Jon Hopkins – Ritual (Vinyl)

By turns devotional, empowering and nurturing,Jon Hopkins forthcoming new album Ritual is a 41-minute electronic symphony built from cavernous subs, hypnotic drumming and transcendent melodic interplay. Tense, immersive and ultimately triumphant, it is a culmination of themes explored throughout his 22-year career, and acts as the kinetic counterpart to 2021s Music For Psychedelic Therapy.

A single piece unfolding over eight chapters and three sides of vinyl,Ritual is personified by depth and contrast. Taking ceremony, spiritual liberation and the hero’s journey as inspiration, it taps into an ancient and primal energy and will be released on August 30th via Domino.
