released January 26, 2024

Produced and mixed by Maps
Mastered by James Edward Armstrong
Source recording by Mat Smith
LIFEFILES design by Neil Coe

The source recording was made early in the morning on 21 April 2022 while walking from my house to my local train station. That walk takes exactly 4’33”.

The pace of my footsteps prompted the tempo of Maps’ response to that recording. From there, ‘LF15 / A 4’33” Walk To Woburn Sands Station’ rapidly evolves into a euphoric, uplifting track in the spirit of his recent album, Counter Melodies (Mute, 2023), filled with the emotional melodies that are a hallmark of Maps’ work.

All proceeds from this release will go to Dementia UK - dementiauk.org

With thanks to Daniel Miller, Roland Brown and John Cage.
