Andy Jackson - Twelve Half Steps (2023) [Official Digital Download]

The Superb New Studio Album By Grammy Award Winning Pink Floyd Engineer / Co-Producer Andy Jackson. This eagerly awaited follow up to Andy Jackson's acclaimed album 'Signal To Noise' (2014) and '73 Days At Sea' (2016) sees this original musician and producer explore new musical ground to great effect. 'Twelve Half Steps' is a purely instrumental album; a fascinating collection of compositions in modal scales. As one would expect of a musician, engineer and producer of the pedigree of Andy Jackson, this new album is once again nothing short of impressive, both sonically and musically.

Andy explains: “Twelve half steps; Twelve modal scales; Twelve blank sheets of paper with rigid frames. Twelve exercises in style. Twelve rocks turned over, twelve objects underneath, each one half expected, half revealed.
The limitations were opportunities. Start walking in a prescribed direction, get to the corner, see what’s round that. The rigidity of the start creating a freedom of movement once in the landscape, knowing that there are no wrong answers. It’s not a bug, it’s a feature. Each piece was started and finished before the next was considered. Each piece stands on its own, but they are linked as the same steps were traced on again and again. The same shapes but painted with different colours each time.”
