Of Ghosts And Other Forms
Of Ghosts and Other Forms tell their story of staying connected in times of isolation.
Their sound melds electronic and organic sounds - putting flutes through vocoders, layering operatic vocals, and looping emotive four-part harmonies. There is a beautiful musicality in this electronic disassembly.
They accidentally became a band, meeting through the East London warehouse scene and gigs in Birmingham, where they played together at after-parties and jam sessions. Initially only an experiment, the combination of sounds and styles worked a little too well, and in January 2020 they began writing songs, unaware that the world was about to pull them apart.
Inspired by a collective love of Bonobo, Kiasmos, and Bicep - they build textural soundscapes punctuated by musings of resilience, and the tangled beauty tied up in lost love. They gently celebrate openness and acceptance of people in all their different shapes and forms.
