Benjamin Burke's introspective poetry acts as a gentle compass, winding through immersive textures that invite both inner reflection and cosmic curiosity.
Shape of the Moon is the California-based duo of Benjamin Burke and Bear Glass that explores existential headspaces beyond mundane frames of thought. Following streams of consciousness that contemplate everything from the stardust that forms us to the very first human sound that reverberated through a cave, Shape of the Moon intertwines language and music into ambient, dream-weaving narratives.
When the land is laid bare forms a collection of recordings composed of Burke reciting his introspective poems and Glass improvising gripping modular synth and string patterns. Burke brings a wealth of experience working across an impressively vast range of written and visual mediums to Glass's live electronics and acoustic instrumentation, mirroring the spoken word. The pieces on the album consist of excerpts from live outdoor performances under the night sky in the Mojave Desert, as well as sessions in Glass's off-grid, solar-powered studio. Burke drapes vivid vocal narration over deeply immersive textures and melodies conjured up by Glass on Buchla, bass, and sitar, painting peaks and valleys that live-score the storytelling. The duo tread their own path, fusing poetry with undulating electroacoustic instrumentals and arriving at meditative and ASMR territories that draw inspiration from ambient and electronica.
This debut album by Shape of the Moon marks Marionette's 30th release, its inquisitive yet playful spirit marveling at the mysteries of the universe.
