about

Originally from Nottingham, I moved to the capital in September 2014 and have lived in various areas of
South and East London.

I became affiliated with the JOS Project in Homerton, first as a volunteer then progressed to be a facilitator.

lyrics

It was impossible to write this track without acknowledging not only the influence of the people I have met through JOS, but also the vibrant musical heritage of London itself.

After hearing the Redmond Concert File, I picked out a short segment consisting of vocals and percussion then cut it into a series of loops, proceeding to build up the entire song around them.

This was my first experimentation with writing around a sample, a practice I would normally eschew. It was an interesting and enthralling way of writing as I had no idea how the end result would
turn out.

I give thanks to whoever bought or listened this compilation, James for helping with recording the vocals, William and the rest of the JOS team and most importantly to the participants of JOS who made this possible. You have shown me that music making has no barriers.

Consider this a gift in exchange for your knowledge, time and patience.

Thank you,

Daniel Armstrong
