Lemon Jelly vibe of ‘Jive County’.
Add to this the floating trip-hop of ‘Let's Normalise’ and
change direction once more with the clanging industrial beats
of ‘Little Green Men’ and its extraordinary orchestral
coda.
My Sanctuary was recorded over a year long
period, while he was also working on other projects. Originally,
he had conceived it as a purely instrumental album. "I
had some very chilled rhythms and beats and noises. But then
I realised I also wanted something you could whistle in the
shower and so I moved to a more song-based approach."
In addition to Ken himself, vocalists on
the album include Carol Keogh of The Tycho Brahe and Cathy
Davy, now signed to Parlophone as a solo artist. Keogh played
a particularly important role, singing on half a dozen tracks
and contributing lyrics.
Autamata will be bringing their live show
to the UK to tie in with a second single in January and the
release of My Sanctuary in February.
Music is his sanctuary. Let it be yours
too.
