Lord Jabu
Formality / Ancient Mariner

Tripped out and experimental dub from Ireland, starring the elusive songwriter with a captivating voice - Sarah Gleeson. Produced by Dan Taliras, founder of Echobus Records, who has been recording and championing reggae from his Dublin studio for over a decade.

Described as library music for modern times, think downtempo acid infusions.

New family members Loris S. Sarid & Innis Chonnel summon a long-overdue return to the 12th Isle with an album built around percussive sounds taken from various mic-ed up objects found in a wood workshop on the East Coast of Scotland. With the pair occasionally leaving said workshop to enjoy some respite in Innis Chonnel’s horse box / studio, the artists hatched a plan to process and program their field recordings, later combining them with improvised synthesiser rhythms and overdubs. The tracks began to materialise over the course of a few follow-up sessions by which time saws sang and flutes flowed through watering cans. Shortly afterwards they found their way to us via carrier pigeon on a CD-ROM that smelt vaguely of soiled hay and we knew we had to act.With the help of an old reel to reel and the tape bounce & mastering work of Murray Collier, we present them here in their final format.
