about

Extrapolation Records are proud to present 'Dream Reading', the debut release from Joe Herrick. Comprising of 14 tracks from a vast archive of his material we’ve been listening to for the last 5 years, the album moves from ambient soundscapes to off kilter hip hop and house, all held together by Herrick's individual use of sampling and loops.

Euphoric, psychedelic, paranoid, rugged, claustrophobic all at once; the dream scenarios throughout include a variety of daily work events, journeys to different locations, family matters, sex acts and encounters with other human individuals, animals, and deities.

Boomkat Review:

'Smoked-out, heavy-lidded loops and grooves from Joe Herrick, weaving between Jan Jelinek-styled ersatz ambient and sawn-off boogie slink, with a number of odd eldritch detours

As the title implies, ’Dream Reading’ is a trippy suite of roving offbeats riddled with a strongly oneiric appeal. The 14 tracks are all selected from some five years worth of work, and render a multi-dimensional mosaic of ideas, tiling half-cut nods to new age ambient, Hypnagogic pop and screwed hip hop into a mercurial portrait of the artist’s inner soundscape.

In the album’s most convincingly dreamlike moments, the eyrie ‘Hamzanama’ reminds of Mike Rutledge’s low key classic ‘Riddles of the Sphinx’, and the damp murk of ’Sharrow Night’ recalls DJ Yo-Yo Dieting at his most smudged, but half the fun of this side is the unpredictable track sequencing, which takes an oblique, mazy route to its elusive and playfully surprising conclusions.'
