Dialect
Dialect is the solo project of British musician and composer Andrew PM Hunt. Embracing an intuitive, collage-like approach to sound, he assembles rich organic textures with evocative electro-acoustic environments, resulting in compositions that are both fragmented and deeply personal. Following a progression of concept-rich releases across almost a decade, Dialect marks a return to RVNG Intl. in 2024 with Atlas of Green, a work of speculative musical poetry melding a patchwork of scavenged relics and bygone hues through the shimmers of a mid-future in flux.
Often inspired by literature as a way of organizing his musical impulses, Hunt is drawn to ideas around circular time, spirituality and ecology. His burgeoning interest in the fantasy writing of Ursula K. Le Guin and Gene Wolfe, as well as the work of Italian philosopher Federico Campagna, has fed into the ever- expanding mythologies and magic of Dialect’s sonic sphere. With his arrival at Atlas of Green in 2024, Dialect elegantly molds unexacting details of memory and mistranslation, as the album imagines a young musician named Green working in a future era, where lost signals and enduring impulses are unearthed from the sediments of technology and time.
He is also a member of acclaimed minimalist ensemble Ex-Easter Island Head (Rocket Recordings).
