ALEX SMOKE Love Over Will LP

+ DIGITAL DOWNLOAD

In his latest album for R&S Records, Glaswegian producer Alex Smoke continues developing the sound exhibited on incredible singles for the label like ‘Dust’ and ‘GreenMan’, furrowing the depths of melancholia but emerging with something surprisingly optimistic. With a greater use of his own voice than ever before, Love Over Will is a mesh of hypnotic rhythms, layered discordant electronics, and skewed quasi-pop music. The foggy sound palette more than lives up to the ‘Smoke’ part of his moniker, while the excellent and deliberately provocative artwork visualises the album’s implicit references to Aleister Crowley’s occultology.
