Composer and sound designer Barnes recorded Bolted over a year in his Liverpool studio, blending hardware, software, and tape to create a tightly wound, urgent sound. Featuring personal samples and an 11-track journey that's both muscular and haunting, the album marks a darker, more focused evolution from his 2017 Compassion. Recommended for fans of Aphex Twin, Björk, and Burial.
