Circadian (out 13th September via One Little Indian Records) takes the listener through the cycle of sleep stages, emulating REM, light sleep, deep sleep and an abrupt awakening. Delago was inspired by the concept of individual circadian rhythms, due in part to his own lack of sleep as an international touring musician with Björk, Olafur Arnalds, Cinematic Orchestra and Anoushka Shankar.
Delago incorporates percussive instruments found on those worldwide tours–from places such as Vietnam, Russia, Turkey and Indonesia–with an aim to create an electronic-inspired album in an acoustic form. "I wanted to incorporate elements of the electronic music that influences me; I used clarinets and accordion like warm analog synthesizers, and added strings and trombone to give it an orchestral but yet very intimate character" he explains
Expect a unique sonic journey.
