I'd like to thank Scott Fraser for his rework of Nocturne 1, released today on Modern Recordings. His singular voice in electronic music is here to the forefront. A great collaborator and friend. https://craigarmstrong.lnk.to/Nocturnes1ScottFrazerRework

Release day! It's really great that Robert Ames found time to work with me on this remix for Modern Recordings
I have worked with Robert conducting the amazing London Contemporary Orchestra on many projects previously, so
it was so exciting that we found a space to collaborate like this.

I have an update on the As If To Nothing vinyl reissue.

The Dinked Edition sold out within just a few days but you can still get your hands on a record, the cd and the new As If To Nothing T-shirt, lost track 10" and the limited edition signed art print over at http://www.hydrogendukebox.com

I’m so happy today to release this work. It’s called The Lady From The Sea and was originally a commission I wrote for Scottish Opera in 2012. It’s a retelling of Ibsen’s darkly beautiful drama written in 1888. With a libretto from the brilliant writer Zoë Strachan. We recorded with the Scottish Opera, conductor Derek Clark and our amazing cast featuring Rebecca Bottone as Ellida and Mark Milhofer as Dr Wangel. . We could only record this ambitious work with the brilliant support of the National Lottery through Creative Scotland, and the PRS Foundation. I really hope you enjoy this recording.
