Or… by Aeshim

Radio support from Jamz Supernova (BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 6 Music),

Leaving live drums and acoustic instruments behind in favour of making tracks with a more immediate, speedy, synthesised approach, the Aeshim experiments happen through strict time limitations. His debut album under this pseudonym, “Or…”, was written and produced in the first two weeks of lockdown in the UK.

The debut album takes time to explore these ideas and more, from ambient soundscapes, to dubbed out piano sounds and growling sub arpeggios. And though electronic in form, there are still Scrimshire’s soul influences threaded throughout, clipped vocal harmonies and Rhodes pianos take a place inside the roomy drum loops and sizzling Juno chords.
