  • Record/Vinyl + Digital Album

    Rural is the first release in the Continuous Tone series of sound works by visual artists. Each project is issued as a one-off heavy pressing 12-inch vinyl record with carefully designed packaging and specially commissioned sleeve notes inserted as an 10-page illustrated information booklet.

    David Blamey's work encompasses several activities that overlap to form a multidimensional practice that eludes conventional categorisation. To this end, his projects are positioned consciously within a range of public situations, both inside and beyond the art gallery. For over 30 years he has travelled and carried out research in India. In 2017 his film 'Rice' was selected for the Mumbai International Film Festival before being screened worldwide at venues including: the Whitechapel Gallery, London (2019), the Workers Unite Film Festival, NYC (2019) and the Rome Agri Culture film Festival, where it was awarded best world film (2019). In recent years he has been drawn to the intangible materiality of sound. He established the Continuous Tone online platform for artists working with sound in 2019. The Wire described his 'O.K.' cassette release for My Dance the Skull’s Voice Studies series as ‘something quite strange, creepy and good’.
