Orla Wren’s individual pieces are each like a single exhalation drawn out and slowed so that every particle of air, every bit of woodland mist, every icy molecule of breath is discernible.
Experimental artist Orla Wren is releasing his new album Book Of The Folded Forest through Home Normal in August, get a taster and watch two of the films that feature on this exquisite CD/DVD release.
Orla Wren is Tui. North East bred, Tui broke away early from the unnecessary trappings of the modern world ( little things, like bank accounts and living in buildings ), becoming that most unlikely ofindividuals ; a be-dreadlocked, lap-top wielding, soundscape creating Neo-Gypsy.
