Unintentionality as a goal: For their new album »Field Recordings«, the Belgian duo 40 Winks set out with their recording equipment and collected all kinds of sounds by chance, which they incorporated into their relaxed framework of beats, instrumental hip-hop, soul, jazz and gospel. In the advance track »GONE TOMORROW« you can already tell how harmoniously everything fits together. A pounding piano briefly fights with the drums for the rhythm, while a guitar provides a late summer atmosphere and the appropriate gospel sample runs over the whole thing. Relaxed vibe just remains relaxed vibe. For almost twenty years now, 40 Winks have been active in the scene and had found their characteristic sound early on. »Field Recordings« with its 17 tracks is no exception. Rather, it is like a familiar trip that opens up here. Only maybe with a few detours and a few more sunsets than usual. And in the end the way is always the goal. Just unintentionality. The record will be released on September 3rd via our own label Project: Mooncircle in a limited colored vinyl edition.
