Sometime Today

Sometime Today is the result of a fruitful collaboration between two of England’s most enduring ‘soundscape’ musicians, Darren Tate (of Ora and Monos) and Paul Bradley (who has also collaborated with Colin Potter, Adam Sonderberg and Cria Cuervos, among others). The album was released in the mid-noughties, during a productive phase for both artists, and you can hear the confidence with which their aesthetics merge through its near-forty-minute length. That extended time gives them enough space to explore their material in some detail, and there’s something particularly evocative about the work here, weaving a thread of submerged phenomenon, church bells chiming through arcs of irradiated feedback.
