SOCIETY'S 'relentless drive for success' is the inspiration behind composer and multi-instrumentalist Adam Wilkinson's latest offering.

Having spent years collecting a variety of 'alternative instruments' - from children's toys to pots and pans - the sound engineer has released a range of ambient and electronic tracks, which have featured on nature documentaries, adverts, short films and charity album Touched.

In March 2014 Adam - better known as Quiet Noise - was Bethan Elfyn’s BBC Introducing act of the week.

And Radio Wales’ Adam Walton calls his sound “evocative” and says he “would like to live inside Quiet Noise’s music.”

His last album ‘Audible Life’ was released on Audiobulb in February 2015, and was described by Louder Than War as “an album that creeps inside the mind and lingers long after listening” while Brainstormimprov.com concluded “there is definitely a master at work.”

His new records, Music - Building - Music, is the story of a hard day's work.

Percussive sound effects reference Adam's experience in labouring and carpentry.

While rhythms champion teams of hard working hands, the melodic arrangements deliver the emotional experience of a long shift - triumph, failure, empowerment and exhaustion.

Opening with the journey to work, the album pushes on before clocking off and going home to celebrate.

To hear Adam's work, search Quiet Noise on Facebook. The album is released on exploratory music label Audiobulb April 6.
