Description
Recently James Heather started to release music via Ahead Of Our Time - Coldcut's recently resurrected first label and playground for free expression/experimentation. First came Modulations: EP1, seven tracks which were written and recorded at different times and in various headspaces. Next came his debut album Stories From Far Away On Piano, a more unified conceptual piece of work. The album concept centres on Heather's interpretations of real world news stories. The pieces ebb and flow, slowly enveloping the listener in a subtly subliminal fashion.
The album is an appeal to emotion, a way of bringing the listener in, to evoke an empathetic response, this is my interpretation of stories I discovered. The stories themselves are not the focus, but the piano assimilation is, as the album is about viewpoint, opinion and perspective.
