HAVELOCK ‘Chamber’ EP
Release Date: 16th February 2018
Label: 20/20 LDN
Format: Digital
Cat No: 2020LDN008

Having thus far mainly featured as a guest on music released by long time supporters Ivy Lab, the Chamber E.P marks the first solo excursion for 28 year old Nick Jackson a.k.a Havelock; arriving via the same 20/20 LDN imprint that housed all of his collaborative work.

Featuring a span of BPM’s and aesthetics ranging from knocking 808’s to papal-inspired Jungle; the project makes for a relentlessly bleak and unsettling listen - featuring guest appearances from 20/20 mainstay Deft on the track “Chimes”, and Bristol-based instrumental grime producer Hi5Ghost with his remix of “Graphics”.

Born and bred in London, Havelock has been quietly honing his production for almost a decade, branching out from his initial explorations in minimal drum and bass into territory closer in complexion to noise-scene abstractions and alt-hip hop.

Having cut his teeth DJing in clubs and bars during his stints in Amsterdam and Leeds, he went on to found the Buried Audio record label, responsible for releasing music from acts who would go on to become celebrated actors in the bass music landscape. Sitting in the same lane as a small cohort of pioneering outfits such as Darkestral & Exit Records, Buried audio went onto release some of the earliest works from artists such as June Miller (Ram Records) & Nick Modern (Metalheadz/Tempa)

It was only after wrapping up Buried Audio and returning to London that the Havelock alias was born; his focus turned to producing music that encapsulated an increasingly far-reaching taste in obscure underground electronica. Drawing on influences from ambient, metal and abstract hip hop, his sound is loosely engineered by design and paints bleak landscapes with a tangible rawness and innocence.

Tracklist:
1. Graphics
2. Chamber
3. Chimes (with Deft)
4. Fiction
5. Graphics (Hi5Ghost Remix)

Havelock - "Graphics"(Hi5Ghost Remix)[2020LDN008]

Welcome to 2019. It might be the worst one for a while, so here is a mostly DAWless double A-side single, a sonic representation of what the shit hitting the fan might sound like. Unruly chaos.

Gear used, for nerds' eyes only: 
Elektron Digitakt 
Bass Station 2 
Korg Volca Kick 
Dubrek Harmonik 
TC Electronic HOF2 
NUX Time Core 2 
Yamaha THR10 

Mixcraft 8 used as the tape recorder, and a little bit of extra panning. Everything else is the Digitakt telling everyone else what to do.

Thanks for listening.

Lyrics:

Blades approach the branches 
Suffocating species that encircle 

Bar none, the hymnals ineffectual 

Treasured ringlets drape over the domain 
Painted a shade south of a damp lantern 

Drop to the bottom ring of survival instincts 

The purana cozily immortalized 
While the present skin the planet for rations 

Arisen from venom to a despondent Tenebrae

Lyrics:

Premises motion the wind and lurch seas 
All but mammals (the first underneath) 
Goaded ahead in the event 
No longer the steed ridden 
Drivel on dirt (before the purple entourage) 
The surrender of a miscarriage, awash 
Errant deities relinquish faculty 
Who, then, to teach of the supreme

Stoyan Yovchev / Оmori
20, bulgaria
// amek collective

Stoyan Yovchev started making music under the name Omori in 2016. With roots in drum and bass, he quickly expanded his sonic palette by experimenting with a plethora of genres – from lo-fi hip hop to glitch and noise. In 2018 he started performing live at various underground scene locations in Sofia. In 2019 he was one of the headliners of Radar Festival Beyond Music, Varna. Challenging the boundaries of genre definitions, Stoyan Yovchev released two tapes via Bulgarian imprint Amek Collective. Shortly after moving to London, he joined the local family of artists Index Tapes, he was only in his first year of university.

Оn April 13, 2020 Stoyan untimely left our world. A day earlier he changed this page name to ‘it doesn’t matter anymore’. He did, however, grant his family access to this account and it now serves as an archive of his music legacy and a reminder of his impulsive, emotional and bold approach to electronic music. His family decided to change back the account name to Stoyan Yovchev Omori to ensure his work is easily accessible for anybody who looks to listen to it. Tony lived to create and his work and life will always matter.
