“My fondest music making memories have come from collaborating yet I haven’t done nearly enough of it” shares Heap. “There’s a sense of daring to go somewhere new that’s easier to accomplish with the right accomplice. I want to get taken out of my comfort zone time and time again in the making of this album, to discover new edges of my creativity as a musician, recording artist and producer, that I hope will prep me for the next 25 years of making music.

To kick off the news of the album concept, I’m releasing ahead of the album my original version of a new song entitled “The Quiet” alongside a reimagined version of it I commissioned from the fabulous Baths and thirdly partnering with SKIO, launching a quest for the final version of the song that will ultimately end up on my new album.

I’m making the stems available and for any recordings that materialise offering 50% of recording royalties whether on or off the album. For clarity, 100% of the song composition royalties remain with me. I just ask that when people upload their recordings anywhere to please follow the title example “The Quiet reimagined by … “. I can’t wait to listen to what comes through!”
