Luke Abbott previews new album with third single "Ames Window"
Luke Abbott is back with new song "Ames Window", which arrives as the third single to be lifted from his upcoming album Translate.
"Ames Window" lands after earlier singles "Earthship" and "Kagen Sound", all of which will feature on Abbott's first solo LP in six years.
Speaking about the new release, Abbott says, ""Ames Window" is an indulgent improvised modular synth track. It reminded me of the Ames window optical illusion because it has this spinning, disorientating quality. I like music that is very freeform, and this track is like a wild and amorphous cloud that’s constantly turning itself inside out."
Translate was written, recorded and produced by Abbott, and is his first solo LP since 2014's Wysing Forest.
Abbott recorded the album at James Holden's Sacred Walls studio throughout summer 2019.
