Sound designer Max Cooper is back with the drop of his first new single of the year, ‘Vertebrae / Forgotten Places’. The new track is taken from Cooper’s upcoming ‘Motif’ EP, which is scheduled for release this October 6th, 2023 via Mesh.
‘Vertebrae / Forgotten Places’ features the collaboration of Australian singer/songwriter Kathrin deBoer, who also fronts the electro-soul outfit Belleruche.
“The mixture of genres on this record might make more sense looking at my life in electronic music. Beginning in the 90s with an upbringing on classic synth-pop and classical music, then my first tape ‘Prodigy Experience’, and first night out at their Breathe Tour ahead of a delve deep into the Trance, Techno, and remnants of Rave of the late ’90s in Northern Ireland and Ibiza. I then moved to Nottingham in ‘99 and went to my first Drum and Bass night at the Marcus Garvey Ballroom, after which I started integrating those records into my collection.” explains Max Cooper about the incoming EP.
Playing on the idea of motifs, the cover art was created by Mykola Haleta and features the graphic artist’s distinctive textile patterning design.
Max Cooper’s ‘Motif’ EP is available to pre-order now on digital and vinyl with 200 Limited edition splatter vinyl available on Mesh’s Bandcamp exclusively.
