1 >> All The Darkness Has Gone To Details [Ultre] >> out now
The Ultre debut release presents structured musical pieces utilising piano,
guitar, home made instruments and electronics. Elegant, delicate, complex,
organic, bold, charming, melancholy, nervous, or violent.. We are getting a
constant stream of great (and grateful) feedback on this one.... Here is
what the reviewers think >>
The Wire > 274 says....
""The animation work of Finn McNicholas - aka Ultre - has been used on
Warp's Works & 20th Century Composers tour, and Warp's influence is
certainly in evidence in the rhythmic chassis of All the Darkness, with its
intemperate bursts of squalid rhythm counterpointed by more placid
sequences. However, what lends the album its individuality is his use of
instruments made from metal and wire, as well as slightly bashed-about
acoustic instruments such as the untuned piano that weaves unsteadily
through "Nobodies Favourite". There's a nice contrast between the
conventionally sleek, futuristic aura of the electronic components of these
pieces and a bustling, clankier DIY element suggestive of creaky doors and
busy toolsheds.""
