Calibre - Planet Hearth (Signature Records)
Format: 2 x Vinyl LP
Cat No: SIGLP014
The multi-faceted producer and DJ, and one of electronic music’s most respected, Calibre releases ‘Planet Hearth’ an album featuring exclusively new material, and dedicated to a very close friend who passed away the previous year, this is by far the most personal and poignant record he has ever made.
First coined in 2015, the album has taken four years to complete and in his own words ‘part of a slow metamorphosis that I have wanted to do for a long time’. Escaping to Valentia on the West Coast of Ireland, he sought solace away from the grind of modern living to write music and draw inspiration from his surroundings. It was during this time that he experienced great personal loss, which can be felt throughout the record, forming an emotional narrative that will make even the hardest of hearts shed a tear upon listening.
This is an honest and pure record that steps away from Calibre’s drum and bass persona that he’s so synonymous with. A somewhat melancholic and atmospheric piece of work, it still has that signature Calibre sound, attesting to incredible diversity of the man. A true master of his craft, his ability to constantly create and consistently deliver with such honest expression is staggering. A chameleonic creator in the purest form - as a painter, fine artist, multi-instrumentalist, writer and producer - he has a career stretching over two decades with over fifteen albums of varying genres.
