For the first interpretation of quiet details, it gives us so much joy to share this beautiful album from one of our favourite artists of all time, the humble bee. 

For anyone who knows his wonderful and vast back catalogue, it's clear he embodies the idea of quiet details in a way that fits perfectly with our aesthetic. 

As he’s been a part of the label since the very beginning, it’s so fitting this is the first release. 

Starting with subtle and detailed field recordings and frayed piano tape loops, it evolves over the course of the album, a true masterclass in delicate use of time, space and dynamics. 

Melodic richness meets fragmented loops and atmospherics in the most gorgeous way, as only the humble bee can. 

Truly an album that rewards careful listening, full of quiet details. 

Mastered by Ian Hawgood, also a part of this from day one - another huge inspiration, our most trusted set of ears who’s brought out the very best in the music. 

Everything about this album encompasses what we’re about and we’re so happy to share it with you. 

As with every release, it's accompanied by artwork handmade in-house, with the music and each artist's intuition as a guide to the palette and structure. 

Made through a combination of paper-making, natural dyes, mixed media and analogue photography – we hope each piece conveys the feeling and space of each album, directly from the artists. 

All the proceeds from this release and certain future releases will be donated to Tonic Music for Mental Health - an amazing charity supporting musicians - 'founded upon the belief that participation in music and the arts can aid you in your recovery from mental illness'.
