‘I’ll Never be Found’, with Spoken word by Chanelle Marzouk

The initial seed of inspiration emerged from a improv jam session with Daniel McDermott when he came to visit back in 2016. I built on that idea by layering the bassline with 3 slightly different arpeggios. The slightly different rhythms of the basslines was a accident but I liked it so much I did not change it. At times causes the bass to sound like it is conflict with itself. My friend Chanelle Marzouk wrote and performed the spoken word part. I effected her voice with a formant filter to make it sound darker, robotic and masculine. I also recorded my acoustic duo partner Francis Moore Colyer playing the violin and put a lot of time-stretching effects on it which formed a spacious and organic pad sound. There is also some finger clicks, djembe, handclaps and whale song in there too. My process with electronic music is to effect the organic sounds to make them sound electronic and give the electronic parts enough modulation and subtle variations as an instrumentalist would so they sound organic in origin. The result is a bio-mechanical, mesh of organic and electronic sounds.

Glitchy electronic music production meets Classical guitar in this experimental contemporary arrangement of 'Study in B minor' by Fernando Sor (1778 – 1839).

This is the first single from new record label and music collective Aberration Records. 

Produced by Celsey in lockdown, he enlisted the help of Classical guitarist Damien Kelly and flutist Jessica Kelly from New York Redbrick Duo. Piano by composer and producer Daniel McDermott (UK) which he composed himself. Francis Moore-Colyer (Scotland) contributed violin which was also self-composed.
