Amon Tobin's Australian Tour and Accompanying CD is no Foley

Amon Tobin Jet Sets Into Australia Before The Release Of His Highly Anticipated New Album 'foley Room'

Genius of noise manipulation and uncompromising musical auteur, Amon Tobin will shortly be releasing his new album for Ninja Tune, 'Foley Room'.

For this new project Amon and a team of assistants headed out into the streets with high sensitivity microphones and recorded found sounds from tigers roaring to cats eating rats, neighbours singing in the bath to ants eating grass.

Tobin then took this wealth of source material and twisted it round into the haunting, muscular music you can hear for the first time here. It should be noted that although the process was quite experimental, the 'Foley Room' isn't an exercise in avant-garde music. Rather the end result is still pure Amon Tobin but pushed miles forward in sonics and melody due to the depth of source material.

A marvellous introduction to the latest stage in Amon Tobin's brutal, beautiful musical development, the release of 'Foley Room' will be accompanied by a DVD documentary showing the full story of how this remarkable record was made.
