FRAMEWORKS: Momentum

Rich, warm compositions bursting with blossoming strings, pulsing bass, and haunting vocals fill the catalogue of Frameworks, Manchester-based performer and producer Matthew James Brewer. Adding his sophomore LP, KINGS, to his previous two EP’s for Loci Records last year, Brewer has built an arsenal of deeply personal songs that move the body and mind. KINGS featured Ninja Tune’s Jono McCleery, who joins fellow UK standout JP Cooper among the high-profile vocalists who have contributed to the Frameworks project across downtempo, organic house, and subtle hip-hop. His debut album, Tides, released in 2015 by First Word Records first thrust the producer into the international spotlight, granting him a following in the United States.

Frameworks has made a splash on the North American festival circuit, performing at Coachella, Electric Forest, Lightning in a Bottle, Camp Bisco, Global Eclipse Gathering, and the 20th anniversary of Shambhala. He’s also toured in Europe alongside Loci Records founder Emancipator. This year, Brewer has been touring the Frameworks live lineup with drummer Cory Eberhard, violinist Jessica Borth, guitarist Gareth Metcalf and bassist Keith Thomas. Taking the Frameworks catalogue to new and evocative heights, the live band brings a depth and focus that demands to be experienced.
