{"product_id":"chrystabell-david-lynch-cellophane-memories","title":"Chrystabell \u0026 David Lynch - Cellophane Memories","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe origin of Chrystabell and David Lynch’s album Cellophane Memories comes from a vision that David experienced during a nighttime walk through a forest\u003cbr\u003eof tall trees, over the tops of which he saw a bright light. As he recalls it, the light became the lilt of Chrystabell’s voice and revealed a secret to him. It is from\u003cbr\u003ethese mysterious convergen- ces of light and sound, day and night, starry sky and black forest that Chrystabell and David’s collaboration has continued to\u003cbr\u003eblossom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor Cellophane Memories, the two have traveled through different portals. Fittingly, many of the songs are set in fairytale forests, mountain peaks, swimming\u003cbr\u003eholes, crepus- cular highways and darkened bedrooms. These are the abodes of both loneliness and romance, the sorts of sublime landscapes where people\u003cbr\u003eoften travel alone in search of a wayward lover. But they are also shapeless atmospheres—of color, weather and breath: blue and white skies, red roses,\u003cbr\u003edarkening thunderheads, swirling winds and summer perfumes, which quickly immerse the traveler in the supernatural sensations of other worlds.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTime is a mercurial creature in Chrystabell and David’s songs. The characters are little more than oblique sketches of time’s quotidian melodramas: people\u003cbr\u003earrive and depart as strangers, strangers fall into despair and love, lovers part at the crossroads and re- unite in a dream. In this quantum matinee of everyday\u003cbr\u003elife, each character is both a star\u003cbr\u003eand a background extra. Elisions in time reappear over and over within Chrystabell’s vocals, which emerge and dissolve and loop back in layers of harmony\u003cbr\u003eand history. They are mantled by David’s, and late composer Angelo Badalamenti’s, orchestra of waldeinsamkeit-inspired strings, oneiric guitar glissandi and\u003cbr\u003eclouds of reverb, whose melodies are like the sensation of time pausing for a first kiss.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs with much of Chrystabell and David’s work from the past, Cellophane Memories re- turns us to a central question: what is a mystery? Alas, the riddle\u003cbr\u003eremains unanswered. But all mystery contains slivers of those conceits and feelings described above: the departing and the coming-back, the landscape,\u003cbr\u003eatmosphere and breath, the topsy turvy mechanisms of time, memories of the bygone, a distant light radiating from darkness, music within silence, love.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"SACRED BONES RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"Sublime Eternal Yellow Vinyl","offer_id":54579089244483,"sku":"RPT-25746","price":26.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0821\/1601\/8499\/files\/Cellophane_Memories_e65810ee_thumbnail_4096.png?v=1782140071","url":"https:\/\/www.recordplant.co.uk\/products\/chrystabell-david-lynch-cellophane-memories","provider":"Record Plant","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
