U-I - Enter the Garden (2020)

U-I returns to Seb Wildblood’s All My Thoughts imprint with the new album Enter The Garden. Born & raised in Heidelberg, the elusive producer U-I marries influences from both virtual and physical
universes for his second venture on the London/LA based label. Citing artistry from video game soundtracks throughout the album, Conversation In The Next Room plays the album in with looping melodies and low-slung
percussion, before layering intricate notes in downtempo builder Baumhaus.

Up next are Plankton From Space and Interspaced, two inviting tracks with an emphasis on spaced-out drum patterns and experimental elements. Quality Time deviates to a blissed out soundscape, before U-I explores an affinity with drums and hardware on title track Enter The Garden and Mycelium - showcasing complex musical structures bonding elements from breaks, hip-hop, drum and bass, ambient and IDM.

The penultimate track Frogs distorts and contracts with instrumental components whilst evolving towards the computerised style of closing track Final Rover - a culmination of abstract percussion and synthesised melodics.
