This LP was started in Brighton (December 2006) and developed and finished in London (July 2008). For some time before I began work on the record and throughout the process of making it I was resurrecting my interest in electronic music of all types, and a desire to move away from the organic sounds of traditional, easily recognisably instruments used on my previous album and into more electronic and harder to place sounds developed. I never wanted to make the same record twice. As my surroundings, listening habits and personality have changed so has the sound of the music that I make. The sound of the album can be described as a mixture of Hip Hop, Dubstep, Ambient and ‘electronic music’. The record is darker, harder, faster and more tenuous in the array of sounds used than my previous work. That said, perhaps the most important qualities of my own music for me is the way it creates an emotive atmosphere. I hope that I haven’t lost any of that. I don’t think I have but then it’s all subjective isn’t it.

What Else There Is Snippet

衝撃デビュー作『Amongst Strangers』に続く、ブライトン出身のビート・メイカー/プロデューサーMr Cooper待望のセカンド。このアルバムは2006年12月にブライトンで始まり、試行錯誤を重ね、2008年7月にロンドンで完成した。制作する前に全てのエレクロニック・ミュージックに対する思いを呼び戻すと同時に、トラディショナルなオーガニック・サウンドから離れたいという願望を抱く。決して前アルバムと同じスタイルに陥る事無く、周りの環境と自らの変化、聴く音楽の幅を拡げる事で新たな世界観を浮かび上がらせた。そのサウンドはヒップホップ、ダブステップ、アンビエント、そして「エレクトロニック・ミュージック」の融合型と銘打たれるだろう。
