About this product
When we played the music from our last album, No Fixed Point In Space, it felt like we were already pulling away from the free, open-ended approach we had spent fi ve years trying to achieve. One night during the tour at Cafe Oto in London, something clicked. Our live sets started gravitating towards rhythm and hooks.It was clear that the trio - myself, Jim and Jeff - were onto something. And then we met Tara. She and I played together at an improvised music night and, for about 45 seconds during one of the pieces, a new path became clear. So Tara joined the band.The new line-up felt alive and direct. So an approach to songwriting that had become abstract snapped into focus. I think these are the best songs I've written and the best group I've been in. The music and ideas we've always wanted to communicate are alive but we've shifted; moved into a parallel universe.

No Fixed Point In Space, the third full-length album by Jack Cooper's Modern Nature, takes the palette of sound and themes that were honed on 2021's Island Of Noise and launches them into an expansive world of openness and vivid technicolour. It's a music that hasn't been heard before; as melodic as anything Cooper has produced but framed by rhythms and instrumentation that reflect the chaos, unpredictability and colour of the natural world. InchWith this record,Inch Cooper explains, InchI wanted the music to reflect nature beginnings and endings, arrivals and departures, process and chance. I wanted the music and the words to feel like roots, branches, mycelium, the intricacies of a dawn chorus, neurons firing, the unknown. The way you see or hear music in your head is abstract and magic... often more beautiful than what eventually appears on tape. When you sit down with an instrument and begin translating an idea, it quickly conforms. I've tried to develop this music without thinking in terms of set rhythms, time signatures, folk or pop structures, syntax; the devices you associate with the music world which I come from. I wanted to make music that was abstract, free and honest, whilst still being predominantly tonal and recognisably song based. It feels like time to make something that no one has heard before.Inch
Since the demise of his previous band Ultimate Painting, Jack Cooper - under his Modern Nature guise - has never stopped looking ahead, exploring and reaching for something further. Since 2019, he's released an EP, last year's mini album Annual, one full length LP, one 7Inch and three live cassettes - in the process mapping out astonishing new terrain. Constructed over the last 12 months, his beautiful new album, Island Of Noise, presents an obvious new peak in his discography and represents an absolute career highlight.
