Biography
A studio auteur with a unique grasp of dynamics, Jon Hopkins composes music for the night time mind, body and soul. The Hopkins LPs Immunity, Singularity and Music For Psychedelic Therapy are symphonic explorations of the psyche; musical manifestations of inner space and the physical self. All of these elements combine in his celebrated live performances where Hopkins' understanding of the power of transcendence and the opening of the third eye elevates the dancefloor.
Latest Release
Jon Hopkins Immunity
Album | 6th October 2023
To celebrate the 10-year anniversary of Jon Hopkins’ seminal fourth album, Immunity, a newly remastered version of the record is now available.
A confident, dramatic record defined by an acute sense of physicality and place, Immunity felt and still feels, like the accompaniment to a journey of creativity, a trip inside Hopkins’ mind. It brought together everything he had learnt and experienced already but also paved the way for the evolution of his future records, most recently, 2021’s Music For Psychedelic Therapy.
Immunity was a turning point in Hopkins’ career. On its release in 2013, Immunity announced itself as a powerful, multi-faceted beast, packed with the most aggressively dancefloor-focussed music Hopkins had ever made. However, Immunity was never just about the techno behemoths - of which there were several. Hopkins wanted the album to help people to reach different states of mind. From graceful and mournful piano notes, stirring choral drones, he was always seeking new melodic routes to aid this and his desire to use physical, real-world sounds as the basis for many of the album’s rhythms allowed him to craft one of the most human electronic albums.
