepest Sighs); if it were 20 minutes shorter I’d easily give a 4.5+ rating, but it’s just too bloated at 1 hour and 18 minutes long, like where was the editor when they put this together.
