Further conversations with Jhauk revealed the depth of his unorthodox approach to electronic music and unearthed a treasure trove of production skills, culminating in the album before you.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"555\" data-end=\"930\"\u003eOscillating between the late-night, moody calm of late-’50s \u003cstrong data-start=\"615\" data-end=\"630\"\u003eMiles Davis\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong data-start=\"632\" data-end=\"649\"\u003eJohn Coltrane\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong data-start=\"654\" data-end=\"668\"\u003eBill Evans\u003c\/strong\u003e, the riotous ’70s instrumentation of \u003cstrong data-start=\"706\" data-end=\"724\"\u003eWeather Report\u003c\/strong\u003e, the modern cool stylings of \u003cstrong data-start=\"754\" data-end=\"773\"\u003eMatthew Halsall\u003c\/strong\u003e and the gritty edges of modern D\u0026amp;B production, it’s scarcely believable that this collection of tracks came from one person working alone in their studio.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"932\" data-end=\"1149\"\u003eWith tempos and time signatures skittering all over the place, Jhauk uses genres as catalysts rather than containers. He finds the interesting stuff in the hinterlands of their structural relationships and tensions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1151\" data-end=\"1204\"\u003eTalking about the album, Jhauk has strong opinions:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1206\" data-end=\"1839\"\u003e“Drum \u0026amp; Bass emerged as club music, and club music comes with its own logic. Specific structures, specific build-ups, a formula that supports that context. That's fair enough, but almost 40 years later, why is 99% of D\u0026amp;B still made the exact same way when 99% of the time it's never heard in a club? The same structure, the same formula, barely any development beyond the core idea. Tracks where you can hear 10 seconds of the drop and know almost beat-for-beat how the next 5 minutes sound. No real musical depth or exploration. People regurgitating the same material ad nauseam but never actually saying anything for themselves.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1841\" data-end=\"2259\"\u003e“This period of composition for me was about taking what I love about D\u0026amp;B, the rhythmic energy and potential for creative freedom it presents, and really stretching it to its limits. Of taking drum \u0026amp; bass as a starting point and seeing where it ends up without an idea of what that destination might be. Most people would probably never call a lot of the results D\u0026amp;B, but that's okay because it was never the point.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2261\" data-end=\"2603\"\u003eDripping with melancholy, euphoria, longing and pure urgency, \u003cem data-start=\"2323\" data-end=\"2358\"\u003eYou Won't Find Your Way From Here\u003c\/em\u003e is unlike anything else you’ll hear this year. The sound of an artist entirely unconcerned with impressing peers or performing on socials; you’re hearing a true musician at work, expressing ideas through the skill of his hands, mind and ears.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2605\" data-end=\"2779\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eThe album’s secrets aren’t revealed with a single play-through, but bear, or even require, multiple listens to expose their layers.
