Beyond the corporate finance of the City, the
anodyne bars of the West End and the affluent
riches out west, there is another London.
Head out at sunset to the edges and just
watch. Listen. As the sun drops, soon a
different city emerges, a mesh of disparate
groups and communities, visible but unseen,
vocal - in countless vibrant accents,
languages and dialects - but unheard, vital
but unrecognised by the centre.
By night, the city comes alive with sound:
raw slang, dialects, clanking trains, sub
bass waves and rebel radio frequencies. This
album is a reflection of these places,
people, voices and cultures, a snapshot of
the forgotten edges of a city at dusk:
intense, in technicolour, in transition but
forever an inspiration.
