Today’s guest are the Andrews from Room of Wires.
I came across Room of Wires on the ever-reliable Igloo Mag. They occupy that space where industrial grit meets the sharp edges of intelligent dance music. My curiosity piqued, I turned to Bandcamp and their latest album, Floodplains. Four tracks in, I was captivated. I reached out to have them guest deejay on Soundwave.
The two Andrews hail from the UK. They conjure dark, delicate melodies with synths, field recordings, and software. They’ve never met, choosing instead to work alone, sharing their sonic ideas across the vast ether of the internet. One among tangles of hardware and wires, the other adrift in software and virtual cables.
Their discography is spread across labels like ant-zen, Rednetic Recordings, Section 27 and PingDiscs. They’ve left their mark on numerous compilations and film scores, like Shifter and Versus. Now, they’re crafting their third album for ant-zen, set for release later this year.
Join us next week where our guest deejay will be Peter Adjobia of Ryu Recordings.
