King of the mountains

zoetrope

If you listed Jon Hopkins' “Immunity“ amongst last years best albums, you shouldn't miss out on King Of The Mountains - the new lovechild of Phil Kay, formerly of the great Working For A Nuclear Free City.

“Built largely around electronics but with its creator embellishing these artificial sounds with a variety of live instrumentation – even teaching himself saxophone in one afternoon to add extra layers. The album is filled with wonderfully interwoven structures, ranging from swelling tempestuous dance floor filler (‘Undone’) to richly textured maps of gently bustling sound (‘Stranger Things Have Happened’) and ambient secretions (‘Airstrips’).“

“Zoetrope“ will be out on Melodic Records on April 14. Check the title track below.
