Sound In Silence is happy to announce the return of Wil Bolton, presenting his new album Stari Grad.
This is his third album on the label after the highly acclaimed, and already sold out, Whorl in 2014 and Surface Reflections in 2019.
For more than twenty years Wil Bolton has been making predominantly sound-based artworks for both music releases and installations, often enhanced with video or photography. His work has been shown in many exhibitions and festivals and has also worked on projects with video artists, choreographers and dancers.
He is co-owner of the electronic label Boltfish Recordings and has also released several albums and EPs under the moniker of Cheju. From time to time he has also collaborated with other soundlike musicians on projects like Ashlar, Le Moors, Anzio Green, The Ashes Of Piemonte, Wil & Tarl, Biotron Shelf and others.
Under his own name he has offered many releases, which gained high worldwide praises, on labels such as Home Normal, Hibernate Recordings, Eilean Rec., Dronarivm, Dauw, Fluid Audio, Time Released Sound and many others.
Stari Grad features two long-form tracks recorded during Wil Bolton’s residency at Radio Belgrade’s Electronic Studio in June 2024. Named after the Serbian capital city’s old town area where the studio is located, it features environmental sounds recorded in nearby streets during the sweltering heat of early summer alongside thick, buzzing tones patched on the studio’s massive 1970s EMS Synthi 100 synthesizer. Additional reverb was added back at the artist’s studio in East London and the final mixes were carefully mastered by George Mastrokostas (Absent Without Leave) in Athens.
Stari Grad comes in two distinct editions.
The first one is a deluxe limited edition of 50 handmade, hand-stamped and hand-numbered collectible copies. The disc of this edition includes an exclusive bonus track, not included in the other edition or the digital download. In this track, entitled Hilandarska, a throbbing Synthi 100 drone is layered with a field recording of heavy rain outside the Belgrade studio window, with further effects and synthesizer parts recorded later after Wil’s relocation to Manchester. It is packaged in a lovely, hand-tied, sewn fabric envelope, which includes a 4 panel insert sheet containing tracklist and information printed on a 290 gsm off-grey recycled cardboard and the front cover image printed on a polaroid style photo paper. It also comes bundled with a download code coupon and a Sound In Silence card.
The second one is a limited edition of 200 handmade and hand-numbered collectible copies. It is packaged in a lovely hand-stamped 127mm x 127mm 250 gsm light grey recycled cardboard envelope with the front cover image printed on a polaroid style photo paper and an insert sheet containing tracklist and information printed on a 170 gsm off-grey recycled cardboard. It also comes bundled with a download code coupon and a Sound In Silence card.
Sound In Silence is a boutique record label, focused on limited edition releases presented in collectible handmade packaging with beautiful cover designs.

The recorded seashore sounds give this work an extra organic dimension, the everyday sounds taking their place in the choir of humanity. Inventive and a little haunting whilst being totally engaging. Paul Steffan Jones
