Axel Willner aka The Field has been making beautiful music since 2003. Last year, the release of his incredible Cupid’s Head record took old and new fans’ breath away (and was one of my favourite albums of 2013). Never one to grow stagnant, Willner under his new moniker, Hands has announced his new noise project and the result is just as beautiful. I’ve never myself been drawn to noise but I thought if the guy behind The Field is behind it, I’d be an idiot to just shut it down. Maybe you shouldn’t either…

Hands will release his debut LP, The Soul Is Quick on February 10 on Ecstatic, the Kompakt imprint run by Alessio Natalizia and Sam Willis of Walls.
