     Andy Mac makes a welcome return to Idle Hands to kick off a new series under the banner - Diving Bird. Named after the avian population off the coast of his native Cornwall, these new productions are the result of a fertile creative period since taking some time out from the low end thrum of Bristol life. With sound sources including field recordings from multiple trips to West Africa, the series is the most pronounced distillation of his pure-hearted passion for dub, that refigures the pioneering work of Tubby, Perry et al in a modern context!
