Third Karda Estra free anniversary mp3 single (well, about 8 minutes long) available. 

The third and final Karda Estra 10th anniversary single is out now and available as a free mp3 download from Soundclick: 
http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=107308&content=music 
The first two singles are still available for free as well. 

There Is No Finished World (mp3 single release 17/05/08) 

Inspired
to a degree by the surrealist painter Andre Masson's 'automatic
drawing' technique .... a spot of 'automatic composing', if you will.
Mason described automatic drawing as: 'physically, you must make a void
in yourself: the automatic drawing taking it's source in the
unconscious must appear as an unforseen birth. The first graphic
apparitions on the paper are pure gesture, rhythm, incantation, and as
a result, pure scrawl. This is the first phase. In the second phase,
the image that was latent reclaims it's rights.' 

I decided to
make a simple two finger guitar chord the 'pencil' and the timing of
5/4 the 'canvas.' I then recorded a 'stream of consciousness' set of
these two finger chords bouncing around the neck of the guitar for my
first phase. The second phase was seeing what I could do melodically
with these sequences ... which also included adjusting a few bars to
3/4. 

Credits: Richard Wileman (composer, producer, classical,
electric and bass guitars, keyboards, percussion, bouzouki), Helen
Dearnley (violin), Zoe Josey (flute, soprano saxophone), Amy Hedges
(clarinet). 

Best wishes, 
Richard Wileman
