Marconi Union is a UK electronic band that was formed in the early 2000s by Richard Talbot and Jamie Crossley, who met while working at a record shop in Manchester. Over the years, they have established themselves as pioneers of ambient music, creating mesmerizing soundscapes that captivate listeners.

In 2010, Marconi Union welcomed Duncan Meadows as their permanent live keyboardist, adding another layer of depth to their already immersive performances. With his addition, the band has been able to further push the boundaries of their unique sound.

Known for their ability to create atmospheric and ethereal compositions, Marconi Union draws inspiration from various genres such as drone, post-rock, and experimental music. Their music evokes a sense of tranquility and introspection, transporting listeners to otherworldly realms.

Back In Stock

like their previous albums, 'beautifully falling apart' is inspired by a love of visual concepts. this time, the focus fell on the contrast between the serene beauty of an image and the underlying harsh reality. as they state: "picture the scene: late at night a gang of road workers work under floodlights at the side of the motorway. one uses an angle grinder to cut stone. he is lit from behind and surrounded by a shower of sparks and shadows. in that moment you only see the striking beauty of the image and forget about the hard, dangerous and dirty job he's doing. sometimes, things beautifully fall apart".
