The musical album Destroying a Living by Powtes explores the 17th-century historical resistance to land enclosure and the drainage of the English Fens, a region that existed as an unmapped, wild marshland prior to reclamation. Originating as a series of solo acoustic ballads composed for guitar and voice by Gus while residing in rural Chile, the material underwent a three-year evolution. The members of Powtes expanded these foundational pieces through collective improvisation, shaping a rich sonic narrative.
Recorded in home environments across three locations in Newcastle's West End, the production heavily utilizes audio collage, overdubbing, and resampling techniques. By blending traditional British folk song structures with experimental lo-fi recording methods and improvisation, the album draws on historical folk song forms to examine contemporary socio-political issues and envision more equitable forms of social organization.
