about

Numerology is the third of a series of six pieces produced by Naomi Perera & Adam Langley with the assistance of the Leeds Conservatoire 2021 Graduate Fund.

Originally developed for the duo’s appearance at the 2020 edition of the Sounds Like This festival, Numerology is an outlier amongst their works as it features a prominent vocal.

The piece was initially conceived as an exercise in polymetre. Opening with a simple electronic pulse, the rhythmic complexity is gradually increased layer by layer, with Naomi’s melodic lines dancing around the pulses while electronic processing augments the flute’s sound.

To match the evocative sound of the flute and electronics, the lyrics focus on numerology – the belief in the mystical relationship between numbers and destiny – with Naomi giving an impassioned vocal performance. The vocals alternate with bursts of distorted flute and electronic noise as the piece builds towards its conclusion.
