Coming soon - qd25 r beny - discerned in the fugue of streams

Track Preview, qd19 Loula Yorke second run and loads of shout-outs too x

Oct 16, 2024

Hi friends - hope all good :)

To celebrate our 25th release we have something very special for you - the return of an artist who is so dearly loved in the electronic music world and beyond - the wonderful Austin Cairns, otherwise known as r beny.

Out next Wednesday 23rd October, digital and CD editions. As always the physical edition comes with the unique long-form version of the album and bespoke six panel digi-pack, with separate artwork and glass-mastered CD. Listening party Thursday 24th Oct at 19:00 UK time.

r beny’s previous albums have transcended musical boundaries and spoken to people across all walks of life - seems whatever genre or artistic preferences they have, there’s something ubiquitous about his music almost everyone gravitates towards.

discerned in the fugue of streams is an extremely personal album, inspired by the catharsis offered by the natural world, and focusing on its beauty as an antidote to the stresses of the modern world.

Exquisitely textured harmonic soundscapes mix with fragments of contemplative and refined melody; carefully curated and processed field recordings integrate beautifully into these stunning snapshots of r beny’s musical evolution.

Full of lucid expressions of deeper meaning - this album’s an incredible achievement by a musician with a universal sensitivity and a way of articulating his emotions through awe-inspiring technical proficiency.

Very much looking forward to sharing this with you, for now check out some of his previous work, all highly recommended!

Also coming is the second run of qd19 Loula Yorke - the love for this one has been amazing so, if you want one please don’t sleep as I think they’ll go fast.

Lots of shout-outs today! As always so grateful to all the DJs, radio stations, journalist, online and print magazines - support their work however you can friends, they do so much x
