Steal The Light

Let Spin's third album, Steal the Light, displays the progress they have made in developing their respective compositional voices and musical outlooks that has resulted in their most accomplished, experimental, and meticulously-produced album to date.

When guitarist Moss Freed, bassist Ruth Goller, drummer Finlay Panter, and saxophonist Chris Williams convened at Hull University's Duality studio, they each harbored desires to use the studio as an instrument, to implement inspirations found in music beyond the worlds of jazz and rock, and to challenge some of the conventions of meter, groove, and melody.

To realize their ambitions, the group worked closely with engineer/producer Alex Killpartrick (Kit Downes, Alice Zawadzki, Liam Noble), inviting him to have a greater creative influence than on either of their previous two records. In experimenting with time and space, challenging their own compositional tendencies, and striving for a more experimental production style, Let Spin have crafted a fluid yet focused LP that reflects their maturity and ambition.

Fans of the boundary-pushing projects led by Mark Guiliana, Petter Eldh, Anton Eger, and Jim Black are certain to appreciate Steal the Light's enticing sound world.
