A newcomer to the post-classical and ambient worlds, yet fully formed as he arrives, Jim Wallis is no stranger to embracing musical crossover. A drummer in critically lauded indie bands Modern Nature (members of Ultimate Painting / Beak>) and Still Corners, as well as a session musician for Bryde and Psychic Markets (Bella Union), Wallis is also a superb ambient artist in his own right. The album, which came out at the start of 2020, accompanies forthcoming independent movie ‘Europa’. ‘Europa "Based on a True Story" documents the story of an asylum seeker who takes his own life.
London based musician Hinako Omori plays live with the likes of Ed O’Brien (Radiohead), Kate Tempest, KT Tunstall, Alt-J and Georgia, yet her hypnotic remix is of another world. She explains; “I became so fixated on the beautiful string outro of ‘Europa II’ that I decided to base the remix around this sequence of chords. The idea was to start with the strings playing serenely and quietly, looping this and building and building until it gradually descends into a whirlwind of mad chaos.”
