Gregor - Songs for springs & nails, piano, electric bass, abandoned guitar and voices Vol. I LP

Songs for springs (and other things) is a meditation arising from tactile percussion comprised of springs, nails, plywood and piezoelectric transducers. The transducers transform a miniature and faint sonic world into an expressive and unusual landscape. Traditional instruments follow suit to sculpt motifs blending elements of jazz, musical theatre, avant-garde and modernism.

Featuring lyrics and voices made together with choreographer and dancer Alice Heyward, the album resembles a stage play depicting soliloquy and dialogue that deal predominantly with the psyche. Through the narrative of an evening in a bathtub, or in a garden, or in a lounge room, the listener follows a figure—or a couple—passing through regularity, turmoil, hallucination, sleep and sleeplessness. They find company among spirits, angels, demons, domestic work, visions, the night, light and body.
