Entitled <em>Typewritten<\/em>, the album was &#8220;all performed, not programmed&#8221; by Calvert and a bunch of collaborators across several locations in Europe. Calvert had this to say about it:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u201cWith both Typewritten and Three Trapped Tigers, the focus is on sound and the influence of electronic music on traditional instruments. Especially with all the percussive elements, here we asked what typically \u2018electronic\u2019 sounds can we recreate acoustically? Ultimately I wanted to find a sound distinct from what people typically imagine when the word \u2018acoustic\u2019 is mentioned, whether that is a jazz quartet, string quartet, a folk singer or various \u2018world\u2019 styles. Even where any of those might be an influence, like on S Waltz, which is almost chamber jazz, or Nothing to Envy, which has classical elements, I wanted to bring a freshness to them with some electronic-inspired touches, like imitating delay effects or making the tuned percussion sound like it had been chopped up in post-production.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Typewritten<\/em> arrives on September 7th trough <a href=\"http:\/\/truantrecordings.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Truant<\/a> and we can already hear the stunning first single &#8216;12051&#8217;.
