SOM

SOM is a conceptual album forged from the industrial pulse of London—a city where history reverberates through steel, concrete, and motion. Drawing inspiration from the rhythmic clatter of Underground trains, the metallic groan of railway arches, the hum of power infrastructure, and the distant echoes of the Royal Docks, the work transforms the city's everyday soundscape into an immersive sonic narrative. Through layers of field recordings, processed textures, and atmospheric composition, SOM explores the tension between industry and memory, tracing the hidden music embedded within London's machinery and architecture. The album invites listeners to experience the city not as a landscape of landmarks, but as a living instrument whose mechanical rhythms reveal stories of labour, movement, and continual reinvention. Inspired by the distinctive sound world of the London Underground and the city's industrial environments, SOM reimagines urban noise as a form of contemporary orchestration.
