Lost Colours found a warehouse in Leeds and built a studio in it. That’s where the story begins and where the kaleidoscope of sound took shape, thanks to a lot of high calibre session musicians, brought together by the vision of Martin Allinson and Howard Sessions. “The primary inspiration for the album was every year we get together with a few of our closest friends, set up the studio with a big visualiser screen, the music turned up loud, the lights off and spend the night immersing ourselves to our favourtie albums played in full, it’s really the highlight of my year, every year, fully immersing in a album to be taken on a journey, the concept for Talking In Technicolour was to make a album especially for those moments”

Splashing a range of dreamy influences and vibrancy on their spectacular debut single One Space Left, and even more psychedelic and expansive trip-hop EP peregrination, A Different Life, the duo paint their most ambitious and celebratory canvas yet on the debut album, Talking In Technicolour. The album’s eclectic diversity and arc can be heard on the opening blissed out flight of fantasy 'Organic Adventures', and later with the nine-minute, We’re All One’ finale, which moves to an entirely different beat and pace, turning out an hypnotic, universal uplifting club banger. In between the duo take us on a loved up roller coaster of psychedelics, electronics, horns, strings, sitars, multi continental percussion, multiple vocalists, Phil Spector style wall of sound kick-ins and Brian Eno atmospherics.

Lending either dreamy ethereal lulls or earthy soul to the Lost Colours signature are guest vocalists Rebekah Dobbins (of Nouvelle Vague and The Living Gods Of Haiti fame) on the inviting universality ‘One Space Left’ and the Andreya Triana & Bonobo partnership imbued ‘There’s A Bird In My Heart’, Sara Garvey (DJ, writer and soulstress known for her work with Nightmares on Wax) on the airy stargazing opulent ‘Lying With The Stars’, and fellow Leeds compatriot Sam Thornton on the indie acid-jazz accelerator ‘Different Life’ and trip-hop, explosive feel-good pop anthem ‘Technicolour High’.

Mixed by Bjork’s producer, Damian Taylor, who said it was ”Possibly one of the most colourful records I’ve ever worked on!”, Talking In Technicolour is a summer holiday, distilled into one extraordinary and consciously mind-expanding epic. Most albums are a journey but not many albums take you to a place as beautifully lush and escapist as Lost Colours do.
