Recorded partly in their homes and finalized in a basement in Hoxton once known as ‘MemeTune’ (the studio of Benge Edwards of Wrangler and John Foxx and The Maths), the self-produced album was engineered & mixed by Chris Hamilton (Squarepusher).  The space itself, once home to Benge’s vast vintage synth collection, felt a natural home for a part electronic, part bass led album.

Kite Base is the outcome of two friends with complementary yet contrasting approaches and a goal to realize a shared passion for the lower end frequencies, melody and beats. The disparate nature of two basses working together is a springboard for the moody yet melodic sound. Effortlessly introducing the intricacy of electronics and vocal harmonies has created a powerful record.

There are many starting points found in origami, of which a “kite base”’ is one. Kite Base has been set up to be as malleable as its origami counterpart; with the folds and creases of ‘Latent Whispers’ now fully formed, they are beginning to sculpt and form anew, once again.
