This album has been simmering away in the background for some time; with writing from as early as 2017 beginning to explore the voice through mediums of poetry, evolving over time into a more narrative Hip Hop style. The musical influences of this project stem from the roots of own Scottish Oral Tradition of folk song and storytelling and span out to my wide reaching interests in music from other parts of the world. Much sonic inspiration is drawn from my 2019 independent Ethnomusicology research project: A Vocal Journey In Mongolia where I engaged in direct transmission of various techniques in Overtone Throat Singing.
