Wishing all you readers, writers, dreamers and believers a serene and happy Christmas. Chuck some chestnuts on the fire, pull up a battered armchair, and let this perfect audio accompaniment to the day — put together especially for us by Jack Cooper (Modern Nature) — waft through the speaker grille.

Accompanying artwork is by Tara Okon.

Jack’s contribution to our Aerial Festival programme earlier this year — a 10-minute guitar improvisation which he titled ‘Rydalwater’ — will be released as a 7” single on Rivertones early in 2021. More on that soon.
