Listen to Jon Hopkins’ new work ‘A Gathering Of The Tribe’ with Vylana
Jon Hopkins has shared his first new music of 2022 – listen to ‘A Gathering Of The Tribe’ below.The track is described as a sonic companion piece to Hopkins’ meditative 2021 album, ‘Music For Psychedelic Therapy’, which came out in November.Speaking about the new piece, which was originally written intending to be a score to an animated short film featuring an excerpt from Charles Eisenstein’s book The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know Is Possible, Hopkins said: “I haven’t done much scoring in the last few years, but occasionally something comes along that I fall in love with and feel like I just have to work on. My friend Aubrey Marcus showed me an early version of this stunning Aldous Massie animation he produced when I was in Austin last September.“The theme, the imagery and the colours all resonated so deeply.
