Markus Wormstorm presents his second solo album, Figure In Field, a work characterized by an electrifying urban combination play with African voices, percussion, and classical instruments. Wormstorm loves slow-motion grooves with the attitude of Cape Town's typical hip hop intensity. Figure In Field is the soundtrack to an imaginary African sci-fi movie. In it Wormstorm experiments with downtempo pulses, Bernard Herrmann-style compositions, singing using click consonants, anime sampling, and Xhosa rapping. Wormstorm combines his passion for the culture of South Africa with his expertise in electronic music and classical composition, leading the listener simultaneously into both his fantasy world and the reality of modern South Africa.
