about

Two pieces.

One is just music, one has words. The title of the single refers both to the words of the poem that appears as part of the second track, but also to the fact that, in using a single room mic for the performance set in the middle, the artists' "handprints" (that is to say, evidence of their physical presence in the room during the recording) are part of the work itself.

Recordings made on a second hand Olympus S713 dictaphone at Studio Klank, Wood Green.
