"From The Deep End" includes selected excerpts from recordings taken at four different live shows Andrew played In Toronto, Kingston, Halifax and Montreal between 2002 and 2004. The twenty four untitled tracks combined on this double-disc set are all mixed together to create a complex and organic sonic continuum. Duke's explorations on "From The Deep End" range from classic clicks'n'cuts to dissonant ambiences passing through minimal vocations and subtle variations.
Sparse beats appear each now and then, but most of the rhythm contained in these tracks remains hidden, mostly on a subliminal level, in the intertwining elements that form them. Ghostly voices, microbial factors, unknown chain reactions, abstract atmospheres, lowercase ambushes, vinylized spectrums, creaking noises, sensible frequencies, mental soundscapes, glitch tensions and post-Techno plots: all ingredients in Duke's recipe combine to make "From the Deep End" a nice summa of his musical output (...and of digital music in general...) rather than just a simple live document.
Andrew Duke has been composing, producing, remixing and performing music since 1987, plus scoring and sound-designing for film, television, video, web, theatre and radio. His music is consistently referred to by the media and listeners alike as continuously presenting a unique and distinct sound. In 2003 he was nominated for Album of the Year (Electronica) at the Canadian Independent Music Awards for his "Sprung" album (Bip-Hop, France).
In 2005 two PSA's he scored for the Racism: Stop It! campaign were recognized with national awards. He has been commissioned for 55+ remixes (for artists such as Aaliyah, Pink Floyd, Chicks On Speed, Heavy Meadows, David Kristian, etc.) and has licensed 125+ tracks to compilations. He regularly tours his solo live PA and his jazz/improv group, the Andrew Duke Ensemble. Duke’s sound design and music has been used on TV channels including BBC Channel 4, Discovery Science, CBC, CTV, Outdoor Life Network and Much Music. Based in Halifax (Nova Scotia, Canada) he operates the Cognition Audioworks label and webzine.

| Tiziano Milani - Im Innersten |
Im Innersten is conceived as a continuous flux where "all events coming from a different origin interact with each other so that each of them contains all the others in itself". Intervention is focused on the sound/space relation. |

| Genetic Transmission - Spiral |
Consisting of one long track - about 43 minutes - "Spiral" begins smoothly with a field-recording of wind blowing through a desert alley, but soon turns into a powerful industrial collage. |

| Mirko Uhlig - Supper |
Uhlig's work is up close and personal, as never does he resort to the overblown, amped-up reverb excursions exhibited by so many of today's drone practitioners. A great collection. |

| Logoplasm - Testa piena d'orche |
The shimmering of voices, the careful drone of an organ or the simple plucking of a stringed instrument: this is a great mixture of instruments and field recordings. |
