Jon Hopkins makes his long awaited return with Singularity, his first since the Mercury Prize-nominated 2013 breakthrough, Immunity. Singularity begins and ends on the same note: a universe beginning, expanding, and contracting towards the same infinitesimal point. Singularity explores the dissonance between dystopian urbanity and the green forest.

Music and spirit! It's taken five years, but in 2018 the time has finally come: electro and house icon Jon Hopkins presents his new album "Singularity," the follow-up to 2013's "Immunity."


From raw techno to atmospheric soundscapes, dreamy melodies and piano sounds to psychedelic ambient - Hopkins once again shows his enormous musical spectrum here.


A total of nine tracks await on "Singularity", with which Hopkins communicates his mental states during songwriting and recording.


The British producer, DJ and remixer already revealed exactly how it sounds in March with the first single release "Emerald Rush".


"Singularity" shows what music can express. This journey into the interior of Jon Hopkins should not be missed.


Jon Hopkins makes his long awaited return with Singularity, his first since the Mercury Prize-nominated 2013 breakthrough, Immunity. Singularity begins and ends on the same note: a universe beginning, expanding, and contracting towards the same infinitesimal point. Where Immunity charted the dark alternative reality of an epic night out, Singularity explores the dissonance between dystopian urbanity and the green forest. It's a journey that returns to where it began – from the opening note of foreboding to the final sound of acceptance.


Shaped by his experiences with meditation and trance states, the album flows seamlessly from rugged techno to transcendent choral music, from solo acoustic piano to psychedelic ambient. Its epic musical palette is visceral and emotionally honest: with a destructive opener full of industrial electronics and sonic claustrophobia and a redemptive, pure end on solo piano.


Exploring the connectivity of the mind, sonics and the natural world, Singularity reflects the different psychological states Hopkins experienced while writing and recording. It's a transformative trip of defiance from his initial sense of frustration at the state of the contemporary world to the ultimate conclusion that a true sense of peace and belonging can only come from nature. Singularity is intended to be listened to in one sitting, as a complete body of work.
