After collaborating on Dakota Suite's remix project The Night Just Keeps Coming In (KK 051CD), Chris Hooson of Dakota Suite asked Italian experimental artist Emanuele Errante to collaborate with him on a project composed for the death of his sister-in-law called The North Green Down. Chris had composed a series of themes around the loss of his sister-in-law and in Emanuele found a partner to create the sounds which would evoke loss, the temporary nature of life and the stillness to get through. The North Green Down also features the marvelous cello of David Darling who creates textures and waves of melancholy unlike anyone else. Almost 80 minutes of fragile pianos, guitars, cello & subtle electronic elements... cinematic, hypnotic and simply beautiful.
"I sent the basic piano and guitar pieces I had recorded at home to Emanuele. I had previously bought his records and felt in him a sympathetic soul who would feel the weight of this music and make it more fitting for the purpose I had in mind, namely a suite of hymnal pieces for Hannah. Hannah was a beautiful, selfless and nurturing woman. This record is for her." --Chris Hooson, September 2010
