Jon Hopkins shares piano composition 'Scene Suspended'

After returning at the end of last year to share his Kelly Lee Owens collaboration 'Luminous Spaces', producer Jon Hopkins is back once again to share something far more intimate.

While usually a progressive electronic artists, this new single 'Scene Suspended' sees him use little more than a piano and violin, yet still maintains that grand and atmospheric tone he has always provided.

Speaking about his latest release, he said, “The main tracks on 'Singularity' were built of hundreds of layers and processes, and took nearly two years to build. Following on from this I’ve been craving a return to simplicity, to acoustic sound and to the instrument I grew up playing. In order to express similar themes but to use as little as possible to achieve this the only sound sources on 'Scene Suspended' are piano and violin."
