Album UK 2018 on Tremolo Boy Records label
Rock
From Bill's Dreamsville website: "The Unrealist is an album of improvised guitar instrumentals issued as a download-only album on the Tremelo Boy label available through Nelson’s Bandcamp page. The Unrealist album was created between June and November 2017 from material recorded immediately after completing work on Songs For Ghosts. As he completed the track listing for the Songs For Ghosts album, Nelson realised he still had more to explore in this vein. Starting with these new "overflow" tracks, he went on to record another double album's worth of songs for the project. He then separated out the instrumental tracks, which became The Unrealist album. Assembly of the resulting album, including the recording of the final couple of tracks featured on it, was undertaken in the first two weeks of November 2017. Having a new website to experiment with, Nelson adapted his normal practice of posting news and updates to the Dreamsville Forum, preferring instead to create illustrated journal entries that he would post directly to the new site. The material was initially given a series of tentative titles, No Ghosts Here, Spooky Annexe, Singing in the Ether, and Lovely Apparitions, all signalling its links to the Songs For Ghosts project. However, once Nelson had elected to separate out the material and concentrate on completing an instrumental record, it would be re-named Wonder Street in honour of the album’s newest composition (completed on 7 November 2017). Fleetingly, Nelson considered calling the album Guitar Stories, before changing his mind a couple of days later to Lumiluxe, while also confirming its proposed track listing. Within 24 hours though, Nelson changed the title again, settling on The Unrealist. During the mastering stage one track, “Deep Blue”, was removed from the album as Nelson “felt disconnected from it in some way”, reducing The Unrealist to 15 tracks."
