Tar Gui is recorded as heard. It is full of decolorization, beauty spots, open wounds, small animals, love, rashes and other qualities. It's music between man and wood. Tar Gui is Martin Kirkegaard's solo debut album. The music is recorded acoustically and without overdubs over three sessions in the first half of 2019. The album is centered around the craftsman who shapes the sounds and moods that the world naturally throws off. Furthermore, Tar Gui finds its inspiration in the curiosity that lies not only in the discovery of the guitar's own sound and hidden landscapes, but also in the limitations of the instrument. The music is based on sketches, melodies and improvisations intertwining. Tar Gui is built around the songs own sound. This makes the overall story of the record a diverse sound gallery, with each song growing out of its very own space. It is music about the tameable and the untameable, about the rooted and the dancing. And it's music about everything that disappears and never comes back - all that evaporates.
