Fleet

• Track Listing

Fleet is the 7th live album by the duo Arc - DiN label boss Ian Boddy and Mark Shreeve. This mix of live electronics underpinned by huge slabs of analogue sequencing was recorded at the E-Scape Electronic Music Festival in the UK in May 2017. The seven tracks, complete with enthusiastic audience ambiance, spans almost 78 minutes for the next best thing to actually being there! What is most evident on this Arc album are the richly harmonic themes, notably in the opening track which builds and grows through a series of gorgeous melodies to it's climax. "Crux" opens with a spooky ambient section before ramping up to a live sequencer fest that lovers of Berlin School electronica will lap up. The final piece, "Howl", starts with a whisper but finishes up as a real sledgehammer that will surely become a favorite for Arc aficionados.
