I moved to a new town to do what i thought i wanted to do with my life. Left behind some great friends but also made some great new friends. I wrote most of these beats in the weeks following the move.

As ever, all sounds served fresh from the OP1 (and new on the menu, a light seasoning of Octatrack)

Victims Of Nostalgia

Bright Lights

Nagra202109

‘In The Constant Noise’ was recorded outside very late at night using a small hand-held recorder. On each recorded layer the sounds of wind, rustling leaves and other natural reverberations can be heard in the background. By emphasising and celebrating these imperfections, the idea of silence in a world where high noise levels are the norm is explored. The result is a set of songs that, whilst each telling their own story, are unified in a melancholic lament for the sounds that have been lost in the constant noise.

This song is heard in Chrome perfume advert by Azzaro 2017

Submarine

Known for his beautiful, aetherial vocals (akin to Sigur Rós) and lush arrangements, Cornish artist Tom Adams has performed solo concerts across the world and has featured on an NPR Tiny Desk Concert. 

‘Storm’ - the lead single from his upcoming 4th LP - is about love, loss and recognizing when change, even if it comes with heartbreak, is inevitable. The music begins with calm swells with gentle singing and guitar, then builds as the vocals, piano, and orchestral strings converge at various peaks throughout the piece.

Oora, comprised of the solo artist Federico Chiesa, is a church of analog sequencing. Using vintage analog synths, all the recordings are made from single takes without any post-editing. The music is heavily based on the sounds of the iconic roland TB-303 and TR-808, ranging from dub acid to deep minimal techno. 

Chiesa began electronic music production after being a long time guitarist and singer with bands such as Mr. Bison, and Grace and Doom. Chiesa is now focusing on electronic with a live recording approach, limiting himself with the use of selected analog synths and old school workflow to retain the imperfect power and simplicity of the human performance.

Collaboration with Tom Adams happened naturally after both artists played at Stella Polaris in Copenhagen and discovered their mutual passion for electronic music.
