{"product_id":"sings-again","title":"Sings Again","description":"\u003cp\u003eWill's Songs Of Beginning \u0026amp; Belonging was one of our favourite albums of last year and Sings Again is just as magical. After starting the decade with a pair of largely instrumental albums, Samson… sings again.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe familiar collection of old tape machines that have characterised much of Samson’s sound remain (with a 1971 Seinnheiser microphone for the vocals), firmly rooting ‘Sings Again’ in an organic sonic landscape of electronic and acoustic influences.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTaking inspiration from the early works of Bjork, Four Tet and Efterklang, much of the album was built upon recording and then sampling organic sounds such as twigs, rocks and paintbrushes to create percussion. An empty glass bottle was transformed into the otherworldly organ on raw opener ‘0333AM, and his own voice became the moody synth sound on the sparse electronica of ‘Darabuka.’ Elsewhere, the hypnotic, emotionally resonant ‘Time Used To Feel Like’ and grandiose album finale ‘Julian’s Rocks’ offer a raw and direct insight into the most vulnerable parts of himself – a long-established artist beginning again.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Human Chorus","offers":[{"title":"LP Record","offer_id":54174627234134,"sku":"MRM-05511","price":22.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1000\/6088\/9430\/files\/a3327225518_1x1_700.avif?v=1781262212","url":"https:\/\/monorailmusic.com\/products\/sings-again","provider":"Monorail Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
