Hometime // Sedayne // Ploughmyth 91096

Its attention to slow slow-shaping timbre managed to burst through my anti-folk prejudices... Handful of Dust meets Alan Stivell? Sonically immersive / anxiously celtic but guaranteed devoid of romantic bullshit

(Ben Watson)

For anyone looking for a 'way in' to Sedayne's proximal sound-world, then Hometime is the place to begin. Critically acclaimed, considered for release by Leo Records (imagine - Sedayne a stablemate of Anthony Braxton & Sun Ra!) and featured on Radio Three's Mixing It, it certainly represents his most public work to date, but ultimately the appeal of Hometime is simply that of any masterpiece: that it transcends its genre to be classifiable only as universal.
