about

There’s no one who does it quite like Laurence Guy. Here he returns with an uplifting house cut that deftly manipulates samples in a 4-track exploration of friendship, imposter syndrome, and life’s many other roller coasters.

It was the father of long-time pal and confidant J Peacock whose record collection provided the intricate tapestry of samples that forms ‘Can’t Find Her’. It’s a story of losing yourself, and regaining your purpose by indulging in the unifying potential of creating music collaboratively. The theme of cross-reference is carried through to ‘Extremely Present or Present in The Extreme’ and ‘You Do Your Best to Hide The Good Parts of Yourself’. The first sees a rhythmic shift with shuffly triplet drums that back an old Folk record sample, whilst the title track sees Guy repurpose old vinyl gems to meditate on the universal experience of attempting to conceal our anxieties from others. Finally, ‘Waiting For Love’ takes a trip down memory lane. Conceived in 2015, it demonstrates Guy’s steadfast passion for constructing immersive, enchanted worlds. Over the course of Guy’s seven-year career, these worlds have been visited over 52 million times via Spotify alone. As his latest release will confirm, you’d be foolish not to do the same.
