Info:

Youth Isn’t Usually Associated With Wisdom, Or Depth Or Complexity For That Matter. Most 22 Year-olds Are Still Figuring Out How A Washing Machine Works But In The Case Of Howes (the Solo Project Of Manchester-based John Howes) He’s Making Electronic Music That Is Operating On Innovative And Experimental Levels One Might Expect From A Hardened Career Musician Hitting Their Stride. Having Released A More House-oriented 12” On Melodic A Couple Of Years Ago, His Debut Album Proper Is A Record That Is As Expressive As It Is Cohesive. It’s A Release That Floats Between Nocturnal Stillness And Insomniac Driven Intensity. The Shift, Howes Says, “comes From The Forced And Narrow Nature Of A Lot Of Electronic Music. Most Modern Electronic Music To Me Is Too Safe In Terms Of Ambition, Sound Design And Intention.”<br />the Limited Edition 180g Heavyweight Vinyl Includes A Download Code And Comes Housed In Reverse Board Outer Sleeve And Black Inner Bag.
