Pye Corner Audio

Emerging in the mid- to late-2000s underground electronic music scene that was once coined “British Cosmic Music” by noted article writer Warren Ellis, the suspenseful noises of Pye Part Audio — the music alias of Martin Jenkins (also called the Head Specialist) — had been first heard through his self-released Black colored Mill Tapes this year 2010. The minimal however textural sounds of the tapes shortly captured the interest of supporters of similar works such as for example Demdike Stare, Ekoplekz, Jon Brooks, and performers in the Ghost Container label. Both volumes from the Dark Mill Tapes (Vol. 1: Avant Shards and Vol. 2: Perform You Synthesise?) had been afterwards reissued by reputed electronic label Enter 2012. Inspired with a kaleidoscopic cornucopia of affects which range from the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, the soundtracks of John Carpenter, and Tangerine Wish to the scientific electro noises of Drexciya and traditional Detroit techno, Jenkins would shortly harness these affects with the discharge of his debut record, Sleep Video games, on Jim Jupp’s Ghost Container label in 2012. A flurry of singles implemented in 2013, features getting the Dekorder label-released “Conical Space/Dusk Veiled” as well as the 7″ Ghost Container Study Series cooperation with the Hearing Middle. He also began a fresh musical project, the home in the Woods, in 2013, with a far more ambient and experimental audio in comparison to his additional function; the self-titled EP premiered via Exotic Pylon Information that same yr. In 2014, Type released the 3rd and fourth quantities of Dark Mill Tapes, and a triple-CD compiling all volumes. A break up LP between PCA rather than Waving also made an appearance within the Ecstatic label. Pye Part Audio’s Prowler premiered by A LOT MORE THAN Human being in 2015, and he came back to Ghost Package for 2016’s Stasis.
