about

This album was recorded at home during October and November 2021. I decided to put songwriting on hold for a while, focusing instead on amusing myself by making a lot of instrumentals.

And yet the album somehow turned into a meditation both on the fragility of the right to free speech and on the corrosion of political discourse that is currently happening around the world. Things are heading in a worrying direction right now. Safeguards and oversight committees are much too inconvenient for those brought up thinking they deserve to rule. The default response of those in power to people attempting to hold them accountable is becoming to silence them by any means they deem necessary. And so we sleepwalk towards totalitarianism...

about

Chris Harris Bristol, UK

I'm still trying to get the music I record to sound like the version I can hear in my head. To do this I've ended up playing every instrument I can get my hands on. These days, I'm closer to "That Sound" than I used to be, but the journey continues.
