JBXDR announces EP ‘No 2’ and shares ‘Pocketcall’ Single

Share

Electronic producer and experimental drummer JBXDR has given us first play of his brand new single ‘Pocketcall’. It’s set to be released on 23 August via Springstoff.

JBXDR has worked alongside notable producers such as Andy Baldwin (Hidden Orchestra, Belle & Sebastian), Spacepilot, Diana Krall (Order Of Canada) and Terry Lynn Carrington (Giovanni Tommaso Quintet)

JBXDR is the nom de guerre of Jörn Bielfeldt, experimental drummer and innovative live performer. Currently residing in Berlin, Bielfeldt studied jazz drumming at the renowned Berklee College of Music in Boston, Massachusetts. He creates original compositions, on the spot remixes, and performs every element of his sound design live.

Speaking of the track JBXDR explains: “After I had finished my debut record Wave Talk in a very open, but time-limited process based on improvisation and live performances. I wanted to take much more time in the lab this time around. Though I obviously wanted to push my own musicality in the making, I mainly strived to capture rather intimate and private perspectives in the music. ‘Pocketcall’  for example is pretty much a hymn to my love life with my partner. who – by the way, is sampled all over this track.”

‘Pocketcall’ is a plethora of intricate sounds, underpinned by JBXDR’s signature experimental drumming. We simply love JBXDR’s approach to making music. His ability on the drums is second to none and ‘Pocketcall’ once again shows this unique technique.

Grahame Farmer’s love affair with electronic music goes back to the mid-90s when he first began to venture into the UK’s beloved rave culture, finding himself interlaced with some of the country’s most seminal club spaces. A trip to dance music’s anointed holy ground of Ibiza in 1997 then cemented his sense of purpose and laid the foundations for what was to come over the next few decades of his marriage to the music industry.
