{"product_id":"mr-mitch-parallel-memories","title":"Mr. Mitch Parallel Memories","description":"Mr. Mitch is one of a small group of producers who in the\r\nlast few years have been re-imagining the decade-old genre of Grime. Miles\r\nMitchell, a 26 year-old South East Londoner, started his own Gobstopper label\r\nback in 2010 after having his debut release on Butterz. Last year he started\r\nthe flourishing Boxed 'Instrumental Grime' night alongside producers Slackk,\r\nLogos and Oil Gang. For Mr. Mitch, Grime has \"\u0026amp;always been an experimental\r\nand progressive genre, taking elements of what came before it and pushing those\r\nboundaries to create something new\". His debut album is called 'Parallel\r\nMemories' and Miles has an intriguing story that explains that title. When\r\nlistening to his tracks, he sees the same vivid scenes in his head each time he\r\nreplays the music, often repeated snapshots of his life in various impossible\r\nscenarios or distorted situations. This made him think \"What if the images\r\nI'm seeing are memories from an alternative version of me in a parallel\r\ndimension?\" A question which reflects his vision of Grime too, as his\r\ninstrumentals are informed by a quite personal and emotive alter-life, where\r\nGrime's famous minimalism gives way to a gentle subtlety and is imbued with a\r\nvery different feeling to the brash aggression associated with the genre. The\r\nalbum intro 'Afternoon After' is the bleary-eyed sound of the club the night\r\nbefore, broken down into swirling child-like synth melodies, coiling over\r\nflattened, but airy kick drums. 'The Night' follows, sounding like something\r\nBoards Of Canada might do if they came from S.E. London, its gorgeous flute\r\nmelodies opening up gracefully over minimal rhythms and shifting static tones.\r\n'Intense Faces' marks a shift in the energy to bassline, synth swoops and sharp\r\nclaps, a child-like bleep tune playing out over the top. 'Don't Leave' switches\r\nthe mood to one of sadness, its rising chords evolving over a repeated,\r\nslowed-down acapella. Elsewhere 'Sweet Boy Code', a collaboration with fellow\r\nGobstopper artist Dark0, lets spacey kicks propel its gentle relaxed melodies\r\nover airy sampled vocals. The midpoint track 'Wandering Glaciers' twists Grime\r\ninto what sounds like a tense piece of early electronica. Meanwhile 'Bullion'\r\nchops up a lumbering sample that sound like a marauding giant. The album\r\nfinishes on 'Hot Air', with its drum pattern sounding like a slow heart beat\r\nand strange, backwards synths, it feels like a voyage around a body.This is an\r\nalbum that deserves to find an audience who are willing to go on a journey into\r\nnew areas with Grime.\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenre: Dance \u0026amp; Electronic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal ID: JITRE\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat Detail: 2LP w\/ DL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFormat: Vinyl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHandling Note: **Please allow an additional 72 hours for this item's shipment.**\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReleased: 12\/2\/14\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Mr. Mitch","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50077581148353,"sku":"UH9SDM-YRJ7-5T","price":32.6,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2176\/9085\/files\/mr-mitch-parallel-memories_gdIYK.jpg?v=1774406060","url":"https:\/\/fsgprints.com\/products\/mr-mitch-parallel-memories","provider":"Feels So Good","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
