Jack Peñate - After You (CD)

Jack Peñate - After You (CD) Jack Peñate announces the release of his third album ØAfter YouÙ. Over a decade in the making, the album was produced in collaboration with Paul Epworth, Inflo and Alex Epton. Former Spankrock member turned producer and jazz drummer Alex Epton came on board and set to bring together 10 yearsÙ worth of work into a cohesive album in XLÙs New York studio, adding in additional programming and production as well as drums and percussion. Paul Epworth, with whom he created ØEverything Is NewÙ, came back in and worked on several tracks. The album doesnÙt just draw on Jack PeñateÙs musical journey of the past ten years, it brings in influences from the music he heard as a child. As a child his brother would play him jungle and hereÙs elements of that too. His dad ran acid house raves - thatÙs in there. But perhaps the most poignant track is ØGeminiÙ. With nothing more than piano, vibraphone and drum beat, the words of PeñateÙs grandfather, the writer and artist Mervyn Peake, are read by his uncle Fabian. If PeñateÙs ambition was to be able to make a sound that sounded like a feeling felt and to be able to master studio production and to be able to have longevity in his career, then itÙs safe to say that with ØAfter YouÙ that ambition has been realised.
