Treadwater Fury by Poppy H

Treadwater Fury was set to be a very different record before a close relative the artist looked up to died in Autumn 2024.
This turned him and the album on its head.
What immediately followed, unwittingly, was a period of wild electronic experimentation, improvisation and noise – some of which still haunts corners of the eventual release, some that might rear its ugly head at a later date.
But, as H worked through feelings, he began to retreat into a more organic, acoustic space – speaking to a simpler, but no less darkened, period of family life – and no small amount of guilt for having been so distant emotionally and geographically for so long.
After several solitary months battling himself, the music and its direction, what remained – and what you can hear today – is a collection of tracks bound by a moment in time honouring entire lifetimes.

Poppy H is an experimental artist, originally from east London and active since 2023, whose sole recording and mixing device is a smartphone – using the in-built mic to capture improvisations, compositions and field recordings.
