The subsequent release, \u003ci\u003eFlowing Fades,\u003c\/i\u003e in April 2021, saw Wood reincorporate synths into his compositions, drawing inspiration from a diverse range of influences including J.G. Ballard, Serge Gainsbourg, 80s dream pop, and yacht-rock. To support the album, Wood embarked on Saccades' inaugural live tour in the summer of 2021, performing a selection of dates throughout the UK, before shifting focus to their next record.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eLand of the Hearth\u003c\/i\u003e, Saccades' latest offering, takes its name from a passage by Jonathon Meades and signals a transition for Nicholas Wood, moving away from The KVB's nocturnal soundscapes and industrial beats, and embracing a more Balearic sensibility. The album boasts a sun-kissed, dreamlike quality, occasionally nodding to the uplifting vibes of house music.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"New World Recordings","offers":[{"title":"LP","offer_id":50485828780363,"sku":"2029812","price":17.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/1120\/6219\/files\/Saccades_-_Land_of_The_Hearth_dd7565f8_thumbnail_4096.jpg?v=1727603443","url":"https:\/\/shop.roughtrade.com\/products\/land-of-the-hearth","provider":"Rough Trade","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
