UK-based composer and visual artist David Jackman began his career in the late 1960s in the experimental group Scratch Orchestra, co‑founded by Cornelius Cardew. He started recording solo work in the late 1970s, mostly on self-released cassettes in very small numbers. In the early 1980s he established his main project, Organum, which eventually evolved into a new version under the name Organum Electronics in 2019. Since 2019 five albums were released by Japanese imprint Siren Records, followed by (so far) four albums on Die Stadt. This is the fourth of seven albums which are scheduled for release on Die Stadt until the end of 2024. Apart from several albums under the Organum Electronics moniker these will also include works under David Jackman’s own name. A subscription to the complete series including an exclusive Bonus album is available directly from Die Stadt.
