After 144 - Arkiv

Arkiv 17 - Hum Hum Studies


Arkiv 17 - Hum Hum Studies - two pieces from my 2013 ‘Hum Hum’ experiments that were eight pieces in all - in a box marked ‘Fools’ and locked deeply in the vaults and there they must stay as of mostly little interest. Two pieces though did interest me as having something to say in their subtle instabilities - the versions A3 and A4 that are markedly different.

They are just studies that I now take ownership of publicly as - Rh Arkiv works - Connoting Catalogued, Acknowledged but un-numbered works.

The name comes from Jethrow Tull’s live album ‘Bursting Out’ - where after a life changing flute solo Ian Anderson shouts ‘Hum Hum’ before a final cadence in the same rhythm. It caught my soul.


At the end of my work, I am closing down my five Genres or Tranches. There remained though some lost pieces that needed to be included. So I felt each Genre should have an Arkiv of its own. Three of my five Genres needed such a space - hence Dm [Drum music] - Phm [Phase music] and Em [electronic music] have three, one and two albums respectively - to be placed after the Album 144 Summing for an end - set ‘on a shelf’ as it were - as kind of a last hurrah for those said Genres - which have served their purpose now. I delight in that German Spelling.

For my 113th Album I created a box of 14 Discs [by convention] of Arkiv pieces - with a yellow DCM cover. This is my central published Archive. So now at the very end of my work following all of the above there are Six Yellow jacketed Arkiv Discs, that number off from my Box of Delights - Hence 15 - 20, to be consistent with he 14 discs in the Box of Delights.


- Arkiv structure -

[] Album 113 - Arkiv - A Box of Delights (14 discs)


[] Album 144 - Summing for an end - Box A - C (9 discs)


[] Dm Arkiv 1 - Seven Early Studies

[] Dm Arkiv 2 - Seven Inventions for Mixed Percussion

[] Dm Arkiv 3 - Sometime Live (4 Discs)

[] Phm Arkiv 1 - Fonejackker

[] Em Arkiv 1 - What number added to one

[] Em Arkiv 2 - Electra Version B


[] Arkiv 15 - Perpetuum Mobile Live

[] Arkiv 16 - One Afternoon in April

[] Arkiv 17 - Ho Hum Studies

[] Arkiv 18 - Julian and Camilla - Close now

[] Arkiv 19 - Julian and Maria

[] Arkiv 20 - Day Floressent


So on this ‘shelf’ of my works, as it were : as my British Library Edition - we will have my 143 albums - the five working Genres though the five Chronological Groups including the Arkiv Box at 113. Then as Album 144 we have the 3 boxes ‘Summing for an end’. Following that are six blue jacketed Arkiv albums - the Dm, Phm and the Em Arkiv and 6 yellow jacketed Arkiv albums. Toping off all that are my 21 Collaborations and all their albums - indexed A - U. And that is my life. What anybody will ever make of it I can’t say - suffice to say it is.
