(展开全部) 　　‘The trees were buzzing, and the grass.’ is described as an album of collaboration with contributions from percussionist Michael Anklin, voice artist Natasha Lohan and performance artist Es Morgan as well as vocal appearances from friends. From the moment you press play, Wordcolour immerses you in his world, enveloped by the sound of rustling leaves, footsteps, gong-like synths and ghostlike, sometimes haunting, vocals.
　　As you listen through, you will find the signature twinkling, magical style of Wordcolour, as it twists and turns through ambient and IDM. “In one sense the album is quite cinematic. Not in the sense that it is big or epic, but in the way it is structured. At times the music literally cuts like a camera - moving the listener from one acoustic environment to another. It indulges a fascination with the hyper-real world of Foley and film sound effects, natural ambiences, and Spielbergian film music."
　　The Wordcolour project started back in 2017, with the first output under the moniker via a Blowing Up The Workshop mix in 2019 which was named one of Pitchfork’s mixes of the year. With these ideas and sketches in mind, this album feels like a culmination of Wordcolour, marrying the two worlds he currently orbits in, between the early experimental concepts and the recent more club-focused output.
　　Named as One To Watch in 2021 by The Guardian, Wordcolour made his first appearance on the famed London label in November 2020 to great acclaim with ‘Juno Way’. The EP received support from Crack Magazine, The Guardian, DJ Mag, KEXP, Worldwide FM, FACT Magazine, and more.
　　He has since followed up with ‘Bluster’ EP, inviting The Soft Pink Truth, Djrum and DJ Python to create their own distinctive interpretations of the lead single. With a background in jazz, pop and contemporary classical, Wordcolour has also previously produced music for TV and theatre as well as released on Spanish imprint Lapsus Records with ‘Tell Me Something’. He’s one of the most exciting producers coming through the next generation of club music.
