- Description: After a run of critically-acclaimed singles and EPs, British producer Michael Greene, aka Fort Romeau, returns to the full-length with Beings of Light, the long-awaited follow-up to 2015's Insides and his second LP on Ghostly International. While a prolific DJ who orients many of his productions for the dancefloor, Greene still sees the album as the ultimate statement of intent, Incha space to stretch out, to speak in full paragraphs rather than stunted sentences.Inch He has explored several stylistic fragments in recent years (including the summer 2018 anthem InchPablo,Inch hailed a Best New Track by Pitchfork), but when faced with the extended pause to the dance community in 2020, Greene felt compelled to focus on a larger body of work.

Is it honest?Inch He came out the other end with Beings of Light, an expressive collection traversing rainy day ambient, moonlit disco, and dream-like techno in pursuit of the power found within our subconscious.Like previous Fort Romeau records, Greene's foundational inspiration for Beings of Light is imagery. Specifically a work by Steven Arnold, a Dalí protégé known for constructing otherworldly, tableau vivant set designs from found objects until his death in 1994 amid the AIDS crisis. Arnold's 1984 photograph Power of Grace (featured as the album art and lending a title to one of it's tracks) spoke to Greene immediately InchIt's transcendent in the most potent and direct manner, imagination untethered by material, elegance without riches.
