Will Gregory Moog Ensemble released a digital deluxe edition of their debut album, Heat Ray: The Archimedes Project: mute.ffm.to/wg...
The deluxe edition - described by Will as “the soundtrack to an imaginary Archimedes biopic” - features insights from the recreational mathematician, comedian and author Matt Parker, best known for his RU-vid series, Standup Maths. The nine pieces written and presented by Parker each introduce a track from the album giving fascinating insights into the life, inventions and legacy of Archimedes, the Greek mathematician who lived and worked in the third century BC.
The album - recorded by the Moog Ensemble on analogue synthesisers, with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales - has been augmented with two bonus tracks, ‘Heavy Logic’ and ‘Parabolic Sleuth’.
