The music is part of the DODGE installation, which can be experienced until 22nd August at Somerset House. For Bumps Per Minute, Meredith has collaborated with BAFTA-winning sound artist Nick Ryan to design a bespoke tracking technology so that every thump, bump and swerve of the 18 dodgems around the track can trigger a separate composition. This results in a kind of ultimate shuffle where high octane music and ideas compete for airtime and each performance is unique. The installation will occur approximately every hour at DODGE through the day/evening. The idea for Bumps Per Minute came about when the composer was thinking about what might be a more pandemic friendly replacement for the ice rink at Somerset House where she has her studio. The idea grew from there and now this summer DODGE is taking over the main courtyard at Somerset House, featuring a full smorgasbord of Yinka Ilori designs, DJs, food, drink and of course, dodgem rides. Today, Meredith announces that she will be releasing a special extended cut of her material via Moshi Moshi out on the 15th July 2021. Bumps Per Minute: 18 Studies for Dodgems will feature full-length individual musical identities of all 18 dodgems – each one a bold and distinct musical track in its own right as well an intro and outro track (voiced by comedian Rob Broderick). The key to both the dodgems themselves and the release is a user ‘driven’ triggering and shuffling of the material. Meredith encourages the listener to ‘take the driving seat’ and jump from one track to another, mirroring the real dodgem ride, shuffling and curating their own listening experience via the virtual interactive dodgems page or their preferred listening platform. Bumps Per Minute: 18 Studies for Dodgems explodes out of the starting gate with Meredith’s uncategorisable sound and signature energy, combining fairground wildness with a healthy dose of the nostalgic electronics of old school gaming. On the composition, Meredith says “I approached writing these 18 tracks like little exercises, making identities that are bold, playful and characterful but without beats, percussion or any acoustic elements and relying on my skills to create melodic and harmonic based energy”. She continues “they’re also less about musical development than my orchestral work or material in my studio albums, these tracks are only themselves and unapologetically so, and that freed me up to unleash some pretty bonkers ideas, knowing it’s about these bold switches – like a sort of musical Whacky Races…” Artist Anna Meredith Genre Leftfield / Experimental Label Moshi Moshi Buying Options 1LP Coloured Vinyl Format 1LP , Coloured Vinyl Condition New Country UK Track Listings START ENGINES BPM 100 BPM 144 BPM 108 BPM 178 BPM 62 BPM 124 BPM 112 BPM 130 BPM 200 BPM 72 BPM 104 BPM 131 BPM 110 BPM 109 BPM 101 BPM 194 BPM 155 BPM 107 STOP ENGINES Share this On Facebook On Twitter Via Email More from Anna Meredith and more from Leftfield / Experimental View Product Quick View Anna Meredith Fibs Rock And Pop | Moshi Moshi | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 4th September 2020 £22.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Anna Meredith Fibs £22.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Moshi Moshi SKU: MOSHILP95X Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 4th September 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Anna Meredith Varmints Rock And Pop | Moshi Moshi | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 2nd October 2020 £18.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Anna Meredith Varmints £18.00 Genre: Rock And Pop Label: Moshi Moshi SKU: MOSHILP67C Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 2nd October 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Cornelius Cardew Thalmann Variations Leftfield / Experimental | Matchless | 1LP Released 7th March 2010 £12.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Cornelius Cardew Thalmann Variations £12.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: Matchless SKU: MR10 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 7th March 2010 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Lambert Lost Tapes Classical | Mercury KX | 1LP Released 10th November 2017 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Lambert Lost Tapes £19.00 Genre: Classical Label: Mercury KX SKU: 4815279 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 10th November 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Thor & Friends 4 Leftfield / Experimental | Joyful Noise Recordings | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 4th September 2020 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Thor & Friends 4 £23.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: Joyful Noise Recordings SKU: JNR307LPC1 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 4th September 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Henry Cow Unrest Leftfield / Experimental | ReR | 180g, 1LP Released 8th December 2017 £19.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Henry Cow Unrest £19.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: ReR SKU: RERVHC2LP Formats: 180g, 1LP Released Date: 8th December 2017 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Inventions Continuous Portrait Leftfield / Experimental | Temporary Residence | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 10th July 2020 £23.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Inventions Continuous Portrait £23.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: Temporary Residence SKU: TRR346LPC1 Formats: 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released Date: 10th July 2020 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Asa-Chang & Junray Jun Ray Song Chang Leftfield / Experimental | Leaf | 1LP, Includes CD Released 29th January 2016 £14.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Asa-Chang & Junray Jun Ray Song Chang £14.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: Leaf SKU: BAY22V Formats: 1LP, Includes CD Released Date: 29th January 2016 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Herva Seez Leftfield / Experimental | Planet Mu | 1LP Released 16th September 2022 £21.00 Back Order View Pre/Back Orders Herva Seez £21.00 Genre: Leftfield / Experimental Label: Planet Mu SKU: ZIQ446 Formats: 1LP Released Date: 16th September 2022 Read More Back Order View Pre/Back Orders View Product Quick View Duster Stratosphere – 25th Anniversary Edition Leftfield / Experimental | Numero Group | 1LP, Coloured Vinyl Released 29th September 2023 £24.00 -
