Hi Dermot, I know nothing more other than what is posted on Wikipedia. I don't know how they managed to produce so much work in so short a space of time. I was on Norman records recently and I got a load of Celer stuff, including an album on music cassette!

"Engaged touches" is one I enjoy very much.

Hi Adrian, So you know about his partner Danielle, music and otherwise, who died from heart failure at a tragically young age. Sad that....Norman records was my first place of call last summer when I got a load of 12" and 7" vinyl of them! It's only now I'm coming around to appreciating what they bring to the table. At first everything sounded all samey. Anyway my favourites are : Dwell in Possibility, Vestiges of an Inherent Melancholy and Chubby Wolf's Turkey Decoy. As you probably know Danielle was a massive wolf admirer and actually had one as a pet! So you can gather from that, that the Chubby Wolf name is actually herself :)

Thanks for the posts Dermot...

Currently listening to "Without Retrospect, the morning"

I tried listening to it in the car... not possible due to it being too low frequency and very very smooth and subtle... but very nice!! Sounded much better with 801's and a proper valve amplifier!!!!!!!!!!!

Celer - I, Anatomy




For George and Nina Benson

I, Anatomy

'My friend, 103 years old, sat across the room from me, a small gas heater nearby, with photos of family and Martin Luther King, Jr., and we talked for a few hours in the late morning. I had brought him a plant a few years before, and planted it in the front yard, but it had died the winter before.

A carnival in Costa Mesa, California. Kids screaming on the rollercoasters, the sound of balloons popping, machinery spinning, with smells of beer and popcorn all over the ground.

In an airplane flying over Papeete, the safety and welcome announcement CD skipped at such a point that the voices became a looped choir, as the plane coasted in circles around the edges of beaches, and the stewardess ran in the tipping plane in heels to fix the CD.

We made a box of tape loops in the Malibu Motel, from strings and pianos, and an old reel to reel tape of Sinatra. From the top of the cliffs, the view was completely clear, and even in a completely black and starless night, nothing stirred.

A few stories, put together with no previous purpose, than having their own place and time. In being put together, something new is formed. This was the basis for I, Anatomy. There wasn't any intention, it was just a diary. These things happened, and became the source material, finding their directions from what was before directionless, and become the whole. Going back to these moments and memories, I, Anatomy isn't a story, it's one hundred stories.' Will Long

The original I, Anatomy also included the EPs All At Once Is What Eternity Is and The Die That's Caste, now together in a single edition as they were originally intended, with artwork by Christoph Heemann.
