Clear

Numbers will release Clear, the debut album by FFT, on 24th June 2022.The result of three years of focused writing and programming by the London-based producer, Clear is deeply psychedelic, defined by a mature sense of melody and structures crafted at a monumental scale.

Though FFT has previously released a handful of tracks under various names, it wasn’t until 2017’s FFT1 EP on theUncertainty Principle label that his production talents began to fuse into a distinct and personal style, especially evident in FFT’s Regional/Loss EP on The Trilogy Tapes in 2019, multiple releases on Bruk Records and 2021’s Disturb Roqe, also released on Numbers.Through it all, FFT has mastered a complex sense of mood catalyzed by sound itself: He builds patches and presets from scratch, and feels these synths and software have their own objectives and reactions, creating a kind of compositional feedback loop.The result is an album that brings to mind a collision of electronic pioneers like Delia Derbyshire and Bernard Parmegiani, 2000’s braindance, the Max-imized wares of an OPN or Objekt and the rough rhythmatics of SND or Mika Vainio
