Leo Chadburn’s latest project draws on a seventeenth‑century English dancing manual, turning its steps into a kinetic sound narrative that references everything from St Vitus’ chorea to the historic Castlemorton rave. The work is presented as a series of short radiophonic episodes rather than a conventional album, and it avoids the repetitive beats and heavy bass typical of dancefloor releases.
The piece features Chadburn’s spoken male narration interacting with the Phaedra Ensemble, creating a dialogue that unfolds across brief, atmospheric sections. As first reported by The Quietus, the composition prioritises texture and movement over club‑ready rhythms, offering a contemplative listening experience for those interested in experimental dance music.
