David Harrow - In C - electronic interpretation of Terry Riley’s landmark minimalist piece, in slow, fast, and “12-inch” versions

Performed, recorded and produced by David Harrow, this project was inspired by Terry Riley’s groundbreaking 1964 minimalist masterwork. “One of the joys of In C is the interaction of the instruments in poly-rhythmic combinations that spontaneously arise between patterns. Some quite fantastic shapes will arise and disintegrate as these groups move through the piece.” – Terry Riley

Peter Hope & David Harrow - Frique Head Blues - a fruitful collaboration still going strong after 35 years

When Hope + Harrow first released their SUFFERHEAD EP back in 1985 it was Fela Kuti's 'Original Sufferhead' that inspired the title. Back then, in Thatcher's Britain, protest songs were very much in the fore as privatisation of the country's industry and infrastructure cut deep into the working classes and pitted them, head to head, against each other & the government. Over in Nigeria Fela was the real deal when it came to speaking out against state/military authority and corruption and, as such, was an inspiration, made all the more potent through the infectious rhythms and melodies. For David Harrow this was the catalyst for a life long love affair with African music and instrumentation. There is no greater exponent of struggle in the human condition than the blues. It deals in absolute and undeniable truths, beautiful in its imperfection, it is a direct transmission of the spirit. Listen to the field hollers of the American south or the early recordings of folk blues from the Mississippi Delta and you are hearing the very source of all modern Western music, albeit through its own roots threading back, once more, to Africa. This is the sound that first infected Peter Hope as far back as 1965, from the spark of Howlin' Wolf's 'Little Red Rooster' performed by The Rolling Stones on Ready Steady Go! So here they are, raw & simple Ethno-Électronique-Blues. It wasn't planned or preconceived & is neither purist or artificial but was created by simply doing what we do, unhindered by external filters or second guessing. Although we're sure there's a label out there who'd love to do a physical release we haven't found it yet. We'd intended on doing a limited hand-made CDR package but the viral lockdown of Interzone has put a gag on that too, so, for now, grab the FREE DOWNLOAD, sing and dance, press repeat and, if possible, SHARE the infection. Above all "Keep the good vodou in your heart" D. Harrow - All Instrumentation P. Hope - Vocals Collage Image (front) - D.M. Nagu (d-m-nagu.de)

David Harrow - Dub Journeys, Volume 1: OICHO (Dubmission)

Without much fanfare or fuss, maverick producer David Harrow has been dropping dubs under his OICHO guise for over a decade, releasing on a range of different platforms and labels. Now Dubmission Records has dug deep into this past and cherry picked their favourite tracks for “Dub Journeys, Volume 1: OICHO”. Some tracks have then been completely rerecorded, others slightly reworked, with all of them remastered to create the first part of a new series showcasing his work. Harrow has a rich history in both the dub and industrial music scenes, with his collision of sonic worlds spawning a raft of amazing releases. The early 80’s saw Harrow performing with industrial mavericks Psychic TV and collaborating with Anne Clark. After a stint in San Fransisco, he worked with Jah Wobble in Holland, and then, as the acid house scene developed, began playing at raves around the UK. In the late ‘80s/early 90’s, he became involved with Adrian Sherwood’s OnU Soundsystem, touring along with Barmy Army, African Headcharge, Dub Syndicate and vocalist Gary Clail. During this period, Harrow wrote, recorded and co-produced tracks for artists such as Lee "Scratch" Perry, Bim Sherman, African Head Charge’s and Mark Stewart. He went on to work with Andrew Weatherall under the name Blood Sugar and developed three new aliases: James Hardway, Magnetic and Technova, releasing their output on the Hydrogen Dukebox, Recordings of Substance and Sabres of Paradise labels. He also spent time in New Zealand producing The Headless Chickens and Salmonella Dub. The legacy of his diverse recording experience can be heard in his OICHO tracks, notably the time spent on African Head Charge’s “Songs of Praise” can be heard in percussive tracks like Arrowrooted, Sofa Kings and Battle System. As he puts it: “Percussion is the first instrument, the foundation on which we build, that has never changed. I try to take myself back to … the Nyahbinghi drum circles in Dalston.” “Dub Journeys, Volume 1: OICHO” offers a brief, bass heavy glimpse into the musical mind of David Harrow – roll on Volume 2.
