BASIL KIRCHIN - ABSTRACTIONS OF THE INDUSTRIAL NORTH

This is music from one of Basil Kirchin's most creative periods. Basil had finished his world tour of weird discovery, and came back to the UK to make, in his words, music for imaginary films. This is basically library music but lead to quite a few original film compositions.

The music here is Basil's work for the De Wolfe library, all from the 1966 period. Although you will imagine the music to be a little later, it's just that Basil is always a little ahead of his time.

The complete album Abstractions Of The Industrial North is on this recording, and Trunk have added a selection of recordings from other rare Kirchin, Jack Nathan and John Coleman productions, including The Wild One, Don't Lose Your Cool, Town Beat and finally Mind On The Run.
