Building Better Worlds

£18.33 (£21.99 incl. VAT)

It began in a Forest Hill cafe in 2017 where London Elektricity adoringly browsed

through a series of BenjaminBeech’s photography of perfectly untouched,

derelict buildings and towns in Japan, Taiwan and China. “Many of the images

show what has been, what could have been and what will be. The duality of

beauty and melancholia within appealed to me immensely.”

Each track was married to a photo, to join the sights to sounds from each of his

tales of ‘Building Better Worlds.’ Leading the voyage is the orchestral masterpiece

‘Final View From The Rooftops’, that’s been 13 years in the making and

is the “most unusual piece of D+B” [he’s] ever made”, featuring the incredible

operatic talent of CydneiB. ‘Build A Better World’ is a smooth drum & bass

sonnet with the vocals of Hospital family favourite Emer Dineen.

“The beauty of this song lies in its simplicity, but also its duality. I’ll leave you to

work out what the lyrics are really about... They are some of the darkest lyrics

I’ve come across in years.” Another special moment is the feature of London

Elektricity’s youngest son, The Secretary-General. The talented nine-year-old

takes no ‘Time To Think’ as he flawlessly flows through Inja’s lyrics with the

ever-vibrant MC following suit, bringing the track full-circle across generations.

London Elektricity is the mastermind behind classic Hospital albums such as

‘Pull The Plug’, ‘Syncopated City’, ‘Are We There Yet?’, and ‘Yikes’.

His latest body of work delves into uncharted depths for a very personal and

expressive collection of tracks where drum & bass and live instrumentation

meet. London Elektricity can be found showcasing this latest chapter with tours

in China, Japan, the UK and Europe throughout 2019.
