Harold Budd, John Foxx and Ruben Garcia trilogy released on vinyl for the first time

Seminal ambient collaborations.

Tranluscence, Drift Music and Nighthawks are being released on limited edition, coloured 3xLP by Demon Music for the first time.

Translucence / Drift Music is a 2003 double studio album from ex-Ultravox frontman John Foxx and ambient composer Harold Budd. Minimalist composer Ruben Garcia joined the duo to feature on their third album Nighthawks.

“Really I’m Harold’s apprentice,” said Foxx. “Along with Satie, he taught me almost everything I know about this kind of music. What you really look for – that instant when something magical and mysterious crystallises in the air.”

“True minimalism is concerned with isolating something dignified and beautiful, presenting it without unnecessary additions, so you can fully appreciate it.”

The triple vinyl package also features artwork by Jonathan Barnbrook, the graphic designer who created the Grammy-winning art for David Bowie’s Blackstar, and Gazelle Twin’s recent VF release Kingdom Come.
