Season Four is nearly here: this is not so much a trailer as a warning. Or more likely, an explanation. This year hasn't gone as expected, this isn't the Season Four I'd planned to do. But not long ago I got an idea to try a season that was improvised, but more edited together as a real 'show' was. I also couldn't travel to record, which was the plan originally, but I could do some field recording and I had ideas for spoken word elements that would add to that 'programme' feel whilst adding new textures and still being a form of diary. In particular, doing the field recordings became a sort of study of my aural hyperacuity and my guitar performance as a response or balance to that. And it's not to say I haven't done anything at all in the first part of the year, head over to strangetextures.com and check out all the albums, some edited versions of the podcast, some completely new (and free!) and tidied up previous episodes without me talking. There's also a blog if you want to know what's been going on or stay up to date with what's going on next. First episode should be up on Tuesday and I'll try and stick to one a week - I'm editing on the fly more this time just to get things happening, but will try to stick to the usual schedule (I'm working on episode one now, and it's hard to balamce the field recording without it making me freak out a bit).
