Wyndham Earl
Epoch
Producer Wyndham Earl (Khruangbin, ex-Bonobo band, Rokurokubi) releases his debut LP. A mood-driven soundtrack and
psychedelic trip through dusty, downbeat, cosmic compositions, that bridge the synaptic gaps between hip hop, prog rock,
jazz and everything in between. Samples, analogue synths, fuzz guitars, beats and breaks orchestrated around an array of
rustic, homemade, traditional and world instruments played by Wyndham Earl and friends. The album bursts forth from the
speakers with opener 'Enter The Behemoth' with its waves of fuzz and prog-hop instrumentation. The listener is then
lead through a vast audio topography; landscapes of jazz grooves and '70s soundtracks give way to waves of shoe-gazing
feedback and kosmische-drones. Side one culminates in the cinematic 'Night Of The Hunter' which glides through David
Axelrod-style orchestral swells peppered with rhythmic samples. Each piece of music on 'Epoch' moves through different
sections, ending in different places from where the music began... a musical maze that keeps the listener guessing as to
where the sonic journey will take them! The album ends with the more up-beat soul of 'Crossing Bridges' with its summery
groove, a simple thumb-piano motif underpinning jazz guitar licks and gentle vocals, the only track to feature vocals
with the hopeful refrain "I wanna live, in the sunshine"!
