Debut album from Tomorrow’s Child

Based in Redruth in the far south west of the UK, Tomorrow’s Child is an experimental electronic music producer exploring new realms via his deeply immersive soundscapes. After suffering the tragic loss of his father and uprooting his life to move across the country, the seismic changes to his situation has had a profound impact on his journey as a producer.

“I grew up in High Wycombe which is around 40 minutes by train from London. In 2015 I moved to Cornwall and shortly after, my Father died. His reassuring presence now absent from my life. The years of processing and adjusting to these life-events has steered the artistic direction of these pieces created between 2018 and 2020,” he shares.

In 2018 he unveiled his sound with his debut single “Atlantis”, which he’s followed up with a further three singles and an alternate mix of his sophomore track “Once Great Western”. Taking inspiration from dystopian sci-fi film and the early electronic dance music of the 90s, his music offers captivating sonic worlds that stretch the imagination.

Now he bring us his latest work with his most ambitious artistic endeavour to date; his debut album titled Beach Ghosts. Featuring nine original tracks that showcase the depth of his sheer creativity and demonstrate his skill as a producer, across Beach Ghosts he invites the listener to venture on a fantastical journey through distant musical landscapes.

Capturing the record’s inspiration and context in the album artwork, the cover depicts an abandoned stone mill that was part of the old quarry at Porthoustock in Cornwall. With the music on Beach Ghosts reflecting the sentiments of the tomb-like structure that holds memories of decaying industry, throughout his debut LP he crafts a kaleidoscopic sound of ethereal sonic textures wrapped up in exquisite sound design to make a truly worthy first full-length release.

Commenting on the album, he shares, “Some tracks contemplate lost industry in Cornwall whilst others explore lost relationships from my past. The referencing of old hymns in the opening and closing tracks relates both to my Father’s role as a Pastor in the Methodist church and the association of Cornish fishermen with the choral singing of such hymns. With Beach Ghosts I sought to use a range of electronic music styles and weave them together into a narrative of melancholy and loss along with uplifting reflective moments.”
