Pathways And Dawns
Reissue of 1999 album from widely known legendary drummer/percussionist of Dead Can Dance and This Mortal Coil. First time on vinyl. Fans of 4AD label, Dead Can Dance, Hector Zazou and Cocteau Twins should take note. Excellent sound and studio remastering by Martin Bowes (Attrition), taken from the original masters. Comes on black vinyl in heavy covers and with printed inner sleeve. 'Pathways And Dawns' is packed with driving rhythms and meditative ritual patterns of percussion. With some inspired guitar-work, arrangement and production from DCD mastermind Brendan Perry, the result is a pure delight... The album was recorded in two parts, the first in England in 1990, and the second after a long time break in 1996-97, by Brendan Perry at DCD's Quivvy Church studio in Ireland. The album was released on CD in 1999 on the US label Projekt and was dubbed by critics as "the album the Beatles might have made had the group signed with 4AD instead of Capitol" and "a wonderful collection of songs that, while in the 4AD school, shimmers with an inner lightness that makes it very different".
