Conductor, curator, arranger and Co-founder of the London Contemporary Orchestra Robert Ames releases his first album on Modern Recordings, “Change Ringing”.
"Robert Ames has been a key exchange agent between the classical tradition and contemporary music. co-Founding the London Contemporary Orchestra fresh out of the Royal Academy of Music, Robert went on to work like; conducting Jonny Greenwood’s Oscar Nominated score for the film Phantom Thread , strings for Frank Ocean’s Blonde , arranging and conducting shows for Little Simz and Sigur Rós frontman Jónsi, as well as a longstanding relationship with composer Actress, producing and writing on on his 2020 album Karma & Desire.
With the LCO he has worked closely with the minimalist geniuses of the 20 th century like Steve Reich, Terry Riley and Philip Glass as the orchestra proselytized their worth to a new generation. Just before her passing in 2016, Ames conducted a special version of Pauline Oliveros Rock Piece with rock’s from Britain’s Suffolk coastline.
It’s with this deep apprehension and wide practice that Robert turned his focus to writing his debut record; a breathtaking, seemingly infinitely generative stream of sonic consciousness, made for a meditative mental gaze. Robert’s unique use of 20th c. electronic techniques and Western tradition annotation saw him slow down recordings, annotate the slow-motion versions, then re-recorded them. This way he formed layers of audio and written music, a geological contouring of the soundscape. This addition of manual information evolution counter-intuitively found a royal road to the unconscious.
“The majority of the album was written and recorded between April - May 2019 in my small studio in the Peak District” explains Robert (the Peak District is a famed upland area in the North of England known for its wide panoramas of valleys and gorges, cut through a limestone plateau) . “I naturally found myself drawing on sounds from my childhood. The echoes of choirs and organs in large spaces, distant church bells, large symphonic gestures crackling through an old car stereo, competing with the low hum and rumble of wheels on the road and the cacophony of orchestras slowly tuning up. I resisted the temptation of using discernible tempos and time signatures to give a feeling of timelessness. I like the idea that each track sounds like it’s going on a journey that is infinite and what is recorded is just a snapshot of something much longer. I started by layering up multiple recordings of myself on the violin and viola as well as recording vocals. I would often slow down these recordings so they were unrecognisable, notate the recordings as sheet music and re-record the sheet music. I would go through this process several times until I had something that I enjoyed listening to.”"

“Change Ringing Remixed” by Robert Ames is out now!
The remixed version of “Change Ringing”, by composer and musical all-rounder Robert Ames, is finally here! The EP includes four remixes of tracks that were featured on “Change Ringing”, however it feels like a completely new album in itself. The remixes by KMRU, Alex Somers , Emika and Ben Corrigan range from ambient sounds with dark electronica and twisted rhythms, to driving bass-lines, reminiscent of Berlin techno beats, making this project incredibly multi-facetted. The EP is now available for download and for streaming on all major platforms. Enjoy!
