Additional Information

Comments The name ‘The Red Book’ comes from the book by Karl Jung of the same name. One day early on in the recording process Rebecca (our cellist) asked me what the album was going to be called and as I glanced over I saw this book on the desk next to where she was and it popped into my head to say ‘The Red Book?’. The book is about, among other things, the way our sub-conscious interacts with and intrudes into our daily lives. I thought this fitted what we were trying to achieve with the second album quite neatly – namely, exploring musical words that are at once both familiar and strange. There is another meaning which is that the main mastered disc you end up with, the one from which all other copies will be made, is called the ‘Red Book Master’ – so somewhere at some point there will be a disc on which will be written ‘The Red Book Master – Red Book Master’…
