New track OUT NOW!

https://mortalitytables.bandcamp.com/…/lf15-a-433-walk…

On Bandcamp only.

All proceeds from this release will go to Dementia UK

‘LF15 / A 4’33” Walk To Woburn Sands Station’ is a collaboration between myself and from Mortality Tables (Documentary Evidence – an unofficial Mute Records website), as part of the LIFEFILES series.

The idea behind the project was for me to create a response to the audio that Mat provided, which are snapshots of life, places, people and moments in time.

This track began life as a 4min 33sec recording of Mat walking to the train station in Woburn Sands. The footsteps provided the tempo of the track, and it evolved from there. It was a really enjoyable and creative collaboration.

I have known Mat Smith for many years, he is a hugely creative and talented writer, and a great friend. It was a pleasure to be a part of this project.

Delighted to announce ‘Counter Continuo (Part 1)’!

3 tracks are out NOW, the full 6-track release is out on Mute on 16/1/2024.

These tracks began their life when I was making ‘Counter Melodies’, and exist in the same world as that album in a lot of ways. But ‘Counter Continuo’ is sonically and emotionally very much its own thing.

I worked on these 6 tracks this year, and I felt more freedom and spontaneity in the production somehow. It became my mission to get these tracks released and I’m delighted to announce them now.

I am very proud of it as a collection (and as a companion piece to ‘Counter Melodies’ and ‘Counter Mixes’) and thrilled for people to finally hear it.

Full track listing:
1. Southbourne
2. Anniverse
3. Brother
4. 1 a.m.
5. Alone
6. Still Not Sleeping
