Mimesis is a new recording project featuring the poetic words and voice of one of Australia's most prominent singer/song writers, Steve Kilbey (The Church) and the stunning complex ambient music of Melbourne based producer Simon Polinski (Hesius Dome/ Ornament) along with Colin Berwick (Big Country), David Abiuso (My Friend the Chocolate Cake/Victorian State Orchestra) and guest musicians, Geoffrey Hales (Rip Van Hippy), Ollie Olsen & John Kilbey mimesis is finally finished a album of atmospheres dark beautiful music words from dreams ebbing flowing receding washing coming on again stronger stranger music so full of sound hidden things things fizzing and squirming falling and shivering distant contraltos wailing pianos crashing thru icy surfaces double bass deep in the earth the stories like life that dont lead anywhere you think all things loop all opposites reconciled and drowned in each other black n white become pains grey (thats a painting pun) anyway mimesis art imitating life its fucking brilliant and if any smarmy little bastard gives it a slightly badde review i'll be donning my bricklayer gear and coming round yer house and bricking yer fucking door up!
