Listen to Lawrence Hart’s euphoric cut ‘Above All Else’ – out now on SSEM Records

Lawrence Hart launches his new label SSEM Records with his second solo EP ‘Small-Scale Experimental Machine’, celebrating his incredible connection to the birth of modern computing and electronic music, through his Grandfather, Geoff Tootill.

EP focus track ‘Above All Else’ has the wistful yet high energy sound of pitch-shifted vocals, intensified by a heartfelt lyrical voiceover to lift hearts, hands and roofs alike. ‘The song is a sincere take on what love really is, ‘the absence of separation’ between two people’ Lawrence says. ‘There’s an innocence to love and I tried to capture that with the production. It’s rare that I start my songs on the ‘Major I chord’, but here I felt that it encapsulated the sentiment perfectly. For me the song is summed up by a Rumi quote – ‘Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.’

The EP, like the new imprint, is named  after the world’s first software-using computer, built in 1948 by Geoff Tootill, F.C. Williams and Tom Kilburn. Geoff gave Hart his first ever musical instrument, his 1940s trumpet, setting him on a path combining organic, emotive instrumentation and technically progressive electronic production.
