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 combination of dreamy shoegaze psychedelia with 4/4 dance beats became an immediate success, followed by much acclaimed remix work for Thom Yorke or Popnoname. His second album Yesterday and Today has just been released on Kompakt.

Axel Willner drops his third album as The Field since 2009's 'Yesterday & Today'. His immersive electronics focuses on loops building and falling away, at times more sombre like the spacey 'It's Up There' with tracks like 'Arpeggiated Love' and 'Looping…' that more melodic intricate sound he made his name with.
