Mister Poppy: Jelly

Composer, musician, vocalist and record producer Andrew Poppy's vast portfolio has seen scores for theatre, opera, film, contemporary dance and art installations. His latest project, Jelly, a beautifully challenging and intensely-detailed spoken and sung solo performance, sees him adopt his Mister Poppy persona. Poppy's finely-crafted loops and dense blocks of electronic sound contain a sense of tantalising, enveloping danger. Jelly is accompanied by hyper-visual vocal arrangements reminiscent of a Beat poet's stream of consciousness. Dramatic, dirty and laced with a Lynchian notion of the fixated gaze, Poppy's words alight upon grim notions with microscopic detail.
