Introducing.. Jordan Busson

Stumbling across the Soundcloud page of South African born, London-based classical instrumentalist Jordan Busson, I couldn’t help but become immersed in his desolate, and as he informs me, as of yet unfinished, trio of arrangements. ‘Three Of Swords’, ‘Unearth’ and ‘Coda’ are all delicately positioned to the most convincing degree, ‘Three Of..’ opting to pierce with a sparse piano line some vague and formless whirr, ‘Unearth’ doing similar work but, crucially, by means of violin, trickling through a tremolo bass feedback in some of Busson’s most unsettling (or perhaps ‘Unearthing’) material. ‘Coda’ leaves such faltering sound-scapes relatively untouched, the occasional interruptive glitch and overpowering murmur of low-end providing a stark, filmic quality.
