Castles in Space

Gordon Chapman-Fox was born in the 1970s and spent his childhood re-enacting Star Wars to the sounds of Jean-Michel Jarre against the backdrop of the last gasp of the space-race. Gordon has been making electronic music since 2003 under various names and labels. Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan is his latest project.

Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan has seen four albums released to critical and popular acclaim under the much respected Castles In Space imprint.

As well as a decline in the community centres and services, the past 50 years have also been matched with a decline in community, and shared experience. Mrs Thatcher’s statement that “there is no such thing as society” was ridiculed at the time, but successive Tory governments have taken this as a mission statement and aimed to remove as much support and communality from the country as possible, and left everyone to fend for themselves.

The album artwork features photographs from the archive of the architect Peter Garvin, and kindly provided by his son Richard Garvin. The photographs show Peter’s work on the Castlefield Community Centre, a sleek modernist structure clad in white ceramic tiles.2023’s The Nation’s Most Central Location became Castles In Space’s biggest ever release, selling out over the course of a weekend, and charting at #6 in the UK Official Independent Albums Chart. It’s critical success matched its record sales, with it topping Electronic Sound magazine’s Albums of the Year, making it to #13 in Rough Trade’s AotY list, and making it to similar lists for Bleep and Norman Records.
