Ecstatic Recordings welcomes The Field's Axel Willner to the fold with his debut record as HANDS - four tracks of plaintive devastation spread over forty one minutes, disintergrating synth melodies drifting over skittering percussion and whispered intonations.

Axel Willner : "The Soul Is Quick is a protest record for when you've had enough of how the world works. When you find yourself taking inspiration from human decay rather then brighter things."

Written, produced and recorded by Axel Willner between March and April 2012 at Garmonbozia Studios, Berlin.

Artwork by Sonia Alvarez, Axel Willner and Alessio Natalizia.
