Pre-Order 07/08/26 - Sood, Arun & Angeline Morrison: Donn/Dubh (Coloured Vinyl LP)

This item is available for pre-order only and will be dispatched on or around its release date (07/08/26)

Donn/Dubh (Black/Brown) pays homage to Sood and Morrison’s shared Hebridean heritage. Sounding at once spiritual yet non-traditional, folk melodies are exploded into fragments then reassembled anew, allowing the artists to explore their complex relationship to musical heritage, tradition, landscape and belonging.

The inspiration behind Donn/Dubh lies in 10th-century Celtic texts in which the direction of winds corresponded to different colours. Inspired by this idea, Sood spent years researching colours in traditional Gaelic song archives, reworking melodies into new compositions and layering drones of traditional Scottish instrumentation with bass-heavy beats, lush synth lines, abrasive guitars and ambient soundscapes brought to life by the forward-thinking production of Alastair Smith.

Morrison’s deeply spiritual vocals grace several tracks as she embraces her practice of “mythopoeic singing”, whereby the spectral presence of marginalised Black and Brown figures from the past are brought to life and invited into the present, as the artists hold commune with their ancestors, of the land and of lineage.
