“I had to learn to get out of my own way,” says Matthew James Brewer, the British songwriter, producer, and multi-instrumentalist better known as Frameworks. “Instead of going out there chasing after songs, I had to learn to sit still and be present enough to let them come to me.”
Manchester-bred electronic musician Frameworks is learning to live in the moment.
Over the past decade, the emotive producer has endeared himself to audiences through his thoughtful, evocative compositions, leading to performances at festivals such as Coachella, Electric Forest, Lightning In A Bottle, Camp Bisco, and Shambhala, collaborations with Island Records staple JP Cooper and Ninja Tune’s Jono McCleery, and a European tour support slot with Emancipator.
To align with his current musical and philosophical mentality, Frameworks is moving away from the downtempo, nostalgic stylings of his past work into an electronica-fueled sound that emphasizes the need for enjoying the present.
Now, Frameworks releases ‘NO TIME’, an immersive, club-ready track whose sense of motion and pace provides a circuitous, forward-moving listening experience. Written and recorded in the countryside – away from the bustle and lights of city living – the track is a reflection on the need to slow down, stop rushing, and cherish life’s moments.
