It’s hard to stand out in such a crowded field but Ben Frost definitely does. He’s a leader in the movement and this record is fine example of why.

The Caretaker - Everywhere at the end of time (Stage 4)
https://thecaretaker.bandcamp.com/al...he-end-of-time

'Everywhere at the end of time' is a new and finite
series exploring dementia, its advance and its totality.

Featuring the sounds from the journey The Caretaker
as artist will make after being artistically diagnosed as having early
onset dementia.

Each stage will reveal new points of progression,
loss and disintegration. Progressively falling further
and further towards the abyss of complete memory
loss and nothingness.

Viewing dementia as a series of stages can be
a useful way to understand the illness, but it is
important to realise that this only provides a rough
guide to the progress of the condition.

Drawing on a recorded history of 20 years of
recollected memories this is one final journey
and study into recreating the progression of
dementia through sound.

--

Stage 1 - September 2016 (A+B)
Here we experience the first signs of memory loss.
This stage is most like a beautiful daydream.
The glory of old age and recollection.
The last of the great days.

Stage 2 - April 2017 (C+D)
The second stage is the self realisation and awareness that something is wrong with a refusal to accept that. More effort is made to remember so memories can be more long form with a little more deterioration in quality. The overall personal mood is generally lower than the first stage and at a point before confusion starts setting in.

Stage 3 - September 2017 (E+F)
Here we are presented with some of the last coherent memories before confusion fully rolls in and the grey mists form and fade away. Finest moments have been remembered, the musical flow in places is more confused and tangled. As we progress some singular memories become more disturbed, isolated, broken and distant. These are the last embers of awareness before we enter the post awareness stages.

Stage 4 - April 2018 (G+H+I+J)
Post-Awareness Stage 4 is where serenity and the ability to recall singular memories gives way to confusions and horror. It's the beginning of an eventual process where all memories begin to become more fluid through entanglements, repetition and rupture.

Stage 5 - Released in September 2018
Post awareness stage 5 may be without description.

Stage 6 - Released in March 2019
Post awareness stage 6 may be without description.

I read about that. I’m on his mailing list. He mentioned that part of that is to raise money for a mental health advocacy group in honor of author Mark Fisher.

Anthology One by GUiLT

This a gudun. Part drone, part dark ambient, with a heavy nod to early electro-acoustic avant-garde.

Everyone says the same thing. Half of Dead Texan but she’s released 4 masterpieces since then. Like 36 above this is gold standard music.
