Far from carrying an anything goes attitude, Dorey’s is an evocative melting pot moulded in an orderly fashion, creating output that keeps categorisation open-ended.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhilst tackling a busy tour schedule over the past 18 months, Skinshape has continued to find time to make music in his studio based in North London. The latest endeavour is titled Chapman’s Pool - named after a bay on the Jurassic coast in Dorset, located walking distance from where Dorey grew up. Chapman’s Pool carries a sense that Skinshape is reconnecting with the sound which formed his musical identity, drawing inspiration from spaghetti westerns, trip-hop, ‘60s+’70s Ethiopian Jazz, '80s South African bubble gum and so on, all while the multiple years of recording, songwriting and production experience are clearly audible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSide 1\u003cbr\u003e1.
