about

‘The sacred ribbons must be passed on, tied to something new, some person new. Too long with them and they become worn, tangled, unable to be used’

'Ends Without Redress', a new recording by Gareth Smith aka Vanishing, a further exploration of the fatal Dogger Bank Incident involving Smith’s great-grandfather George Henry Smith, and a companion release to the album ‘55°N, 5°E’.

Warfare, paranoia, entwining lives, legacy.

Brought to you in parts: 'The Moonlight Observed Parts I & II', 'Navigating Decades Parts I & II'.

The moonlight reflects upon the night of the 21st October 1904: surrender and victory so similar a stance, breached lives ghost through new worlds, no longer reaching, becoming that which surround. Decades are navigated, stoically, socially. Wealth buys positioning, opportunity to grieve. Generations find comfort in that which cannot be seen.

Undulating electronics, soaked and submerged, underwater music, equally moving and tethered to the scene. Woodwind and piano sweep around the words, glistening colours of the rising surface, clusters of sound, elegiac release.

The past can be rich and warm, can help place meaning. Do not be timid with it, do not fear it, it is baked into everything left behind. Go there, find it, explore it, conclude it.
