The Distance Between The Killer And The Killing [CD]

David Sylvian – The Distance Between The Killer And The Killing [CD]

The Distance Between The Killer And The Killing is a longform instrumental album by David Sylvian, released on Nanoq.

The album is one continuous instrumental piece of about 46 minutes. Sylvian built it from improvised sessions recorded between 2012 and 2025, reworking and recomposing them into a single long-form composition. Contributors include Ryuichi Sakamoto, Otomo Yoshihide, Biliana Voutchkova, Miako Klein, Jamie Drouin and Lance Austin Olson. The music is made of breath, wind instruments, voices and texture rather than songs.

The CD comes in a plastic-free gatefold sleeve with a credits insert and includes a hi-res download.
