MURRAY, JAMES - KILLING GHOSTS (CD)


"We came across the work of James Murray through his excellent Slowcraft Records label. In 2012 he released what was to become a bit of a seminal work that year in the highly praised 'Floods'. He has since released superb records on a number of friends' labels such as Hibernate, Eilean, VoxxoV, as well as a recent return to the Ultimae label. James' work typically blurs the line between deep electronics and textured ambience. Yet in 'Killing Ghosts', James presents a truly perfect melding of exquisite sub-bass melodies under the surface of playful tones and fractured rhythms. The album itself has a feel of slow change and evolution as it journeys from the melodiously open electronica of 'Footsteps' and slowly down the rabbit hole as it waves us out with tracks such as 'Allways' and 'Living Ghosts'. Such a combination of melody and careful design takes a huge amount of skill, care, and patience, and we are so happy we have finally been able to all come together to release what is quite simply a genuine highlight in our eight years of existence as a label."
