By turns devotional, empowering and nurturing, Jon
Hopkins’ forthcoming ‘RITUAL’ is a 41-minute electronic
symphony built from cavernous subs, hypnotic drumming
and transcendent melodic interplay. Tense, immersive and
ultimately triumphant, it is a culmination of themes
explored throughout his 22-year career and acts as the
kinetic counterpart to 2021’s ‘Music For Psychedelic
Therapy’.
 A single piece unfolding over eight chapters, ‘RITUAL’ is
personified by depth and contrast. Taking ceremony,
spiritual liberation and the hero's journey as inspiration, it
taps into an ancient and primal energy.
 Featuring long-term collaborators Vylana, 7RAYS, Ishq,
Clark, Emma Smith, Daisy Vatalaro and Cherif Hashizume,
‘RITUAL’ came together within the second half of 2023, but
initial seeds were sown in 2022, when Hopkins was
commissioned to compose for the stroboscopic
Dreamachine experience in London. A project that felt
ceremonial from the outset, this shorter piece was the
embryo of ‘RITUAL’, with Hopkins gaining inspiration from
the feeling of intention that is inherent in the Dreamachine
space.
 ‘RITUAL’ is both emotionally and sonically heavy, whilst
retaining a warm, live feel, where the juxtaposition
between softness and intensity forms the core of the
whole. So take time, prepare and immerse in ‘RITUAL’ for
41 minutes of uninterrupted listening: sonic divination of
the most potent form.
 Available to independent retailers on clear double vinyl.
 The LP formats feature artwork etching on Side D and are
presented in a gatefold sleeve with insert and digital
download card.
