Debut album [ Where Edges Meet ] from British composer James Murray subtly evokes the rumble and clatter of London's industrial wastelands, leading us to its secret gardens and wide parks with crystalline, haunting melodies.

 

As a gifted multi-instrumentalist James has intelligently merged the organic and synthetic realms into delicate and daring soundscapes - all vividly evocative of sense and space.

[ Where Edges Meet ] is an intimate and ambiguous album, a wistful playground for broken breakbeats, jazz inflections, sideways dub and avant-garde electronica

James Murray is a London-based electroacoustic sound artist, producer and multi-instrumentalist. His productions weave together elements of electronica, downtempo, jazz and dub in emotive explorations of how the organic and electronic interact.

 

All at once the city and the middle of nowhere, JM's recursive themes draw hi-tech sound design, live instrumentation and lush pastoralism together in a sonic world where nothing is ever quite as it seems.

This really does sound good, I've had a few listens and after a week gave it another try in headphones lying on the bed — it felt like some old special album you have filled with your memories, associations, you feel like home listening to it. I wonder what happens to this album with time, maybe it will indeed have a special place in my discography.

 

In short — edges met successfully.
