JOHN FOXX, HAROLD BUDD & RUBEN GARCIA – NIGHTHAWKS
Released: 2011
Nighthawks is a new instrumental collaboration between John Foxx, Harold Budd and Ruben Garcia, and is packaged alongside a reissue of Foxx's previous work with Budd, Translucence and Drift Music – and it sits absolutely perfectly alongside both.
A dark and cinematic album – almost like a long lost film noir score – Nighthawks is a piano-led ensemble of heavily atmospheric tracks. Amidst the soft, woody notes come gentle breezes and occasional creaks and clatters, breaking up the tranquility with a slight unease.
This package showcases Foxx's finest and most minimal ambient work, linking perfectly with Foxx's ongoing Quiet Man writing, music and imagery.
