Spinner
Sunday, March 22nd, 2009 Derek Jarman final testament as a film-maker was the film Glitterbug made for the Arena slot on BBC Two, and broadcast shortly after Jarman’s death. Compiled and edited from many hours of super 8 footage shot with friends and companions throughout his career it is a moving collage of memories, people and moments lost in time, accompanied by a specially commissioned soundtrack from Brian Eno. His composition for Derek Jarman’s Glitterbug soundtrack was reapproached by Jah Wobble and released as Spinner in October ’95.
Jah Wobble’s role is mostly supplying the low end and ex-Can drummer Jaki Liebeziet adding some groove to this ambient” music for films” journey. This is Bellish piece called “Garden recalled”. ( This is my portrait of Derek Jarman )
