With six months being spent just on preparation, an entire week of 12 hour days in the hall and an entire 6 months of post production, we took creating the next instalment of our most popular range very very seriously. Albion IV is by far our darkest anthology and possibly our most ambitious project yet. This is an awesome landscape, in its scale, its fearful and still isolation but also its sudden and unexpected fury. Beaten by the tempestuous forces of nature they reside in a part of the world where great masses of land grow hulk-like out of an inky charcoal sea. Henson.SPITFIRE PRESENTS ALBION VOLUME #4The Scottish Isles of North & South Uist (pronounced you-issed) are part of the western isles.
He was commissioned for a piece at the proms a couple of years ago, I attended the Albert Hall to watch this premier and instantly knew Spitfire needed to work with him!” C. but from a cello? As a brass player himself his woodwind and brass couplings are something very special. He probes every avenue of an instrument until, out pops a opera singer or a euphonium…. Namely discovering the beauty in experimentation and exploration. Which will enable to morph your listener’s world from that of orchestral order to utterly warped disorder!” Ben Foskett and I have worked together on about 20 scores, not only is he an awesome orchestrator he and I share the same musical aesthetic.
There is only one way we could present this “Stephenson’s Steam Band IV” section of UIST and that as a cartridge for our amazing eDNA engine. These vary from organic orchestras from another place and age to screaming synths and widescreen pads. Matching the spirit of volumes 1 though 3 we have then taken these unique recordings and have warped them into a broad selection of trailblazing hybrid sounds. As these ensembles are recorded via the finest vintage valve and ribbon mics to tape in the hall at Air Studios, Albion IV is designed to integrate seamlessly with both the rest of the Albion range as well as the BML and Definitive ranges also recorded in the hall. With everything arranged to interlock between sections. UIST plays true to the Albion range in that it is recorded in large epic cinematic orchestral ensembles Strings High, Strings Low, Winds High, Winds Low, Brass High and Brass Low all playing these expertly crafted “progressive” techniques. Presented alongside an epic collection of nearly 200 warped orchestral hybrids powered by the eDNA synth engine.
Albion IV presents large ensembles playing over 800 unique and extraordinary atonal, aleatoric and “progressive” articulations. Part IV of the widescreen range of composer’s tools that give you everything you need to make modern film music out of one box.
