Harmonic Divergence (RSD24 EDITION)

SW Records

    THIS IS A RECORD STORE DAY 2024 EXCLUSIVE AND WILL BE AVAILABLE INSTORE ON SATURDAY APRIL 20TH ON A FIRST COME FIRST SERVED BASIS, LIMITED TO ONE PER PERSON.

    IF THERE ARE ANY REMAINING COPIES THEY WILL BE MADE AVAILABLE ONLINE AT 8PM ON MONDAY APRIL 22ND.

    Harmonic Divergence is the perfect companion piece to Steven Wilsonís highly acclaimed 2023 album The Harmony Codex. On this very limited nine track release, music from the original album has been remixed and reimagined by Wilson, alongside longtime bandmates/collaborators and like-minded bands and producers. The result is a warped mirror image of the original, where oblique electronics are replaced by spidery gothic guitar riffs and cyclical piano tracks are mutated and transformed for the dance floor.

    Inclination - Ewan Pearson Remix

    SW Records

      Ewan Pearson turns Steven Wilson's otherworldly 'Inclination' into a cosmic disco odyssey perfectly made for dancing in outer space. Built on top of a precision kick drum, handclaps and cowbell rhythm, Ewan's mix adds swirls of piano, cascading synth lines and a haunting vocal before the whole thing ups and soars off into the cosmos for a dubbed out four minute coda.

      The original version of ‘Inclination’ appears on Steven Wilson’s highly acclaimed new album, ‘The Harmony Codex’ which entered the UK album charts at #4. Triumphant reviews herald the album as “Sonically immaculate” (Uncut), “Celestial” (Clash), “a beguiling, melancholic, oblique epic” (Metro), “a sonic journey where you never quite know what's around the corner” (Mojo).

      Inclination Ewan Pearson Remix is available as a limited edition 12” featuring vocal and instrumental remixes.

      The Harmony Codex

      SW Records

        The Harmony Codex - the seventh album by Steven Wilson - takes you on a trip. A genre-spanning collection that opens up like a musical puzzle box, it presents a series of endlessly beautiful vistas that roll out and shift in front of you. Arguably the best album Wilson has made during a career that’s spanned more than three decades both as a band leader and as a solo artist, it represents the apotheosis of a life spent fully absorbed in music.

        While The Harmony Codex nods to records from Steven Wilson’s recent past, at times echoing the paranoid rumble of 2008’s Insurgentes, the crystalline electronics of 2021’s The Future Bites and the expansive storytelling of 2013’s The Raven That Refused To Sing (and Other Stories), here he has managed to create something entirely unique, a record that exists outside of the notion of genre. And although The Harmony Codex is a record made with spatial audio in mind, it’s not one that needs an elaborate sound system to lift you out of body - two speakers and an open mind will do just fine.

        Steven Wilson is a singular talent, an artist/producer, his last album - 2021’s The Future Bites - charted at No 4 in the UK and was nominated for 2 Grammys. He is the founding member of Porcupine Tree, whose last album (2022’s Closure/Continuation) charted at No 2. Steven has also received multiple Grammy nominations for his spatial audio work, having recently remixed artists such as Chic, King Crimson, ABC, Roxy Music, A Ha, Suede, Tears for Fears and Guns N’ Roses. 


        STAFF COMMENTS

        Barry says: As a massive fan of Porcupine Tree, it's comforting to still be able to hear the chord progressions and vocal range that Wilson displayed for the band transplanted into his solo work. These pieces eschew the obvious drug-adjacent trips of those early works and to an extent the gothic leaning hints in his early albums, while still retaining his mastery of production and unique sound.
