Cousin





















@revillegreville When the next warm bowl of noodle soup arrives on your table, how long will you let it sit before you dive in? 🍜

We are pleased to announce @h.u.g.h.b & @secondcousin_ joining hands on this forthcoming LP as Tunnel Dancers. The album shines a light on their serene side, originally made to accompany an exhibition of works by painter, @maxberry, entitled ‘Energy is Residual’ (2021).

Expect to see this knocking about stores and on the web sometime early January on @madhabitatrecordings. Pre-orders are now up on the Mad Habitat Bandcamp for those that enjoy the sounds. Have a nice day, enjoy and as always, eternal gratitude for the support.

Love Cousin, Hugh B & Greville

Energy Is Residual
Tunnel Dancers

I first saw Hugh and Jackson play together at Good God’s ‘Soft Future Piano Bar’ at the Sydney Opera House in 2017. That year was a fruitful year for the two as artists and for the Sydney music community in general. I remember that all of us, along with Greville and Brad, hosted a DIY party in a tunnel under a highway somewhere near Sydney Airport. Is that the same tunnel that Tunnel Dancers derived their name from?

7 years after that first meeting at the Sydney Opera House, Hugh and Jackson have released an album. Listening to these songs there is an audible patience and understanding between two musicians. They probably could have released something else a long time ago, but chose to wait - instead enjoying bowls of laksa on their lunch breaks and sharing long, quiet conversations at The Babylon Sauna & Spa.

When the next warm bowl of noodle soup arrives on your table, how long will you let it sit before you dive in? Soup first or noodle first? If you learn from these songs, perhaps you will know to first observe the whole bowl. Observing in this way, the moment settles and hovers and remains for much longer than a moment.
