' '
,: After a long hiatus, Hyetal comes of age as a dance-pop artist :,
: in the mould of Jam City with æYouth & PowerÆ, incorporating :
:' synths and songwriting by Gwilym Gold and post production by ':
,: James Ginzburg (Emptyset). :,
: :
:' "Coming together over three years since his critically ':
,: acclaimed last album, Hyetal completes his transformation from :,
: off-kilter dance music producer to futurist pop visionary on :
:' Youth & Power. 'Previously my approach to writing music was ':
,: very rooted in escapism,' says David Corney aka Hyetal. 'I began :,
: experiencing a sense of detachment in my life which led me to :
:' question how healthy this approach was. I wanted music to help ':
,: me feel connected again.' Wrenching his music free from the :,
: 'confines of computer grids' and pushing melody to the :
:' forefront, Youth & Power's texturally rich, psychedelic palette ':
,: is littered with live played synths, electric guitars, drum :,
: machines, processed noise and 'some under-loved 70s home :
:' keyboards' recorded at Hyetal's South London home studio. ':
,: :,
: 'I'd describe it as experimental pop music,' says Hyetal. 'the :
:' sound is in part a return to music I was listening to as a kid, ':
,: more song- and instrument-based.' Youth & Power is Hyetal's :,
: debut as a vocalist, also scrapping samples in favour of live :
:' instrumentation and hook-laden songwriting laced with myriad ':
,: influences. 'I took some time out to teach myself how to sing :,
: using an app on my phone. At first I found my vocals worked best :
:' for me when there was some distance from the natural sound of ':
,: my voice so everything was abstracted through a few different :,
: processes.' he explains, 'As I became more comfortable singing I :
:' decided I wanted to contrast this approach and use some natural ':
,: sounding vocals that embraced the imperfections'. The album :,
: strikes a balance between robotic Kraftwerkian simplicity and :
:' soulful organic pop, contrasting the various pitch-shifting and ':
,: abstracting vocal effects with sharply concise lyrics. :,
: Semblances of Hyetal's origins in Bristol's early dubstep :
:' movement are still present too, deep inside the album's ':
,: meticulous rhythm beds. Elsewhere chiming retro keyboard notes :,
: and drum machine beats at times recall the likes of Yellow Magic :
:' Orchestra contrasting against waves of guitars and noise which ':
,: bring to mind the influence of Bauhaus and other post punk :,
: experimentalists. :
:' ':
,: Written as a form of catharsis for Hyetal in his search to :,
: return his music from detachment, Youth & Power seeps a sense of :
:' hope. 'I found from a distance the most immediate workings of ':
,: humanity can appear extremely brutal', says Hyetal, 'but when :,
: looking through this lens you miss the beauty that happens in :
:' the moment.' ':
