about

The impeccable new album Morning Sci-fi, part recorded in Russia and part recorded at their Swansea based studio in Wales, sees collaborations with Adam Taylor, NYC based DJ/remixer John Creamer, Kirsty Hawkshaw, the legendary Peter Hook (New Order) and The Hermitage String Orchestra, St Petersburg.

Hybrid vowed to explore the unknown and this, their second album, has done just that, eclipsing the original critically acclaimed debut "Wide Angle" and crossed boundaries. The unique new offering, a wonder clash, a crossbreed of beats electronic, rock + raw and a trademark orchestral sound.

"We've been listening to absolutely anything other than dance music," explains Healings. "I suppose that is because dance music is so ingrained into what we do naturally. We've been listening to stuff like The Doves, Radiohead, Soulwax, New Order and lots of jangly indie guitar bands and classical music, particularly the work of Arvo Part and Alexander Gretchaninov."

At the recent Breakspoll International Breakbeat awards, Hybrid proved to be making their mark on the ever growing global breakbeat scene, where they were nominated for five categories. Mike Truman was nominated and walked away with the best producer award 2003.

Having wowed both Miami Winter Music Conference and Fabriclive, with their astonishing new live set up, complete with groundbreaking visuals, Hybrid have introduced two unique talents - Adam Taylor (lead vocal and guitar) and Tim Hutton (bass) with original live member Alex Madge (drums).

The world's best bass player, Peter Hook (New Order), has co-produced and collaborated exclusively with Hybrid, on the two killer tracks "True to Form" and "Higher Than A Skyscraper". Hooky will make his debut stage appearance with Hybrid at selected + exclusive live shows across the country.

about

Hybrid UK

The sweetest musical spots are always found deep between the contrasts. Dark and light, orchestral and digital, dramatic and delicate, raw and polished, sadness and bliss. Searched for by many, discovered by few, conquered by Hybrid; it’s a creative place where any story can be told. From studio to stadiums, dancefloor bangers to symphonic film scores, the clue’s been in their name since day one. ... more

It's hard to pick a favourite track. This is the only album i have so far deemed as "perfect", where every track, even the intro, is just a masterpiece in its own right. From the hard hitting Perturbator's Theme to the emotional title track, its 68 minutes of perfection. 10/10. connivingkhajiit

This soundtrack has pretty much made my entire childhood so I'm excited to hear the vinyl of it! Praying that one day we can hear the third album but no pressure, since everything surrounding it must've been super stressful to deal with. Always looking forward to hear your next work! imande
