Bib10 (Gold Vinyl LP)

No more so is this made apparent with Wilkinson hitting a major milestone, releasing his 10th studio album. Over those ten albums he has gracefully glided between electronica, ambient, folk, pop, indie, funk, soul and just about any other sonic avenue he's decided to turn down. After 2019's Ribbons, an album he describes as "organic and woody sounding" with a "psych folk vibe", for BIB10 he decided early on that he wanted to use more synths, drum machines, and electric guitars. "I wanted this album to sound more polished and slick," he says. "But not 'software perfect'. My influences for studio production mostly come from the 60s, 70s, and 80s where the craft was very different - getting a more polished sound, without ironing the humanity out of it, was part of the ethos."
