The album is unambiguously about the night, about dark city streets, evoking glass, concrete and slow, incessant rain. However, it is also by some margin our brightest, breeziest and most optimistic record. Here, the seductive nocturnal rhythms of Hannah Peel and Steve Reich sit alongside music of a different sort – unsettling, introspective works by Lyra Pramuk and Julius Eastman.
Electronic sounds and field recordings run through the record. In the titular ‘Neon’, Peel uses samples from Shinjuku Station in Tokyo to evoke teeming musical scenes full of life. Her joyful music reflects Steve Reich’s Double Sextet, which sees the Collective performing against recordings of themselves. Producer Lyra Pramuk’s composing debut, ‘Quanta’, opens with the sound of a huge grandfather clock that waxes and wanes throughout the piece. ‘Joy Boy’ by Julius Eastman is similarly obsessed with time, instructing the performers to “create ticker tape music”.
