Where to begin with a figure like Simon Fisher Turner? From teenage stage and screen star to illustrious recording artist for Creation and Mute and score composer of Caravaggio, Blue, and The Epic of Everest -- via a stint with The The and collaborations with Derek Jarman, David Lynch, and Tilda Swinton -- Turner embodies a distinctly British sensibility and boundless curiosity for sound. For A Colourful Storm, discovering Deux Filles, his mysterious project with Colin Lloyd-Tucker that has since been reissued by Dark Entries, was a significant moment in shaping their identity. In August 2023, A Colourful Storm presented Simon Fisher Turner and Time is Away at Spanners, London. Performed at the tail end of Blue Now, a series of events celebrating Derek Jarman's last feature film, Blue, the recording reveals a lifetime of significant events and influences. Terre Thaemlitz's remix of Turner's Shishapangma is reworked and appears on vinyl only. Jarman is privately recorded reading "White Lies," Bertrand Russell is sampled, and Turner records his brother practicing the Great Rissington organ for their father's funeral.
