Description
15th studio album from Ian Simmonds, following 2015’s ‘The Right Side of Kind’. Starting his musical career in the ’80s with The Sandals, Simmonds then moved on to producing as Juryman, Wiseintime and under his own name. Not fitting into one genre, Simmonds’ signature moody but poignant style is spread liberally over jazz, electronica, trip hop, the abstract and a bit of afro funk and dub creating an incredibly well rounded, eclectic sound. Highlights include the downtempo, reflective ‘Avoiding Obsolete’, where a distant tinkering piano motif frames Simmonds’ beautiful warm melodic vocals, the production is sparse, but you are drawn in greedily.
