Slow to Speak proudly presents the newest installment of their highly regarded reissue series, featuring the unknown instrumental masterpiece “Sea Joy” on a special single-sided 12” pressing. A work of exceptional, climactic majesty, “Sea Joy” draws its inspiration from the contemplative reclusion of desolate natural beauty, an aural ode to the poetic celebration of pastoral serenity typical of the romantic tradition---equally as ethereal though dialectically opposite from electronic production in its refutation of the urban wellspring of creative resource. Ironically, Paul Winters’ splendorous, worldly instrumentation & breathtaking orchestral direction was recorded at the Cathedral of St. John’s the Devine in New York City, located squarely amidst the polluting & disorienting haze of strenuous metropolitan frenzy. Regardless, the result of this session was our subject of concern, a piece of serenely peaceful & sincerely-inspired music that Blake or Shelley would be more than proud to claim as their rightful heir.
