Portugal-based artist Kantfish releases Eclipse of a New Order today, a 23-minute experimental sound work specifically conceived around the 12 August eclipse.
Developed from the earlier Perspective of a New Order project, the piece investigates information overload, automatic behaviour, urban systems and the possibility of interrupting habitual attention.
Spoken text, ambient sound, field recordings, drone and conceptual sound design replace traditional songwriting.
Rather than attempting to sonically illustrate an eclipse, Kantfish treats the event as an opportunity to question perception itself: what becomes visible when everyday noise briefly changes? Its same-day conceptual connection makes Eclipse of a New Order one of today's most unusual independent releases.
