Wil Bolton - Above The Neon Glow (2021) [Official Digital Download 24/48]

‘Above the Neon Glow’ is inspired by moments of shade and tranquility in the blistering heat of a New York summer.

Guitars, mellotron, analogue and modular synthesizers and effects pedals combine with field recordings made in Coney Island, Brighton Beach and Williamsburg, on a bench in Central Park, outside a subway station in Queens and from an apartment window high above the traffic buzz and neon glow of Manhattan.

Wil Bolton is a London-based artist and musician, whose work uses guitars, acoustic instruments, vintage keyboards and effects to create warm and emotive melodies, fragmented and submerged among beds of droning ambient textures and environmental sounds. He has released albums on labels including Hibernate, Time Released Sound, Eilean, Home Normal, Dauw, Dronarivm and Fluid Audio. He has also shown his sound and video works in exhibitions at ICA, Incheon Art Platform, Liverpool Biennial and others, and has performed at venues including Cafe Oto, Tate Liverpool and I'Klectik Art Lab.
