A Walk In The Woods With Woo
Celebrating the repress of our first Music to Watch Seeds Grow By release
🌱 Welcome Music and Plant Lover 🌱
Greetings beautiful seedling, and welcome to our Music To Watch Seeds Grow By world… or to our friends - that’s you, dear supporter - Seeds.
We have lots of news, and we’d like to share the first piece with you if we may.
Woo Repress Time!
Due to OVERWHELMING requests, we’ve decided to repress Woo’s first Seeds outing and their ode to the Sweet Pea.
There are only a few left of these now - head to our Bandcamp to grab one.
The repress comes in a special green case.
As with all Seeds-related releases, you’ll also receive a packet of Sweet Pea seeds to sow + the digital album.
Check the Seeds mix they did for us, which launched our series over on Ransom Note below.
There’s also a nice interview about the release with them here
Seeds Mix #1: A walk in the woods with Woo
A bit about the mighty Woo’s ode to Sweet Peas:
It’s 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.
“Like nature, our approach has always been quite random,” the brothers state, “ as with planting seeds the process has a purity that can bring unexpected results.”
The seeds you’ll receive with the release 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”
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.”
Let’s finish on something a bit planty from Woo:
