Wilson Tanner returns to dry land with Legends, a wine-soaked agricultural fantasy made among the grapevines at Manon Farm in South Australia. Where their earlier works settled int o the sun-struck torpor of a suburban Perth backyard (69) or drifted off-course on a riverboat on Port Phillip Bay (ii), Legends trades salt air for vineyard sweat, the scrape of boots on dry earth, and workers’ radios humming with the summer test cricket season.Through this agricultural haze, an image of a working vineyard emerges - ducks, dogs, and plovers intrude; tractors and quads fly by; stainless steel gleams at the edges. Recorded without mains power, the Manon demos overflow with farmyard ingenuity. Wind, brass, balalaika, balloon, pipe, and synth are trained onto the staff with wire, tape, and string.A caricature of Australian viticulture, Legends is packed to the horns with the mythology and manure of natural wine. Swigging and belching in camaraderie, Wilson Tanner presses their surroundings into something raw and unfiltered, letting bum notes, leftovers, and sediment linger in the bottle. A cornucopia of biodynamic sounds.1. Cherry2. Blush3. Grasshopper4. Brown5. Bubbles6. Old Vine7. Old Vine8. Summer Rot9. Hogshead10. Legends11. Botrytis12. Daddles Show more
