Luke Abbott

He records and performs extensively under his own name, under the alias Earlham Mystics, and as one-third of the electronic jazz group Szun Waves.

His work has been described as "left-field techno and kraut-infused electro" but also draws on more esoteric elements of improvisation, "psychedelic, filtered beats and slow-evolving synths".

The album "presents pristine calm washes, deeply unsettling throbs and blasts of strident noise" and can be seen as a return to the "youthful art school indoctrination" of his time studying Electroacoustic Composition at UEA in Norwich.

The album was born out of a process of personal psychological re-evaluation and the rediscovery of Abbott's own solo music-making practice.

[10][11][12] Abbott is also one third of Szun Waves alongside British saxophonist Jack Wyllie (Portico Quartet) and Australian drummer Laurence Pike (Triosk, PVT).
