King Midas Sound / Fennesz – Edition 1
King Midas Sound (comprised of The Bug, Roger Robinson and Kiki Hitomi) debuted in 2009 with the LP Waiting For You on Hyperdub in 2009. Now in 2015, with a move over to Ninja Tune they can announce their second album and the start of a series of collaborative projects.
Edition 1 features Austrian guitarist / electronic musician Fennesz. His 2001 album Endless Summer was a mix of tonal guitars and emotional shifts which inspired and sparked an admiration within Kevin and Roger to bring him onboard. Utilizing improvised guitar tracks, samples, and unreleased material from Fennesz’s archive, Edition 1 took shape within the KMS framework. In the wake of Kevin Martin’s last Bug album Angels & Devils, he wanted to create a record focused on kaleidoscopic sonic beauty. Edition 2 through 4 to follow, with collaborators kept under wraps, each one to be a genre-stretching and boundary-pushing surprise, packaged with a conceptual continuity.
Silver foiled and HD laminated 12″ sleeve, design by Optigram. Released on September 18 on Ninja Tune.
