After a small number of obscure ambient recordings, Stockholm's Axel Willner joined the Kompakt family in 2005 as The Field with the release of his 12" debut 'Things Keep Falling Down'.

His second album Yesterday and Today has just been released on Kompakt.

I have all the records, and I am listening to them a lot."
