about

PERIAL - LOOM OF CONSCIOUSNESS [RKTCD001]

"We do not know much about the artist behind Reaktivate´s 1st ever album release, Perial. He calls himself a new artist, but the work on display here reveals quite a lot of maturity and we suspect he might have released music before. He feels he hasn´t much else to say beyond what´s said with his music, but that music speaks to us quite a lot. And, let´s be honest, that´s what matters. In fact, on the day we received the music that you are about to hear in this record, by the artist´s own spontaneous initiative, our own questioning of "who is this?" was quickly substituted by the certainty of "we must release this" as the music unfurled on to our ears. We had no intention of putting out an album yet, and Perial was intent on simply releasing it digitally himself, but we felt it was important to provide whatever support we could to this beautiful work, and even decided to do a limited CD release, such was our belief that the music herein deserved preservation and tangibility.

That is the story behind this release, and it´s content seems to tell a story too, as the titles of the tracks signpost the passing of the years, from the past into a somewhat distant future, interconnected like the weaving of rich tapestry through the Loom Of Consciousness which is, after all, what neuroscientist Charles Sherrington metaphorically described as "the enchanted loom" : the human brain. Sherrington spoke of the awakening of the human cortex as being similar to watching a sparkling field of rhythmic flashing points with trains of travelling sparks spreading out, like the Milky Way entering some sort of Cosmic Dance. "an enchanted sonic loom where millions of flashing shuttles weave a dissolving pattern, always a meaningful pattern though never an abiding one; a shifting harmony of subpatterns".

We truly do not know whether this metaphor was present in Perial´s mind when he created this amazing album, but we will wholeheartedly adopt it as the best possible description of the music you are about to hear"
