Manchester-born poet, writer, and producer Antony Szmierektoday announces his second album, Decoding Birdsong, arriving 21st August via Mushroom Music / Virgin Music Group. Just eighteen months after his critically acclaimed debut, Szmierek returns with a new body of work that signals a clear evolution in both sound and scope. Rooted in his personal touchstones within electronic music, the album pairs expansive, immersive production with his trademark razor-sharp lyricism. Alongside the news, he shares new single ‘Chalk’, an expansive, sawtoothed electro track inspired by the snooker documentary Ronnie O’Sullivan: The Edge of Everything. In his words, “it’s about the idea that chalking a cue makes a marginal difference to the outcome -a metaphor for chaos theory and the win-or-lose nature of the music industry.”
