Kiri Variations
This album of plaintive beauty, eerie wyrd arcadian horror and childlike outsider music epitomises Clark's constant ability to flip-the-script and coherently organise an abundance of new ideas. Mysterious and morbidly beautiful pieces driven by piano, harpsichord, cello and viola, electronics and voice, are interspersed with fabulously unusual and highly original curveballs. "I want people to listen to this in the same way they would read a set of Roald Dahl short stories; bitter-sweet tales with hooks and teeth and unexpected macabre twists. Proper Witch vibes.” - Clark
