Jo Johnson’s explorations in sound have ranged from free-form punk with Huggy Bear in the 90s, to underground techno in the 00s, and, for the last decade, deeply expressive electronic minimalism that pays tribute to the many women who pioneered this genre.

“Let Go Your Fear is my second full-length album and probably my most raw and personal release so far. The three tracks on the album are extracts from a long, free improvisation on an early summer’s day and shared with you unedited and unadorned.

“I found the constraints of using a limited sound palette and tools helpful during the session and the level of focus needed for an extended improvisation induced a trance-like state. At the end we’re back where we started but nothing is the same.

“To name the album and track titles, I experimented with automatic writing. Like musical improvisation, automatic writing happens in real time and things move too fast for the ego, rules, conventions and logic to limit the imagination.

“Coming ten years after my first album, Weaving, Let Go Your Fear is an invitation – an instruction to me – to drop the perfectionism and trust in the power of play. Life is short.
