Limited Offer James Elkington: Me Neither (Vinyl 2xLP) | Freebird Records

Me Neither is a 29 track double album of instrumental guitar music. While juggling a number of other projects James Elkington began writing “music for which there was no purpose.” It became a new way of working for him – waking up each morning and improvising and recording the first thing that came into his head. “The only rules I gave myself were that I should make most of the sounds with a guitar, changing the speed or processing the recordings afterwards to get the effect I was looking for.”

Before long he had an album’s worth of material. About mid-way through the second album Elkington had a liberating thought: he was making his own version of library music “if you’re writing library music, you don’t have to know what it’s for – that can be someone else’s job”.
