Jupiter Loop - The Forgetting Tree

British trip-hop and electronica pioneers Jupiter Loop announce the long-awaited re-release of their seminal 1998 debut album, The Forgetting Tree. Originally unveiled by the cult-favourite Splushnay Records, this cornerstone of late-90s underground electronic music has been meticulously re-recorded, re-mixed, and re-mastered to honor its origins while embracing modern sonic clarity.

A resurrection 28 years in the making

Emerging from the misty English hills where folklore meets futuristic soundscapes, Jupiter Loop, known for their brooding downtempo grooves and interstellar electronica, revives The Forgetting Tree as a testament to enduring creativity. The expanded edition introduces the previously unreleased “Full Moon Party”, a pulsating closer that fuses ritualistic rhythms with cosmic euphoria, rounding out an already iconic collection.

Dual worlds of emotion and cosmos

The album splits seamlessly into two evocative realms. On one side, tracks like “Unrequited”, “Reflections of a Vampire”, and “Stokesay Blues” deliver haunting, downtempo meditations on love, loss, and nocturnal longing, song sperfect for late-night reverie in the vein of Massive Attack or Portishead.

Venturing further, “Groom Lake Transmissions”, “Nova Slipstream”, and “An Alliance of Stars” plunge into recurring science fiction themes, where glitchy transmissions, warp-speed synths, and ethereal alliances evoke dystopian dreams and interstellar voyages.

Legacy and availability

“The Forgetting Tree was ahead of its time,” reflects the band. “This reissue lets a new generation discover its magic, polished for today’s ears.” Available now on Bandcamp as high-res digital downloads and booklet, it arrives just in time for winter introspection, with streaming availability soon.

DOWNLOAD includes MP3 320 files and cover and back designs.
