BECOMING A BEACH ANGEL (VINYL)

UK drummer and sound artist Cameron Graham dances between EDM, joyous calypso colour, cellular Glassian
minimalism, and hyperrealist AI on debut album Becoming a Beach Angel, evoking a SNES world of blissful vibrancy.
Creating his dizzying, dayglo MIDI explorations with drumkit triggers, UK musician Cameron Graham conjures a multitude of
soundworlds from dense compositional structures. The music of debut album Becoming a Beach Angel touches on neon, videogame
digitisation, the finessed, mechanical precision of IDM, even the rhythmic intensity of gamelan, whilst retaining a thrilling and wholly
singular energy. The record is an electrifying experience, full of colour.
Becoming a Beach Angel flips and trips through headspinning, hyperspeed effervescence, like an entire rave condensed into a
moment. Instantly joyful, its textures - formed in wavetable synthesis triggered by live-performed percussion pads - thread and bob
through hyperreal abstract space, millisecond snippets of organ chords and steel pans zooming like stars in a galaxy rocketed past at
lightspeed. "It's about grabbing and holding a close person going through depression or self-doubt, taking them out the door,"
Cameron explains. "Dance music for that moment you need only to find a way to move forward."
With both silken, intuitive deftness, and meticulously rehearsed ability, Graham reins control of multiple spinning melodic lines and
frequency filters into a unique bridge between various electronic and minimalist musics, celebrating and rejoicing, joyously dancing
long into the night.
