“Like nature, our approach has always been quite random,” Renowned duo Woo on Music To Watch Seeds Grow By

There once was a Woo on a musical spree, Who sang to Earth Angels beneath a tall tree.
With tunes of delight, they made seedlings grow, Their “Music To Watch Seeds Grow By” did glow!

The Woo danced a jig with a cucumber cane, While the Earth Angels hummed a melodious refrain.
“Seeds sprout in time!” they chirped in their glee, And the Woo clapped along, as happy as can be.

So now when you hear that harmonious tune, Think of the Woo and a sunny afternoon.
For Earth Angels and melodies make gardens thrive, And nonsense like this keeps the whole world alive!

A thoughtfully curated collection of ambient, minimalist, and new-age soundscapes designed to be the perfect soundtrack for moments of sowing these seeds, which accompany every release in quiet reflection.

Composed by the renowned duo Woo—Mark and Clive Ives — this is one of a series of five unreleased albums from their archives. The release combines soothing tones from clarinet, guitars, percussion, and electronic elements, creating the perfect soundtrack for gardeners and music lovers alike. Featuring tracks like “Golden Hours” and “Earth Angels,” this album is an ode to the slow, rewarding process of growth and new beginnings.

Accompanying each release will be a special seed insert chosen by the artist to enhance the tactile and organic experience of the music. These seeds symbolise the potential for growth and connection to the natural world, aligning with the music’s meditative and nurturing qualities.

For this release, the brothers have chosen Sweet Peas:
“To our surprise and delight, Sweet Peas can be planted in the autumn and they’ll blossom in the coming spring”

Each release will be in physical form on a recycled cassette, which will precede its digital counterpart by a few months, allowing the music to be experienced in its intended form first.

As Clive puts it: “Much like nature, music is an ever-evolving process. With this project our aim was to achieve an unpredictable organic flow that still feels harmonious.”
