Taking inspiration from, and paying homage to, Earth’s oceans, Dark Morph II sees the duo using recordings of whales and prawns from the Pacific Ocean, alongside whale-songs recorded with hydrophone microphones, to craft aquatic drone-scapes.

“The exploitation of the oceans, in conjunction with the heavy pollution – from plastic waste to nuclear radio-activity – has to stop, and be replaced by collaborative manners co-operating with all life on or globe,” assert the duo.

Dark Morph II follows the duo’s first album – Dark Morph – released on The Vinyl Factory in 2019.
