Considerable

longmo Sitting in the loggia while a thunderstorm is passing by. Strong winds, rain and distant thunder. The track blends so beautiful and discreet into the forces of nature, as almost been born out of it. This is art, great, thank you! Favorite track: Sky Smokes & Electronics.

chazzybelt Ned's work has a way of showing reverence for nature, patience, negative space, and stillness. It's an incredibly grounding thing to put one of his records on and get consumed by the magic of your everyday surroundings. The simple act of walking to the mail has been a silent (and oddly sacred) ritual of mine for my entire life. Surely I'm not alone. How is there only one song in the world dedicated to such an act? No matter. I don't need any others. Favorite track: Mailbox Walk.

APK Nice! Intimate understated sounds.

___________________________________________________

Ned Milligan is a New York based elementary school teacher and occasional musician.
He’s behind the great small-run label Florabelle since 2015.
This is his sixth solo album.
__________________________

"My work in the past five years has been grounded in recording and playing outdoors, trying to communicate the meaning of being in a particular location and finding meaning in interacting with whatever sounds or elements are equally present. I'm still excited by all of it! This sense of purpose continues with Considerable and the most I could wish for is that the specificity of what I am doing and where I'm doing it manages to evoke something in anyone listening--a connection to their own environments and spaces. None of these pieces is strictly documentary or one-take in approach or composition, but I hope that the combination of processed and "factual" sounds achieve integrity."

With no forward momentum and therefore no expectation of the next note, eventually these pieces etch out a pattern, at a welcomed glacial pace. Piano is welcomed also. Very well thought out. Richard Erickson
