Description
After the success of 2014s Alium, Submotion Orchestra
raise the bar yet again with their new album, Colour Theory.
Renowned for their stunning live performances, for smoky
jazz, skittering live percussion and swooping synths (Mojo),
the band have this time taken a conscious decision to focus
their energy and attention on to their production, shaping a
record of immense poise and epic scope, where attention to
detail and shape has resulted in a new dynamism and
contemporary sheen. As producer Dom Ruckspin puts it,
we wanted to go somewhere radically different. While
Colour Theory is indeed radically different, it also stays true
to what made Submotion Orchestra so exciting to begin
with. A slice of broken-house groove dripping with melancholy
and post-club longing, it shows the confidence and style the
group have in abundance. Collaborations include Billy
Boothroyd, Andrew Ashong, sometime Chase & Status
collaborator Ed Thomas , Still and Catching Flies. This is a
group which has now found the perfect balance between
the chops of their seven members as individual musicians
and the needs of the collective to shape this into taut,
brilliant, warm and elegant music.
