Ian Hawgood curates not one, but three labels, including the highly regarded Home Normal and calls both Tokyo and London his home. “Wolfskin” adds to his already considerable creative palette. A cathartic and cleansing collection of soundscapes, created by guitar and piano, imbued with a personal touch that is such a hallmark of his previous work.
With an approach that is both abstract and melodic, “Wolfskin” runs through the full gamut of emotions, taking some deft left-turns, keeping listeners on their toes before drawing to a close with a degree of poignancy with the superb epic “Let’s Dance Until The Shallows Break”. This is a record where repeated plays pay dividends.
