I made this song in an afternoon sometime in late 2001. It went on to become one of my biggest songs from my days at Sender Records. It also started my connection with James and Border Community when he licensed it for his Balance CD. I had a very primitive studio set up in the apartment I was sharing with Ian Worang, who I was also making music with under the name Uncut. Everything was recorded in one take, straight to DAT. My Jomox Xbase09 acted as the sequencer and provided drum sounds along with a MAM ADX1. The strings are from a Yamaha SU10 (toy) sampler. The bass is from a (broken)Solton Programmer 24. The two other synth sounds are from a Prophet 600 and a Sidstation.

For his latest release, Jake has taken two of his biggest live tracks from recent months. Recorded in single takes, with minimal post production, "Poble Sec" and "Manso" are more or less live recordings. The result is some very spontaneous technology music from the heart.

Jake Fairley aka Fairmont is an electronic music producer, live performer and DJ from Toronto, Canada. He began his career in the early 2000s making records under his own name for labels such as Kompakt, Sender and Cocoon. However, it was his 2005 smash-hit Gazebo under his Fairmont pseudonym that solidified him as a heavyweight in the global underground scene. Released on James Holden's Border Community label, Gazebo sold 20,000 vinyl copies and made Fairmont a household name. Since Gazebo Fairmont has released 2 albums and several EPs. Recent releases such as Carthage (MFRR 2016) Shadows Of Mine (Suara 2017) and Brothers Keeper (Bedrock 2018) have been big club hits, getting played by such DJs as Maceo Plex, John Digweed, Sasha, Dixon etc.
