And so we’re at the end. What started as a one off ‘EP’ has turned into a three-release album. Like a new Star Wars trilogy without the filler bits.
All the downtempo thrills remain, but this time with a new angle.
“I wanted to do ‘lush” said ASMC lead composer, Graeme Worsfold “I’d produced a number of different tracks for this one, but I really wanted to lean into the shiny, the big synths of the 80’s right through to the end of the 90’s. So, on this one I went less horns and dry drums and dialled up the Solina’s, the Moogs and the Junos”
“Style-wise, we’re still in the glitchy pockets of Boards of Canada and Autechre, but I inadvertently dived off to visit late 80’s Bryan Ferry/Roxy sophisti-pop with ‘Eva’ then back on track for an experiment in Moon Safari sound reconstruction with ‘Kite Rocket Whatever’.
It feels like with Vol. 3 – and with a full album’s length of work – that we’ve closed the first Ambient Soul Music Club chapter: really nailing our style, influences and vibe ready for the next step”
Vol 3 is the third Metalabel release from Graeme Worsfold following the platform success of the first two volumes. It includes four instrumental tracks created from the collision of ambient and soul music recorded during the spring of 2024/25 in rural Maidenhead, Berkshire in the UK.
This third Digital Drop of the Four Track series follows the formula of Vol. 1 and 2 by including four videos produced to support each piece. This is an initial run of 100 downloads. Demand dependent, a full vinyl Drop will follow.
