HEAVENS FULL OF STATIC

Heavens Full Of Static is an album that explores themes of absence, industry and lost futures through the recent closures of Tata Steel's coal-powered steelworks in Port Talbot, South Wales.

Living in the next town over in Neath, for most of his life, the steelworks were a visual landmark throughout Kieran's childhood and early teens from visits to Aberavon Beach, where the tall Tata docks were as much a part of the coastal landscape as the sea.

​

Through field recordings, granular synthesis, electronic and orchestral textures, Heavens Full Of Static explores the event of this closure, reflecting on place, identity and how the past, present and future intertwine.
