Release Note:

Pioneering microhouse producer and electronic conceptualist Matthew Herbert is here to stuff food in both your face and your ears. Organized in chronological order, from birth to butcher, his latest found-sound experiment is built around the life cycle of a farm pig. The album becomes more conventionally musical as it unfurls — from field recording to paranoid sample symphony to acoustic dirge. Through death, song is born; through song, life endures. PETA is already protesting, but they're missing the point. Herbert shows uncommon sensitivity toward this animal raised for slaughter. He's immortalized it in sound. Typically, fate is far crueler. ...

Matthew Herbert is ready to unveil his eagerly awaited One Pig: an album made from recordings taken during the birth, life, butchery and consumption of a single pig, reared for meat at a farm in England.

Some three years in the making, it's the final part in the artist's One trilogy, which began with unadorned singer/songwriter album One One, and continued with One Club, which was composed entirely from field recordings made at the Robert-Johnson techno club in Frankfurt.

The album "aims to listen in on a single farm animal's life in the context of an otherwise-anonymous food chain." Despite his good intentions, PETA last year accused Herbert of trying to make entertainment out of animal cruelty, and there is currently a Facebook campaign attempting to prevent One Pig's release.

Assuming it's not met with any more serious obstruction, One Pig will be issued through Herbert's own Accidental Records on October 10. A live version will be premiered in September at the Royal Opera House, as part of Mike Figgis's Just Tell The Truth festival, and there will be a "full album launch" in early October as well.
