DGM Records is launching the Robert Fripp \u201cMusic for Quiet Moments\u201d series. They will be releasing a soundscape every Friday on DGMLive, Youtube, Spotify, Apple Music and all the main online music platforms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Says Co-producer David Singleton, \u201cHopefully something that will nourish us, and help us through these Uncertain Times. I have certainly enjoyed the peace that comes with editing and mastering them. Turning a seeming disadvantage to our advantage, a year at home without touring offers the chance to listen for the first time in many cases to existing live recordings. And there are treasures to be found!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Music For Quiet Moments\u2026
I<\/strong>
A Quiet Moment is how we experience a moment: the moment which is here, now and available.<\/strong>
Quiet moments are when we put time aside to be quiet; and also where we find them.Sometimes quiet moments find us.<\/strong>
Some places have an indwelling spirit, where quiet is a feature of the space:perhaps natural features in the landscape; perhaps intentionally created, as in a garden; perhaps where a spirit of place has come into being over time, as in an English country churchyard.<\/strong>
Quiet may be experienced with sound, and also through sound;in a place we hold to be sacred, maybe on a crowded subway train hurtling towards Piccadilly or Times Square.<\/strong>
A Quiet Moment is more to do with how we experience time than how we experience sound.<\/strong>
A Quiet Moment prepares the space where Silence may enter.
Silence is timeless.<\/strong>
IIMy own quiet moments, over fifty-one years of being a touring player, have been mostly in public places where, increasingly, a layer of noise has intentionally overlaid and saturated the sonic environment. <\/strong>
IIIQuiet Moments of my musical life, expressed in Soundscapes, are deeply personal; yet utterly impersonal: they address the concerns we share within our common humanity. <\/strong>
Paradoxically, they have mostly taken place in public contexts inimical and unsupportive of quiet.<\/strong>
Some of these Soundscapes are inward-looking, reflective.Some move outwards, with affirmation.Some go nowhere, simply being where they are.<\/strong>
