Lyeform - Space Between Stars on Keysound Recordings

Hello all

Recently joined, love the quality of music on this forum. 

I released my debut LP on Keysound Recordings a few months ago and it's had a pretty polarising response.

 

I kinda hate writing about it myself so stealing Boomkat's review of it (mostly for the use of the word swang):

London’s Lyeform scales up his sound with widescreen scope in ‘Space Between Stars’, his debut longform release, via Dusk & Blackdown’s Keysound.

For the first three tracks you may be wondering if this is the same Keysound behind stacks of garage, grime and dubstep, as Lyeform sets his parameters with blazing Vangelis synth brass in ‘A New Uprising’, alongside the pulsating panoramic piece ‘Quanta’ and a dusty solo piano and electronics piece ‘Waking Life’ that wouldn’t sound out of place on Erased Tapes. 

But he does finally get into the swang of it with the title tune’s blend of dancehall tech-knocks and soaring synths, precipitating a darker turn of events between the cyber-noir swagger of ‘Nighthawk’, while making room for the tangy 8-bit baroque shuffler ‘Ruins’, and an epic finale with the Burial-esque melodrama, ’Cold was the Night’, and the glittering breakbeat garage allure of ‘Distant Shores.’

Dusk and Blackdown who run Keysound had a long chat with me about the album here whilst playing the LP in full (and some other music that influenced the LP): 

 

If you like this release my other work on Keysound:
