Marking a milestone in Purified Records' history, the label presents the twentieth instalment of its sought-after various artist Fragments series. Entering a dreamy soundscape, Palisade and Affektion team up for 'Hurt Enough'. Gliding on a pristine arrangement, the track reaches a lofty dimension with soaring vocals and glistening synths. Flowing into TsuruSwing's 'Okutama', this melodic creation is built up around a stunning piano break, which showcases the composer's ability to fuse classical and contemporary elements. Closing with Krokha's dramatic cut 'Paradigm', the compilation moves into a deeper dimension with growling bass and guiding pads. The Fragments XX artwork features a school of fish, captured by Daniel Nicholson. Schooling fish exhibit a collective behavior where they swim together in coordinated groups, often displaying intricate and synchronized movements. This behavior serves various purposes, including predator avoidance, improved foraging efficiency, and enhanced reproductive success. Schooling helps create a visually confusing and intimidating effect, making it challenging for predators to target individual fish within the group. Communication through visual cues and changes in direction contributes to the cohesion and coordination observed in schooling fish. The Ocean Conservancy is an organization that fights for ocean protection all around the world – the only place fish can call home. Located on the Ningaloo Reef in Western Australia, Daniel Nicholson is one of the globe's most prominent professional underwater photographers. He seeks to share the beauty and magic of the underwater world to inspire conservation and change. Looking to help further protect the ocean?
