'Loud Object' is the second solo release from artist Billy Steiger, following his self released 'Recordings, Drawings And Photographs From In And Around Frîdd Newydd' in 2016. Both a visual artist and a musician, Steiger's 'Loud Object' plays as a two sided experiment in markmarking and sound, as a kind of writing by ear - metallic, brushed, wooden - lines imprinted and pressed circular. 'Loud Object' began as six sides of violin improvisations, four of them abandoned and the last of them added to or processed usings samplers in moments Steiger calls 'wells' - gaps or dips in the recording which could be filled or poured into. The process of filling up and taking away, of repeating and multiplying, of building tension between the finite and the lost - all wrestle with actualisation. Which line will be drawn? In the liner notes for the LP, Evie Scarlett Ward writes, "The record holds loss." Though the lines are fixed, its contents are fluid - forty minutes filled in and manipulated, before time moves on.
