Leviathan Whispers is an album of longings, laments, deleriums and drones, savage and sublime. Brass and woodwind instruments sing over and through autumnal netherlands, heralding ancient spirits. There are breaths, hums and bone songs for shadows and flames to dance to.

Tim Hill is an inspirational figure within the UK arts, jazz, noise and improv world. Since the 1980's he's operated as a shapeshitfing maverik, fearlessly exploring Britain's diverse musical traditions, from rough music to industrial folk, free jazz to dub, post-punk to avant-rock, incorporating electronics, hymn, noise and drone. Having worked with pioneering arts company Welfare State International, he's performed inside Stonehenge, on the back of trucks at Notting Hill Carnival, leading giants through the streets of London, Dublin and Galway, at Olympic Torch events, cooked celebratory feasts, written wassail songs, and led humanist funerals.

Tim presents a darker, more contemplative side to his work, featuring tracks created for art installations, outdoor processions, solo performances and personal meditations. Inspired by landscape and the eternal pull of Blake's Albion, baritone, alto and soprano saxophones are mixed with tape loops, synths, recycled live recordings, industrial percussion, woodwind and reeds.

Other sounds are processed by Colin Potter (Nurse With Wound) and drone artist Jonathan Coleclough. The artwork and accompanying videos feature sound sculptures by Michael Fairfax (Royal Society of Sculptors) alongside unsettling visuals by film-maker and junk-alchemist David Young.
