January Can't Last forever is the latest of Christopher Nosnibor's ambient noise recordings, that accompany some of his writings, Not his reviews for this website mind, but the words he's put out on his own Clinicality press and other places. The words that accompany this release on Mortality Tables reflect on how deeply the January blues hit him, since his wife died of Cancer in the middle of one recent January at just 44 years old. This piece is part of The Impermanence Project.
January Can't Last forever is a reflection of the winter blues Christopher Nosbinor feels so deeply, it opens with an jackhammer style noise that just doesn't let up, the fact it is a recording of dripping water on his window sill makes clear how much of a torture it would have been to have this noise nonstop until the weather dried up.

Next to ambient noises sounding like they are recorded outside, the odd bit of birdsong and that insistent noise added too, by the sounds of what could be cement mixers and scraping machinery, the odd bass thump disrupting any line of thought you may have had, that jackhammer just won't let up, pile driven into the darkest corners of your January despair that makes 23 minutes seem like several hours.
