about

I’m the one and only Pollinator

“I confess” as Dave Wakeling sang, I know very little about Pollinators, but I do consider myself as a low-level Twitcher, nothing to serious but I reckon I can identify a few species from afar with a relatively decent pair of field glasses. I also am or was the proud owner of a nice little posse of Goldfinch who would visit my garden and queue up patiently on the washing line for their turn on the bird feeders. I do have an interest in wildlife and nature and I am at one with my inner David Bellamy, so when I received the latest edition of Moolakii Club Printed media “Episode 6 – Pollinator” in all its technicolour glory it sent me into a rabbit hole digging frenzy to educate myself on all things Pollinator.

Pollinators play a critical role in the food production system, they help carry pollen from the Stamen to the Stigma, the male and female part of a flower. There are various types of pollinators Bees, Butterflies, Moths, wasps and flies to name a few.

It is estimated that due the decline of these Pollinators there are 500, 000 early deaths in humans due to reduced supply of healthy foods. The Pollinators are required to pollinate crops such as nuts, vegetables, fruits and wild plants.

The latest album from Loopatronica “Pollinator” to be released on the 7th July is a charity release to support the Cheshire Wildlife Trust’s Rewilding Project to restore meadow habitats. Prior to that album release Episode 6 of the Printed Media gives you a lovely taster of things to come on the album in CD, cassette and download format “Pollinator: demo and rejected tracks” two demo tracks and two unnamed tracks.

With images of rolling sweet smelling summer meadows, water colour washed blue skies, the background noise of natures own soundtrack, the birds and the bees, the opening piano keys on “Pollinator 2 – demo” absorb you just as Mike Oldfields 1973 masterpiece Tubular Bells, probably most recognisable as part of the Exorcist soundtrack.
“Pollinator 4 – Demo” is a teasing mix of synths, then we are straight into the tingling beats of the first unnamed tracks.

The last unnamed track is like being in a sonic wind tunnel of whirling electronica, chewing you up and unapologetically spitting you out to where you find yourself back in amongst the summer meadows.

This is not so much of a review more of an environmental cry for help, if this album/project can raise awareness of the Pollinator Crisis and at the same time educate your mind and stimulate your eardrums then Loopatronica and Moolakii Club Audio Interface’s job is done, for episode 6 at least.
