DIY electronic abstract pop wizard Finlay Shakespeare delivers what may be his final statement with Directions Out Of Town, a 2024 release on the prestigious Editions Mego label. This Bristol-based synth maverick has crafted one of his strongest solo albums, blending complex original synthesis with puristic pop songwriting that draws comparisons to electronic pioneers like Peter Gabriel and Depeche Mode.
The album showcases Shakespeare's ambitious approach to electro-pop, placing intricate synthesized textures at the service of accessible yet sophisticated songwriting. As a potentially farewell offering from this innovative artist, Directions Out Of Town represents both a culmination of his electronic experimentation and a perfect entry point for newcomers to his unique brand of synth-driven pop music.
