Avenham is inspired by a place John Foxx knew as a young man but it's more than a location. It's less defined, more dispersed and mysterious than that.

As Foxx says of the album which has echoes of his London Overgrown recordings, Drift Music with Harold Budd, Ghost Harmonic and the My Lost City album: "I think the point of music is to remain open enough for everyone to invest with their own experiences and memories, so I'm not going to explain too much.

"Avenham is a real place, that's also as mythical as the gates of Eden. So the music is likewise nebulous and impressionistic - a view from here to a time which occurs in almost everyone's life, when the world becomes a radiant place of infinite mystery and promise - and everything seems possible."
