The fallible are so liberated and free, No monochrome intent, they live in the grey, Be uncomfortable, not tortured, make uncertainties benign, You just can’t feel right - all of the time. Sail on a sea of dissonance, with Owls in the hull, A battered sailboat, a moral compass, your rationale, Thoughts and emotions reside in the dock, How awful? How likely? Don’t keel, just take stock Well, the Owls are the thoughts that bring us down, They have few natural predators skulking around, Apart from the Hawk, they seem unassailable, Leave them to fester, be listless yet capable.

about

The Russian Linesman is a “modern day composer” who has become a somewhat cult figure over the past eleven years, crossing paths with mavericks such as James Holden, Nathan Fake, Ryan Davis, Applescal and Laurent Garnier, along the way. In a series of 7-track mini-LP releases throughout 2017, titled ‘The Eysenck Suites I-IV’, the Russian Linesman explored the psychological theories of Hans Eysenck and the emotions they encompass, a project that the British Psychological Society endorsed: thepsychologist.bps.org.uk/finding-melancholic-balance

Now, in 2018 the Russian Linesman is set to embark on an ambitious remix project, giving a carefully selected array of highly talented visionaries the opportunity to interpret his own musical adventures. This new series features remixes of some of the ‘The Eysenck Suites I-IV’ finest moments, the catalyst being those tracks aired by Nemone at BBC 6Music.

These 'Sierra Madre' remixes span gorgeous, floating melodic beauty from Somfay; glitchy soundtrack synthetics courtesy of Sun Glitters; Daar’s perfect head-nodding beats, alongside Dimer Ynni’s deeply delicious percussive groove experimentation; heartfelt, hypnotic majesty from Ocean Lost; a journey into the dub echo chamber from the Russian Linesman himself; and James Yorkson’s epic beatless soundscape finale.
