Description

The debut album from WhichDoctorWatson? the avant garde ensemble from Berlin. 14 unique and diverse musical tracks, lyrical and instrumental from the genre-smashing musical think tank  that is WhichDoctorWatson? Ancient and modern technology collide head-on in “circular hymns” , a musical journey to the ends of the earth and beyond. The didgeridoo and the digital sampler, both circular in the nature of their elements combine to reveal a new, unchartered world of music experience. 

The circular hymns project, written by Matthew McGrath, is forged in the fulcrum of darkly  joyous experimentation and exploration of sound and passion but also draws on his 25 years experience in Berlin as an Australian poet, musician and artist. Each song is built around its lyrics, texts are central to much of the music. The instrumental works are set free to explore unknown musical territories. The didgeridoo and the “Jam Man” sampler combine to create unusual but moving music never heard before. Songs of reflection, passion and irreverence. The circular nature of repetition in the didgeridoo, of one the world’s oldest musical instruments and the digital sampler, one of the newest, gives the project its name.
