Biophillia

A 11 track leftfield/idm album (50m 11s) — released June 20th 2011 on Geo Records

Biophilia is Gagarins latest full length album. Dids aka Gagarin has previously worked with the likes of Nico and John Cale (Velvet Underground) and is currently an associate member of and regular collaborator with Pere Ubu as well as member of Roshi ft Pars Radio and new outfit Low Bias with Mark B from Rothko. Gagarins music is electronica - with touches of dubstep, ambient, grime and field recordings.

Biophilia continues his obsessive exploration of the interface between pastoral and urban soundworlds. A single from the album has already received great reviews including

" approximates some of the eeriest sounds of dubstep, but it's a very personal take: these two tracks are contemplative, abstracted, maybe even programmatic. There is a feeling of a drama unfolding at its own pace in their dark geometries, something to be unpicked on the repeat listenings which it definitely deserves. (JM)" Artsdesk
