{"product_id":"u-archenfield-vinyl","title":"U - Archenfield","description":"\u003cp\u003eAutodidactic musicologist and sample collagist U turned his archival eye on the melting pot of '80s post-punk with his debut 'Life Isn't A Fountain?' EP for Lex. He follows up with an experimental exploration of regional identity with ARCHENFIELD, a deeply personal collection of ambient music and found sound that examines the relationship between geographical space and aural histories.To construct this record U mined a wealth of recorded material relevant to the area. With a nod to traditional music, he takes samples from these records and creates beautifully atmospheric sound pieces that are often mixed with painstakingly researched snippets to create a stirring reflection on local history and broader themes of how we interact, or even fail to interact, with English folklore today. Pressed on 180g vinyl, the album comes with a 24-page visual companion that expands on it's themes and folk stories through imagery and narrative, echoing the album's soundscape.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sonic Highway","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51617825521959,"sku":"5060121302488","price":42.23,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0898\/0640\/5927\/files\/4456978-3447537_76ae2672-703b-4e51-a3c2-dac068d9d93b.jpg?v=1783661197","url":"https:\/\/www.corkyscoffee.com\/products\/u-archenfield-vinyl","provider":"Corkys Coffee","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
