about

"Oaks Park in Southeast Portland is a strange and beautiful place. There's the brightly-colored Mausoleum Mural towering over a nature preserve, the seasonal theme park which emanates a haunted aura when vacant, the snaking Springwater Trail running alongside train tracks and industrial rust - a great pocket of the city, really. Emmet Martin, aka World Record Winner recorded Moss Rug down in that bottom using their guitar, rocks, stick, leaves, and field recordings. Have a listen, and be transported to deeply weird Portland." - Deepest Currents

PP014

Pearsoll Peak’s fourteenth release, "Moss Rug," comes from Portland-based musician and Bud Tapes-founder Emmet Martin, aka World Record Winner.

Recorded outside at the Oaks Park Nature Preserve in Southeast Portland, Moss Rug seamlessly weaves together elements of hypnotic folk, acoustic drone, extended guitar performance techniques (including the use of rocks, sticks, and leaves to alter the sound of the guitar) and field recordings to create a transportive ode to solitude and nature.

From Martin’s subdued vocals on “break the branch” to the audible crackle of the forest floor on “crunching leaves”, Moss Rug creates an intimacy with the listener mediated by the natural world, one where the alluvial foliage and instrument extend into each other.
