A beautiful, crisp, enchanting, experimental number of interweaving polyrhythms with clarinet, by the British singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist and former Wild Beasts frontman taken from the upcoming album Ness, out 27 September on Domino. The album is inspired by the 2018 book of the same name by Robert McFarlane, and this song was written after the musician’s first visit to Orford Ness in Suffolk, the former Ministry of Defence weapons development site during both World Wars and the Cold War. Acquired by the National Trust in 1993 and left to re-wild, it to this day remains a place of paradox, mystery and constant evolution.
