About This Release
Double vinyl LP pressing. 2015 album by Rival Consoles AKA London-based electronic producer Ryan Lee West. Foremost a guitarist, growing up listening to rock rather than club music, West continues to strive towards finding a more personal balance between music for home listening and larger spaces. The title track was inspired by the howl-like tones he developed by running synthesizers through guitar pedals. The album explores a wide range of emotions; from the dissonance eruptions and primal rhythms in 'Howl', to the mournful improvisations of '3 Laments', which features a sample of his own voice. Alongside his performances on Moog, Prophet, tape delay and guitar, West enlisted the help of drummer Fabian Prynn for 'Low' and cellist Peter Gregson for 'Walls', both long-time collaborators of Erased Tapes peers Douglas Dare and Michael Price.
