Ben Chatwin is a talented musician known for his unique blend of ambient, electronic, and experimental sounds. Drawing inspiration from artists such as Bersarin Quartett, Greg Haines, and Rafael Anton Irisarri, he has created a distinct musical style that captivates listeners.

With his mesmerizing compositions and intricate soundscapes, *Ben Chatwin* takes listeners on a sonic journey filled with emotion and depth. His music combines delicate melodies with rich textures, creating an immersive experience that transports you to another world.

Whether it's the hauntingly beautiful tracks like "Digital Moss" or the atmospheric landscapes of "Worriedaboutsatan," *Ben Chatwin* showcases his versatility as an artist. His collaborations with other talented performers like Ocoeur and 36 further highlight his ability to push boundaries and create truly unique music.

Village Green is an independent label reshaping the landscape of minimalism, classical and electronic music. Its diverse roster boasts some of the most forward thinking modern composers working in the UK & Europe today. With roots firmly set in the world of soundtrack styled atmospherics, *Village Green* explores the fertile ground where classical and minimalist composition collides with contemporary production.

Feeding strings through an array of modular synthesisers, Ben Chatwin remoulds his recent Staccato Signals album into new microscopic electronic textures. Drone Signals, a companion piece to the original album, is released via Village Green Recordings. With all of the ‘Staccato’ material on hand, the task became dismantling the tracks – stripping them apart to see what was left, letting certain sounds or instruments become the focus, and then rebuilding the arrangements around them. This allowed elements to breathe, yet also to become more static. The less chaotic and more ambient nature of these pieces suggested a related album of versions, a conceptual sibling. Drone Signals might best be understood as the aftermath of Staccato Signals, retaining much that made the latter such a rewarding album – it's mournful beauty, the tense, ambiguous relationship between electronic and acoustic elements, and a delicate if not volatile balance between elegance and intensity. Drone Signals will appeal to fans of the experimental world-building of recording artists and soundtrack composers such as Ben Frost, Hildur Guðnadóttir, Max Richter, Johann Johannsson and Ryuichi Sakamoto.
