Product Details

Peter McKerrow's decades-long devotion to a single sonic vision is the kind of patient, obsessive artistry that rarely survives the pressures of the music industry, which makes its arrival here all the more remarkable. Rooted in the remote, windswept landscapes of the Scottish archipelago and the Atlantic waters off Cornwall, these compositions exist outside any trend or moment, shaped instead by place, memory, and time.


Seelie Court - the world's premier label for rare and previously unreleased archive recordings of underground folk, rock, proto-metal, and psychedelic music presents Across the Water II. Peter McKerrow revisits the experimental electronic composition he made in 1975 after a life-altering trip to the Isle of St Kilda. He worked on the piece through the decades and here he presents the final composition - and as a companion piece a second experimental work inspired by underwater experiences near the Isles of Scilly.
