"Proper deep industrial synth electronica... a truly sci-fi world… somewhere between Cabaret Voltaire, Boards of Canada and Pye Corner Audio” — Hot Salvation

The second album of Tube-inflected ‘Underground’ works sees London-based electronic music producer P. G. Warren finding asylum and inspiration in the dark empty spaces between people and machinery.

“I was inspired to make a second album entirely on journeys on the London Underground’s Central Line between Mile End and White City.

Around this time I discovered a disused medieval church outside the city and began visiting it on the weekends. I liked its atmospheric acoustics.

I especially liked the emptiness, when I could sit on my own and think straight. Away from the clamour of the everyday life, the church hummed and crackled with spiritual electricity.

Back in the real world, Central Line trains transported me to work and back. Accidentally, I found myself travelling odd hours. The first train. The last train. I became an inhabitant of the quieter interzones between rush hours.

Underground stations, like medieval churches, possess atmospheric acoustics and architecture. Between the roar of the trains and the scrum of commuters, unusual sounds reverberate from the gloom and move to the fore: unnerving metallic groans, reflections of distant voices, subsonic rumbles from the deep, the screech of an escalator, the moan of the subterranean wind.

Experiencing these eerie off-kilter moments reminded me of the stories I’d read about apparitions manifesting themselves in old Tube tunnels and stations in the quiet of night. Away from the glimmer of the fluorescent lights, the blackness hummed and crackled with spectral electricity.

I tuned my antenna to its frequency.”
