7 Pye Corner Audio Stasis GHOST BOX 2016, £10.95

-

Uneasy listening from the brainchild of synth outrider Martin Jenkins.

Jenkins’ often chilling soundscape­s join the dots between science fiction – quotes from writers Arthur C Clarke and Ursula K Le Guin adorn the sleeve artwork to Stasis – English horror soundtrack­s and the BBC Radiophoni­c Workshop. Jupp calls these alluring innovation­s “sci-fi slow disco”: Stasis, Jenkins’ third Ghost Box album and follow-up to 2012’s alsoexcell­ent Ghost Box debut

Sleep Games, is just that, a somnambuli­stic post-rave dancefloor sound, with a hint of John Carpenter and Tangerine Dream also thrown in. He’s since recorded 2019’s Pye Corner Audio long-player

Hollow Earth, another sonic pleasure; also check out his recordings as The Head Technician and The House In The Woods.
