Description:From out of nowhere comes a unique collaborative album from Edvard Graham Lewis (WIRE) & Mark Spybey (ZOVIET FRANCE). Mixing lush electronic rhythms, sonic collage, ambient soundscapes and manipulated field recordings, these six compositions form an album with a strong identity. That this is such a vital and fertile partnership should come as no surprise. After all, both men have made careers out of creating confidently questing musics. Lewis with Wire, He Said, Hox, Dome etc. And Spybey with Dead Voices on Air, Beehatch, Altered Statesmen, Zoviet France and so on. This new album however, is something different again: experimental, yet tightly focused, and not averse to the groove or the sly hook. The pair met via an appearance on a podcast in November 2022, hosted by cEvin Key of Skinny Puppy. They hit it off immediately. "We did a live chat with Graham - which I think, went on for about three days" jokes Spybey. It was Spybey who first broached the idea of collaboration. "It was a bit like shy bairns get nowt: I just said 'maybe we should make something together.'" And so, with no plan other than to see what might develop, the duo began to assemble the compositions at long distance. Indeed, Lewis and Spybey only met in the real world after the album had been completed. "Mark sent half a dozen tracks in a stereo mix," says Lewis. "And I looked at the 'topography', to see where the spaces might be. So then I'd add to those areas. But then, when do you take it away? Sometimes you let it drop off a cliff, land in the shingle, and it gets washed out to sea again." The process moved at a pace. "Almost everything each of us brought, ending up being incorporated in some way." Says Spybey. "We didn't really go down any cul-de-sacs." As Lewis observes "We have such a sympathetic tone." Full of inventive sonics that draw on both men's previous work, 'Lewis/Spybey' offers up a richly detailed soundworld. Genre: Electronic / Ambient / Experimental
