{"product_id":"210000022538","title":"Hiro Kone - Silvercoat the Throng","description":"New York electronic experimentalist Nicky Mao's 4th full-length, Silvercoat the throng, emerged against the backdrop of lockdown, compelled by an intuitive directive: \"resist the urge to fill the space.\" Compositionally this translated as a simmering, shadowy energy, veiled but variable, traced in a composite of strings, synthetics, rhythm, and voice. The title alludes to a poetic notion of \"possibility, rescued from darkness,\" which aptly evokes the shape-shifting, devotional feel of these ambitious and elegant sound designs, crafted in defiance of impermanence, driven by the pursuit of becoming \"more and more articulated, differentiated.\"\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCollaborations with travis from ONO, Speaker Music, and Muqata'a further expand the album's lyrical, liminal palette, meshing elements of experimental techno, spoken word, neo-classical, and industrial noise into a fluid, encrypted dialect all it's own. Mao speaks of creative strategies of solidification and reification, encounter and transformation, pure being and punctuation - a multitude of sparks, fuses, and forking paths leading across fresh thresholds and twilit terrain. Taken as a whole, Silvercoat captures Hiro Kone at the peak of their powers, alchemizing disruption and decomposition into regenerative interior worlds: \"Within the darkness and absence is an opportunity for discovery.\"","brand":"mysite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58366226301253,"sku":"DAIS174.1","price":4.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1063\/8881\/6197\/files\/hiro-kone-music-vinyl-records-hiro-kone-silvercoat-the-throng-011586671843-dais174-1-39955024183548.jpg?v=1782311711","url":"https:\/\/midnightukvinyl.com\/products\/210000022538","provider":"MIDNIGHT GROOVE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
