Oceanima LILA लीला: "Deep Ground' is where Purl found its foundations, in the misty forests, gloomy dusks and shimmering dawns of my youth.Continuing from the debut EP 'Ground', a work completed in 2004 and released four years later, 'Deep Ground' furthers its excavation into the soil from which we all rise.A few chapters were unveiled between them – the sequence of release rarely correspond to the sequence of creation (especially not in my early days of sending burned CD demos across oceans).Purl's first full-length album 'Cosimo di Rondò' is composed of material from the very beginnings of the saga (before 'Ground') with its innocent, IDM-ish takes on aspects of the story of a boy who climbed a tree and never set foot on the soil again.The second full-length album followed soon after 'Återfunnen Klarhet', an EP than leans into more agonising aural and emotional territory intertwined with the ethereal shimmer that is never absent from Purl. And then; 'A Quiet Awakening', a fully ambient emanation composed of material created years after 'Deep Ground' was already completed, patiently waiting for its season to arrive.And so it did, as Purl's third full-length album, with a sound and aura that has continued to echo across most of the now 58 (!) releases to emerge from this first musical guise of mine.I will forever be grateful to Jamie McCue for making a home for Purl on Silent Season. There couldn't have been a better one for these misty, shimmery dubs and drones. Jamie has always been deeply supportive, and graciously let me reissue the albums he helped to nurture and grow into the tall trees they eventually became.And so, to everyone who has wished, either in quiet, or by reaching out to me over the years, to experience 'Deep Ground' on vinyl (which really is the format this album truly belongs on): your wish has now been granted, as these expansive tracks presently extend across 3 glorious black vinyl discs. This long-time dream was made a reality thanks a fan of Purl, who I am endlessly grateful to for supporting the funding of this press, the most expensive project thus far for my label. Therefore, help me to repay this kind soul by offering what we must ask to recover the costs, and spread the word about the release to any and all who might be interested in acquiring an artefact that will only be available once in their lifetime.
