In The Event Of My Disappearance

'Alongside our own double release, In the Event of My Disappearance, released on China’s Midnight Productions, is one of the final ARP releases. And a fine one it is! Dave Colohan focuses mostly on piano-driven songs here, which is a new route compared to earlier albums. The songs are sparse, calm, and feature subtle additions of other instruments and vocals by guest artists like Michael Tanner and Yasmin Chaudhry. All of the tracks breathe that calm beauty that characterises much of Colohan’s work, but “Breath of Bells” must be the absolute standout, a gripping song with intense chorus climaxes on ebowed guitar.
