"Sub Rosa presents the re-release of a classic: Robin Rimbaud's aka Scanner tribute to Derek Jarman. Derek Jarman was one of England's greatest cinematique visionairies. Spanning painting, theatre, film, he comfortably moved between genres, seemingly shape shifting at will. From designing ballet and theatre in the sixties for Frederick Ashton and Ken Russell, through to his own films in super-8 and seminal features such as Sebastiane (1976), Jubilee (1978), The Last of England (1987) and Blue (1993), Jarman explored a unique and compelling vision until his death from AIDS in 1994. Robin Rimbaud aka Scanner was both a friend and collaborator over the years and this CD is his tribute to an important figure in both his life and others. Using recordings of Jarman's voice as well as location recordings around his home, he creates a graceful and delicate sculpture in sound. This is a close friend's tribute, backed by a profound understanding of the filmmaker's sense of intimacy, atmosphere and drama."
