The first, and only, compilation album on the Trace Recordings label, TEN sets out to showcase some very special artists, covering a wide range of musical genre's. From the delicate opening tones of Edison Woods to the Gothic Folk of Sarah June, the classical Cello of Martina Bertoni, the thoughtful songs of David Hurn and The Sleeping Years, two Mark Beazley collaborations, with Building Castles Out Of Matchsticks and in The Resistance, with Chris Roberts, the elegiac electronica of Stephen Spera, the crystaline voice and subtle electronics of Roshi ft. Pars Radio, and the enveloping deep listening drones of BLK w/BEAR, TEN cannot be easily categorised, but is an incredibly rewarding listen.
'The Gardener', by Edison Woods, is mastered by Denis Blackham, all other tracks mastered by Mark Beazley. Cover photography by Stephen Spera, cover art layout by Vincent Oliver.
