Seams - 'Nightcycles' (Tough Love Records)


Hailing from Birmingham, this month see's the release of London based James Welch aka Seams' spanking new 12" Nightcycles. The bedroom producer draws influences such as Four Tet, Boards of Canada, Prefuse 73 and Flying Lotus to name a few and is rapidly making a name for himself accross the UK electronica scene. Nightcycles combines a hypnotic use of acoustic sounds which are cut up with looped piano, synths and samples together with layered broken down beats.

You can pre-order the single NOW and is available for purchase on April 26th on Tough Love Records. Some awesome remixes are included from Dam Mantle, Shells, Becoming Real, and d'Eon which you can sample here.

Seams is currently in the middle of a UK tour alongside Gold Panda and Dam Mantle and to coincide with this release, on April 28th he'll be showing off his beats at the Macbeth in London alongside ADULTS and Maria & The Mirrors, which is FREE entry!

2010 is shaping up to become an exciting year for this dude and Middle Boop look forward to seeing where his journey goes from here.

Words: Freddy Rothman.
