Bolted (Translucent Green Vinyl)
Forest Swords (aka electronic producer, Matthew Barnes) spent the past few years working as an in-demand composer; writing music for ballet, film and video games.
His ad hoc studio in a former vehicle and munitions factory (with connections to shadowy guerilla artists The KLF) became a gateway for him to explore, using hardware, software and tape machines to sculpt a sound world for this new album, āBoltedā.
Across āBoltedāās 11 tracks he dives deeper into his unique sonic vocabulary (including personal samples of Neneh Cherry and the late Lee Scratch Perry) to weave together a set of tracks that sounds equally muscular and bleak, haunting and euphoric.
Reviews & features in Pitchfork, The FADER, DJ Mag, Stereogum, Resident Advisor, Clash, The Line of Best Fit, The Quietus, The New Yorker, The Guardian, Time Out, Billboard, i-D, Dazed, FACT, DIY, Mixmag, NME, The Wire andĀ Q.
