Erik Klinga Hundred Tongues Vinyl LP 2026
- Spring To Mind
- Opaque Stars
- Conspiracy Of Silence
- Fall Again
- Hundred Tongues
The Swedish electroacoustic composer Erik Klinga presents "Hundred Tongues", the second installmentâfollowing "Elusive Shimmer" (2025)âin a trilogy of albums released by the Thanatosis label. Issued digitally and as a limited edition of 200 copies on 180-gram vinyl housed in an Invercote sleeve, it continues Klingaâs intricate exploration of sound and space.
Darker and more dystopian in its bloom, "Hundred Tongues" absorbs the unease of the present and yet throws a flash of light, albeit blinding. Composed at Malmö Art Museum on the 16th-century Genarpsorgan, and threaded with Buchla synthesizer, field recordings from SkĂ„ne and Ăland, and a deliberate, focused touch, it unfolds as one long form: episodes that coil, return, and reconfigure rather than resolve.
âSpring to Mindâ begins with static and the pressure of thin air, as though drawn from the negative space between signals. Noise condenses into a hum, clarifies into tone, and organ chords hover between physical and imagined terrain. âOpaque Starsâ blurs the seam between pipes and circuits, its crystalline timbre evoking avian song. âConspiracy of Silenceâ brings the birds into focusâthe collared flycatcherâs cascade of notes intertwines with trembling pipes, suggesting communion through attentive listening.
The eighteen-minute title piece sits at the workâs centre, opening in ambiguityâcrackles, murmurs, and clicks that dissolve into organ and Buchla tones hovering between noise and tone. In Swedish lore, songbirds were said to have a hundred tongues; here, organ and synthesizer breathe as one. Stitched from live recordings in Skovgaardsalen, Norberg kyrka, and Koncertkirken, the suite ends with the return of the everyday world.
Klingaâs music slows perception and bridges centuries. Pairing one of Swedenâs oldest organs with modular electronics, he reveals the kinship of pipe, circuit, and birdsongâreminding us that listening itself may be the origin of music.
