Throughout their artistic career, ff8282’s output has shifted across various genres, though always returning to the home they created within ambient music.

'a thin membrane between her hands' stands as a precise and distinguished culmination of this artistic journey. Written and recorded largely across the span of 12 months, ATMBHH developed across various releases and locations. Sessions of frustration often resulted in additions to heavily distorted and mangled pieces like ‘resolut’ and but to the censored, an emerging method of creation for April, as previously the central need of the project was served before inclusions of the creators emotional state.

Across the album there is a strong sentiment of apathy and loss, exposing sensitive suggestions to the internal world of ff8282.

The music for each piece began as vague sketches that were elaborated and bought out through placing new instruments beside them. Some tracks continue April’s inclusion of string arrangements, while others feature found sounds and musical elements created through granular synthesis and other convoluted methods.

Recording was completed in isolation: the first person to hear the demos that would evolve to ATMBHH was John from 4000 Records. The inclusion of another person during the creative process was a first for ff8282, though this new step for the artist was one that was welcomed greatly as both parties shared a mutual love for championing all sides of the musical realm.

“This album was probably the most difficult to make. After completing Calling a Wolf, I found myself asking, “Do I even need to do anything more?”. I told myself I wouldn’t release these pieces, that they were too raw and strangely incomplete for listeners to find any redeeming or identifying qualities in them. Everything I created seemed oddly empty, they had this effect of lending themselves to whatever thoughts were crossing my mind. It was a weird feeling as most of my music up to this point demanded to be at the forefront of everything. I guess that’s what this album is about; the fleetingness of everything, not just the moments and music that talk to you, but the ones that listen.” - April
