Review: There's something ominously foreboding yet wholly alluring about the sounds of Flux & Contemplation, Simon Posford's debut solo album. Spurred by the recent lockdown, the album delves deep into themes of isolation in 2020, bringing together swathes of dub and drone to bird song, minimal piano and beatless numbers like "On A Rainy Day" and "Cyclical Ruminations". Find straight up rhythm tracks in "The New Normal", "Wish You Weren't Here" and the nebulous "The Hobbyist" with its shimmering
atmospheres, holographic vocals and hissing percussion. Proof of what an artist can achieve when left only with time and their devices.
