“Craven Faults have a few clear kin: think Pye Corner Audio and the synth-powered
wing of the Ghost Box label, the tin-pot analogue constructions of the BBC
Radiophonic Orchestra, or even past outer-limits explorers like Throbbing Gristle. If
krautrock felt like a reaction to Germany’s totalitarian past, a new chapter defined by
freaky optimism and a race to the margins, Craven Faults also feels like a historical
reckoning of sorts: a cold elegy to Britain’s industrial heyday, its nostalgia not guided
by entreaties to “Keep Calm And Carry On”, but by an angry nobility and a deep-
seated sadness for what has passed” 8/10, Lead review, Uncut
“Glacial landscapes a go-go on mesmerising debut by Yorkshire producer” 4/5 Mojo
“Often feeling less like the work of human hands than sounds breathed out by the
moors around their Yorkshire home, the drones have an almost geological weight
and pace” 9/10, DJ Magazine
“70s-era Tangerine Dream, with perhaps a dash of Phillip Glass-style minimalism”
Electronic Sound
“A record of hypnotic beauty, with soundscapes of both the rural and the urban
North brought to life, thanks to a collection of addictive modular synth patterns”
Record Collector
Erratics & Unconformities is the first album by Craven Faults. It follows three EPs:
Netherfield Works, Springhead Works and Nunroyd Works. Long-form analogue
electronic journeys across decades and continents, and swathes of post-industrial
northern Britain.
The journey on Erratics & Unconformities picks up where Netherfield Works left off.
We take the canal towpath out of the city. We fork north shortly afterwards. Is this
where it started? The terrain gradually becomes more rugged. Familiar. Wild.
Evidence of human activity is less immediate in this glacial landscape. It’s there if you
seek it. But easy to ignore. If you listen carefully, you can still hear the weight of the
ice-sheet carving its way through the rock.
Everything in its own time. The output from the old textile mill Craven Faults calls
home is no longer as linear as it once was. There was no clear start point for the
project, rather simply rediscovering the joy in experimentation with no material
goals. Some of the recordings that make up Erratics & Unconformities go back almost
seven years. Tracks have come and gone in that time. They don’t leave until they’ve
undertaken a stringent quality control process. It started slowly, but has picked up
momentum in the last eighteen months. Recorded and re-recorded to the correct
level of imperfection, and then left to breathe. Mixed and re-mixed. Carefully
compiled when the time was right.
