"Recommended to Matthew Herbert by Plaid, London-based Max de Wardener releases his debut album. Max has emerged with a wonderfully understated album where recordings of acoustic instruments and objects (wires & bowls) fizz and buzz before finally wrapping themselves around the sound of electricity. Each track has a story behind its making: 'Hundreds and thousands', for example, uses recordings of church organs played in an English cathedral and church. The music has all the trade-mark serenity you might expect from such a beast of an instrument. It then incorporates the percussive clicks and whirrs of a camera to shape it into something equally beautiful. 'Truly modern, progressive music' is how Matthew Herbert describes it. The album has the sparks and scratches of electronic music, the tranquillity, tenderness and space of Brian Eno's ambient work but it's all driven by rhythm·even when there isn't any." Limited stock.
