Buck Meek presents the new single "Cyclades"
Buck Meek presents the new single "Cyclades" which is the latest to be taken from his forthcoming album, Haunted Mountain.
The songs of Haunted Mountain were written in mountains: by cold springs in the Serra de Estela of Portugal, on the submerged volcano of Milos in the Cyclades, Valle Onsernone in the Swiss Alps, and the Santa Monica range where Meek now calls home – all where his new love was born. “When you are in love, it inhabits your environment, animates the inanimate, charging everything around you with a sense of meaning,” Meek says. “And not just new love; also love of many years.”
The love that colours "Cyclades" is familial, depicting a true story of Meek’s father narrowly avoiding a motorcycle collision with a herd of elk. “These are all true stories, or at least as I was told, or remember them being told,” explains Meek. “There's a thin line between history and mythology. Our lives are made of an endless myriad of unfinished stories, of every encounter of billions of people at the centre of thousands of years in each direction. The telling is secondary.”
"Cyclades" is out now. Haunted Mountain is set for release on 25 August via 4AD, and is available to pre-order.
