Asleep Version Album Cover

The London Based electronic musician Jon Hopkins, released a new EP November 11. This name of this extended play single is Asleep Version.

Hopkins picks 4 soundtracks from his latest album Immunity and reworks them with his mind. He also invites two English musician King Creosote and Raphaelle Standell participating the vocal recording for the 1^st and 2^nd soundtrack.

Unlike the album Immunity that is filled with intense tone through most part of the work, Hopkins dismantles the heavy crackle of beats in theses 4 highlight soundtracks. They are Immunity, Form by Firelight, Breath the Air and Open Eye signal.

Listeners would have a different audition experience in Asleep Version. Hopkins uses simple piano chords, pattering percussion, field recordings and vocal elements to reform these 4 pieces of soundtracks.

People could follow the music and fall into deep thoughts. This EP can lead listeners opening their mind and roaming in the sky.
