{"product_id":"james-elkington-pastel-de-nada","title":"James Elkington- Pastel De Nada","description":"\u003cp\u003eIn 2023 James Elkington released Me Neither, a double album of solo guitar improvisations and experiments. He ended up thinking of it as a wordless collection of library music. 'Library music' is a trove of anonymously produced sound that can be plundered for any kind of use and Elkington, the Chicago based British guitarist, nds a freedom in this music that seems to come out nowhere. He follows up Me Neither with Pastel de Nada, a new 2xLP set where the 27 tracks amount to more of a toolkit than a library. Bright, optimistic strums like 'The Lyre Concordia', layered meditations like 'Morny in the Earling' and 'The Caves at Aurangabad', and tracks like 'The Equal Spacing' that tick and whir like little machines for generating joy. Elkington squares his guitars off against textures, atmospheres and whispers of percussion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTrack List\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e \u003cli\u003eMorny in the Earling\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e I Altered\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e An Anechoic Orchestra\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Sun Rats\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Pont Du Poivre\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Draw a Head\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Ortemega\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e The Equal Spacing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Nonpareils in a Bottle\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Nana Fermur\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e The Submersible Community\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Don't Tell Anyone\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Golden K\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Ever in the Latening\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Window Weapon Speaks\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e The Lyre Concordia\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Fast Eyes (And Neck)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e The Unexpected City\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e A Moon Crows\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Build Your Own Background\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e No Time Is Passing\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Very Berk Squad\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Everybody's Colleyland\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e The Caves at Aurangabad\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e The Cats Are Bored\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Daft Zenith Nought\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003e Night-Felt\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ol\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53091531522384,"sku":"8.43563E+11","price":6.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/2762\/2480\/files\/4402098-3321588.jpg?v=1780304676","url":"https:\/\/noirrecordsuk.com\/products\/james-elkington-pastel-de-nada","provider":"Noir Records Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
