CollaSeq looks like .. .. .. a masterpiece !

Channelling an array of fervent interests in many genres through different mediums (Film, Music, Sound Art and more), Kinn - the brooding-electronics project of London based artist Freddy Lomas - and his guests use original soundscapes and compositions to weave together an original concept for each month's show.

In this show, Mark Leckey entrusts Kinn with re-contextualising several of the Turner Prize-winning artist’s works from 1999-2021. From his recent commission at the Tate Britain, O’Magic Power of Bleakness (2019) which was released on vinyl by Boomkat earlier this year, to his greatly influential Dream English Kid, 1964 - 1999 AD (2015) and Fiorucci Made Me Hardcore (1999).

Providing Kinn with access to his archive, Kinn began extracting the audio from his films, re-harmonising and sampling moments that possessed “musical potential” or "evocative phrasing" and transforming them into instruments which he then wrote the album with, delving into the contemporary artist’s conceptual framework as inspiration for the music. The result is Mark Leckey’s career-spanning vision translated into the format of music, his favoured themes of nostalgia, dread and anxiety are exaggerated and punctuated by bold and articulate musical expression, providing an emotionally rich auditory journey which fans of both artist’s works will recognise and love. Resonance Extra premiers this collaborative work as more of an album transmission akin to the early days of John Peel Sessions rather than a radio DJ mix.

Kinn describes the work as “sitting firmly in the middle of my last record (Anamnesis Landscape, released on First Light Records last year) and where I am moving forward with my sound, a schism of classic instrumentation and harmony being enhanced by contemporary sound design, Albini-fan-boy recording techniques and studio wizardry”.

Also features additional instrumentation by Will Langstone (Cello) & Louis Giannamore (Percussion).
