Dezeen Music Project: Amorphous Romance by Max Cooper and Tom Hodge
UK producer Max Cooper and classical composer Tom Hodge have teamed up to create this haunting electronica track called Amorphous Romance, taken from part two of the duo's Fragmented Self EP.
Hodge's piano playing is the focus of the track, to which Cooper has added subtle but increasingly intense electronic percussion, which he created from chopped-up samples of the sound of the crowd at a Manchester United football match.
