about

Paradise Repeated is the first installment in a series of works reimagining and reworking sound recordings that have largely faded into obscurity. Cast away to collect dust in the corners of basements, or in the bargain bins at your local record shop, selected sound fragments were physically reworked through the manipulation of tape loops, breathing a new life into sounds long forgotten. Each vinyl record possesses a unique fingerprint, scarred with scratches, chips, and dents, brought on by the physical handling over its lifetime. The intention is to preserve and enhance these qualities, commonly considered to be "flaws." The result is a collection of pieces steeped in a familiar and odd sense of nostalgia.

Music composed and mixed by Beachcomber

"Toronto based artist Beachcomber has a fascination with the art of tape looping. Embracing both the limitations and imperfections of this physical process, Beachcomber creates expansive yet subdued soundscapes that provide an enveloping backdrop for the listener’s surrounding environment. Tape loops are humbling objects; small pieces of physical material that possess self-contained compositions which evolve into something emotive through the use of repetition. Ultimately, Beachcomber's inspiration is derived from the challenge of filling such a limited space with immersive acquisitions of sound."
