Description
Released in 2017, ‘PHANTOM BRICKWORKS’
began an ongoing ambient / drone project by
Stephen James Wilkinson aka Bibio.
The work explores the human echoes still present
in various sites around Britain. Wilkinson has
visited these locations, observed their gradual
decline, and responded with improvised and
composed music.
New for 2024, a sequel titled ‘PHANTOM
BRICKWORKS (LP II)’ is a 10-track LP, mastered
by Guy Davie and vinyl cut by Hendrik Pauler.
The new record draws attention to new sites –
some are intriguing, vast scars on the natural
landscape, others survive only in local memories,
historic clips and photographs. A few remain
submerged from ordinary sights, while some exist
purely as legends and stories.
“Phantom Brickworks lives up to its name; it feels
haunted while also offering up a hope to rebuild”-
Pitchfork
