Airwaves: Songs From The Sentinels is released as part of the A Year In The Country project, which is a set of year-long explorations of otherly pastoralism and the undercurrents and flipsides of bucolic dreams; a wandering amongst work that draws from the further reaches of folk culture, the hidden and underlying tales of the land and where they meet and intertwine with the spectral histories, lost futures and parallel worlds of hauntology. As a project, it has included a website featuring writing, artwork and music which stems from that otherly pastoral/spectral hauntological intertwining, along- side a growing catalogue of album and book releases. The project was created in 2014 by Stephen Prince - who also wrote and recorded Airwaves: Songs From the Sentinels - and the roots of its inspiration can be found in part amongst a childhood spent in the shadow of the Cold War, discovering the fringes of science fiction and related dystopian tales at an age when he was probably too young to fully understand them, while also living amongst and next to the British countryside and overlooked edgelands.
