The music is born out of an organic cross-over of afro-beat, jazz and outr\\xe9 electronics. Expect to hear as much as electro-acoustic noise, slowly evolving soundtracks, afro-beat inspired grooves and psychedelic free jazz.  \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe album was produced by Reuben Lewis and edited by sound-artist Mark Shepherd, who assembled a day of live jamming in the studio to prepare material that would later be dissected, abstracted and re-composed into a single-take long-form improvisation and an electro-acoustic remix. Originally conceived as an LP in two chapters, side A is an unedited studio take performed without any pre-planned structure or set-list. Side B reimagines the IHTLP concept through an interconnected series of electro-acoustic pieces. \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLewis says of the music; 'I have always wanted to develop a band that could traverse any of the sound worlds I inhabit, and to go one further, bring these worlds together in a way that enables a constantly evolving dialogue through improvisation. Abstract Playgrounds is a voyeuristic glimpse into the development of the IHTLP concept and the first of many musical chapters to come.'\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e(outtakes from the)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSnake Charmers' Convention\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShithead\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e(intakes from the) Snake Charmers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDeleuzian Lawn Bowls\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eForest Song\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfro 1\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAfro 2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTime with Black Water\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRemember What We Said\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chalkys.com","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":55149702414721,"sku":"745734","price":14.98,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0056\/8043\/1219\/files\/61BcvV-P6HL._SL1500.jpg?v=1767847687","url":"https:\/\/chalkys.com\/products\/745734","provider":"Chalkys.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
