Messages from the Resonator is a collaboration with psydub producer Globular, written between 2017 and 2019. The album contains psydub, psybreaks, and psybient elements with lots of acoustic instrumentation and a mixture of analogue and digital synthesis.
We began working on the album in summer 2017 after finishing a couple of one-off tracks, including 'Life Sauce' which was an exclusive track for Globular's Patreon supporters. For the next two years we met on a Friday, gradually working our way from a single release to an EP, and then a full LP. During this time we were also reading and discussing lots of sci-fi in the form of books, comics, films, and TV series.
The album was also inspired by previous psychedelic collaborations and one-offs with a particularly warm, analogue sound. Examples include Mystery of the Yeti Parts 1 & 2, Celtic Cross' Hicksville, Ott and Hallucinogen's Hallucinogen in Dub, Warp Technique's Make Animals Happy, and Dub Trees' Nature Never Betrayed the Heart That Loved Her. We hope that listeners will enjoy it as another entry in this list of strange collaborative curios...
