{"product_id":"5060121302488","title":"U: Archenfield (Vinyl LP)","description":"Autodidactic musicologist and sample collagist U turned his archival eye on the melting pot of '80s post-punk with his debut 'Life Isn't A Fountain?' EP for Lex. He follows up with an experimental exploration of regional identity with ARCHENFIELD, a deeply personal collection of ambient music and found sound that examines the relationship between geographical space and aural histories.To construct this record U mined a wealth of recorded material relevant to the area. With a nod to traditional music, he takes samples from these records and creates beautifully atmospheric sound pieces that are often mixed with painstakingly researched snippets to create a stirring reflection on local history and broader themes of how we interact, or even fail to interact, with English folklore today. Pressed on 180g vinyl, the album comes with a 24-page visual companion that expands on it's themes and folk stories through imagery and narrative, echoing the album's soundscape.
