Hidden Orchestra - Night Walks

 Electronic/ Jazz : "Cinematic soundscapes with a big sound and wonderful string arrangements. Recorded with two drummers and a modern production feel. FOR FANS OF AMON TOBIN, XPLODING, BONOBO & DJ SHADOW. Vinyl: 180g; thick gatefold sleeves + thick printed inner sleeves; coloured vinyl. An intense and rewarding listening experience, “Night Walks” encompasses the energy and production techniques of studio-produced beats, but replacing synths and drum machines with natural/acoustic sounds and instruments for an emotionally potent style. Built on contrasts – experimental without losing accessibility, electronic and acoustic, complex and simple, dark and energetic whilst intricate and calm – there is a sense of journey and progression, and, in Acheson’s words, “the brooding reflections of a solitary walk through the still, restless night”. “can only be described as a beautiful noise” – BBC Introducing in Scotland (Album of the Month for September) / “a highly emotive, celluloid-inspired journey through one of the greatest films never made” 4/ 5 – The Skinny Magazine  /  “a soundscape that truly envelops you” 4/ 5 – The Sunday Express  /  “every bit as jaw-dropping as DJ Shadow’s Endtroducing” – The Daily Record  /  “a gem, a chattering, pulsating collection” 4/ 5 – Is This Music? Magazine  /  “these are lullabies primed to pounce when the clock strikes midnight” 7/10 – Clash Magazine  //  “Stunning stuff” iDJ  / “The stunning debut will blow you away” – XYZ Magazine"
