Stellar Drifting

Description

British producer George FitzGerald began releasing melancholic post-dubstep club singles in 2010, appearing on labels like Hotflush and Aus Music. Some of his most melody-rich material was featured on Fading Love and All That Must Be, two full-lengths which reflected various changes in his life, from a breakup and disillusionment with the club scene to a return to London and the birth of his daughter. After forming the duo OTHERLiiNE with Lil Silva and issuing a self-titled debut in 2020, FitzGerald’s third solo album, Stellar Drifting, appeared in 2022. Drawing the title from research about the movement of stars, FitzGerald also incorporated celestial bodies into the music itself, translating telescopic images of stars and planets into oscillations through the usage of techniques such as granular synthesis.
