Blank Banshee is one of my favourite electronic music producers. An aspect I really appreciate in their compositions is that they edit and manipulate every sound in every phrase down to the finest detail. You rarely hear the same motif repeat in an identical fashion. My concept for this cover was to strip all that way, leaving only the most basic possible harmony that exists within the highly produced original piece.

On Tralfamadore

This is an original composition made using the sounds of Irish Bronze Age instruments that imagines what music could have been made by the many horns, trumpets and crotals discovered in the Dowris hoard, the largest single discovery of bronze artefacts in Ireland.

“I believe in music without boundaries. Music should be inclusive, not exclusive. We should use sounds from everywhere to create a universal vibe. People who love music know the best music is created without boundaries and limitations.” - Thomas Gobena

Tommy T is an Ethiopian musician based in the USA. His album 'The Prester John Sessions' draws on traditional music from all over his home country, fusing those sounds with American jazz and funk. I love this album because of the incredible bass groove that lays the foundation for many of the songs, and also for the diversity of rhythmic figures and sonic qualities that originate from a wide variety of musical traditions. The repetitive but exciting nature of a piece like 'Brothers' makes it a wonderful tune to jam on.
