Action Research #136:

Drekka
(Bloomington, IN)
(experimental folk nested in drone & field recordings)

https://drekka.bandcamp.com/

"Drekka's previous works run parallel to Edward Artemiev's soundtracks for Andrei Tarkovsky, Simon Fischer Turner's abstractions for Derek Jarman mixed with more contemporary groups like Nurse With Wound or Coil. Ethereral folk that takes on a tranquil lullaby quality, layered and textured, deconstructed and rebuilt to cause a quiet discomfort. Utilizing his endless personal sound library in a manner unique to Anderson, these compositions are arranged more like a film, showing us a glimpse into Drekka's soundtracks to films unmade." -- Dais Records press release for Drekka's "Ekki gera fikniefnum" LP
