Adi Newton is a musician, composer, lyricist, vocalist, writer and fine artist. He is best known for having co-founded Clock DVA in Sheffield, in 1978. Over the ensuing years, the ensemble have encompassed a wide range of genres, including electronica, industrial noise, jazz inflected rock, loops and drones, dance floor grooves, and beyond – with Newton remaining their one constant.

‘Utterly mesmerising.‘ – Trouser Press

‘Affirmative and forward thinking music that nevertheless seems to trigger endless discussion and reinterpretation… impossible to pin down.‘ – The Quietus

Aside from Clock DVA, Newton has created an enormous body of visual artwork, as well as solo recordings, and sonic experiments with The Anti Group. He continues to evolve and confound expectations, proving a strong influence on successive generations. Heaven’s Lathe is honoured to release this exclusive 7” single, comprising two brand new solo compositions . The cover art features an original painting from a triptych of head studies by Newton.
