about

James Osland is an audio visual artist from Devon, UK who as well as running Elm Records, has also released on labels such as Green Field Recordings, Shimmering Moods Records, Flaming Pines, Sonospace and Audio Gourmet.
He’s been recording and making music for around 7 years but over the last 2 years has been recording under his own name with a focus on our relationship between sound, memory and place. He has performed as a solo live artist in various countries including The UK, New Zealand and Vietnam as well as being part of live improvised groups including The Elm Collective and The Bristol Ambient Ensemble.

Gone For A While is an album built around a core made from field recordings, taken from South East Asia and Europe. These were then processed using various computer software programs and a small amount of instrumentation was added throughout the album. The album was written after James had returned back to his home town after several years spent living abroad. He was suddenly confronted with lots of old memories that he’d pushed to the back of his mind. Having lost his father not long before leaving the UK and having watched his grandfather suffer through dementia for the past 7 years, he began to reflect heavily on themes of memory, loss and decay. The concept of the album seeks to explore the processes our minds go through whilst dealing with loss.
