Taken from the album “Active Imagination” out 6th May (CD/DL) 24th June 2022 (LP) on Human Chorus.
Electronic / folk artist Will Samson announces the release of his brand new album “Active Imagination”, the follow-up to 2019’s “Paralanguage“, released via Wichita Recordings. Worked on across the span of one entire year – from January of 2020 through to December – it’s comprised of nine beautiful new pieces, and sits as a richly layered meditation on the idea of belonging, identity and the search for home in the most unstable of worlds.
Marking ten years since the release of “Balance“, his 2012 debut, Will Samson’s new album feels almost like the product of his learning and growth over the past decade.Dreamlike in the swirling, illusory nature of its unfolding, Active Imagination is a testament to Samson’s continued exploration – both of the world around him and his own inner workings that continue to provide great mysteries to interpret. Patient but cryptic, the album takes that voyage and creates a mesmerising landscape for listeners to explore, in the same way that Samson’s work always has.
