Shipwrecks by Hoskin and Clark

Описание: Clark's experiment film was shown in October 2025.
The music was created by Hoskin and Clark.The overall sonic palette here is a brooding, confrontational chaos: exploratory and unscripted, but laced with a nautical, elegiac undercurrent—think shipwrecks as metaphors for fractured psyches adrift in emotional tempests. Instrumentation leans sparse and tactile, with "found objects" (like the titular fence) adding percussive scrapes and resonant clangs that evoke creaking hulls or distant waves. Smartphone apps introduce subtle digital glitches and ambient washes, blending organic grit (trumpet breaths, bass throbs) with lo-fi electronics. Rhythms pulse unevenly—cymbal shimmers giving way to bass-driven lurches—while trumpet and guitar weave mournful, reverb-soaked lines that flirt with melody before splintering into dissonance. Vocals, if present, seem implied through abstract wails or processed hums rather than overt lyrics, prioritizing mood over structure. It's less a barrage of vignettes and more a slow-unfurling odyssey: tension builds in silences, erupts in noisy catharses, then recedes into haunting fades. Influences whisper of maritime folk (echoes of sea shanties warped through free jazz) meets post-rock desolation (à la Godspeed You! Black Emperor), all filtered through the duo's punky immediacy. The lockdown origin infuses it with a claustrophobic intimacy—sounds that feel captured in a single room, yet vast as an ocean.

In sum, Shipwrecks refines Hoskin & Clark's alchemy into a more cohesive, thematic beast—still thrillingly raw and unpredictable, but with a storytelling arc that rewards full immersion. It's music of endurance and elegy, where every creak and wail charts inner wrecks amid outer storms. Priced at €5 (or more) for digital download in high-res formats, it's streamable via the Bandcamp app—dive in loud, perhaps with headphones to catch those intimate lockdown whispers.
