Celer - Being Below

Being Below is a mini-album of short songs created with digital and analogue instruments, recorded in 2020.
Written with a structure that reflects shifting states, overlooking the past and future as a split pathway
with the present endlessly fluctuating between. The pangs of rumination. An exercise in loop-less writing.

Mastered by Stephan Mathieu at Schwebung, and designed by Rutger Zuydervelt.

Pressed in a limited edition of 150 crystal clear 12" vinyl, 150 black 12" vinyl in a reverse-board sleeve as a
dual release from Past Inside the Present and Two Acorns. A CD edition in a reverse-board 4-panel package with
glass-mastered CD is also available from Two Acorns.


Afterword:
Staring out, tense. Looking down isn’t so different than looking up, but it passes by faster. Contentment at the
accomplishment that I'm here, and the fear that what I’ve always been looking for has passed by. Staring up and
looking at the sky, wishing you were up here with me, here where you can see everything. Above, the surface drifts
by, and the colors on the horizon in pale blues makes me calm. Then blue. Deep in pale blue.

Again, in the morning. Close your eyes. Repeating this, repeating that, then it changes. Try to stay focused,
but you've already moved out of sight. You're a million miles away, and farther. Waiting for night. Stars,
always beyond. Now, it's already tomorrow.
