Beatrice Dillon to Launch Label with Double-Single

Beatrice Dillon will release a new double-single next month. Seven Reorganisations is the first release on Dillon’s new label, HI. Originally commissioned by artist Mark Fell for Sheffield’s No Bounds Festival in 2022, the entirely acoustic composition is a departure from the distinct electronics of her last album, Workaround. Yet, to the attuned ears of Dillon’s discography, the release “feels less like a rogue turn than an evolution,” we’re told, “where the signature acoustic elements of her previous work are now embraced in their totality.” It was written and produced by Dillon and performed by UK contemporary classical sextet Explore Ensemble. The project is an exploration of W.R. Bion’s belief that “the inability to tolerate empty space limits the amount of space available.” The recordings, one studio and the other live, encourage listeners to “revel in vibrant overtones and microtonal, timbral intricacy,” we’re told. “A major shift in direction for me…exploring quieter, slowly shifting patterns within the acoustic realm of the sextet: piano, violin, viola, cello, flute, and bass clarinet,” says Dillon. “So grateful to Explore Ensemble for their delicate playing.” Tracklisting01.
