Producer and multi-instrumentalist Leifur James is set to release his debut album A Louder Silence on 5th October 2018 through Late Night Tales artist label Night Time Stories. A Louder Silence is threaded by nuanced electronic instrumentals with influences of jazz and blues. Rich, soulful vocals and piano are used sparingly; making way for cascades of dubby synths, ambience and moody jazz breaks. Released in 2017, debut single Time was described as the most exciting music in a decade by BBC Radio 6 Music DJ Guy Garvey. XLR8R has written of his uncanny ability to deliver emotional cuts, Stamp The Wax called him an exciting prospect and a live session for Gilles Peterson's Worldwide FM heard tracks from the album given their first airing.

哥斯大黎加的舊港有壯觀的海灘、適合衝浪的強勁海浪，John Carroll Kirby 來到這裡，取樣清晨鳥鳴、傍晚落日、以及與當地人的愉快交流，把這些養分放進爵士樂專輯《Blowout》。Kirby 師從貝斯手 John Clayton 學習爵士樂的作曲、編曲，後來將樂器重心轉向鋼琴與合成器，深入研究電子流行樂器的多元可能。他將傳奇爵士音樂人 Quincy Jones 視為楷模，借鑑 Quincy 於 1960 至 70 年代充滿生機的 Funky 風格並融入《Blowout》。

專輯首曲〈Oropendola〉以褐色擬椋鳥命名，輕快的長笛聲及粗厚的貝斯合成器帶領的 bassline，散發著明亮色彩及律動，這是 Kirby 受到舊港當地音樂人的啟發後記錄的明媚舊港記憶。〈Flying Cat〉可以聽到南美洲民俗音樂 Calypso 的影響，加上雷鬼歌曲〈El Gato Volador〉激發靈感而完成。〈Mates〉則是 Kirby 與友人們深入慶典所接收到的狂喜，並由此構想出一曲與夥伴狂歡時的配樂。專輯基調並非維持在快樂的維度，也記錄了少量痛苦，用重複旋律讓人感到暈頭轉向的〈Vertigo〉，投射出 Kirby 坐雲霄飛車後遭受眩暈症之苦。搭配上旅行紀錄片，Kirby 從自然與人文中汲取靈性之光，與一支精簡的樂團完成了這篇生動的舊港日誌。
