For a year, the pair sought to create and publish music and film episodically, which saw them collaborate with a collection of eclectic figures, ranging from techno bruiser Ø [Phase] to Japanese noise band Melt-Banana and Guardian columnist Aditya Chakrabortty.

'DRIFT Series 1' collects the entire body of work recorded during this period via a box set, which contains 7 CDs, a Blu-ray and an exclusive, 80-page book.

The music will also be available as a CD and LP sampler — which 'guides the listener straight through the centre of the project' — and via streaming services.

You can pre-order both the box set and the sampler here.
