Pitchblack Mixtapes x Late Night Tales: Jon Hopkins (10th Anniversary)
*Please arrive by event start time as latecomers will not be admitted and refunds will not be offered*
Come on a trip through Jon Hopkins' record collection at Pitchblack Playback's album listening session in the dark, celebrating 10 years of his supremely dreamy Late Night Tales compilation. Hear this immense mixtape played loud in uncompressed audio on our powerful Screen One cinema sound sound system. No distractions; just you and the music.
Late Night Tales welcomed UK producer and musician Jon Hopkins to its fold in 2015 with a beautiful sequence of songs and music. This is Jon Hopkins’ world, not so much joining the dots as coloring the whole damn picture in.
Poet and fellow Brian Eno collaborator (their joint album 'Drums Between The Bells' was released by Warp in 2011) Rick Holland narrates the exclusive spoken word closer 'I Remember', underpinned with additional sound design by Hopkins.
"Putting this album together was a unique opportunity for me to present music that I have been listening to for years, free from the constraints of a club setting or trying to stick to one genre. I chose tracks not just because they have been important to me but because of how they sit together, putting as much thought into the transitions and overall narrative as I did into the track choices. I mixed by key and by texture more than anything else, using original sound design, pivot notes, and often recording new synth or piano parts to link things together in a way that flows as naturally as possible. I hope you enjoy it" - Jon Hopkins
