Kit Grill announces Spirit (Expanded Edition), an expanded reissue of his 2022 album Spirit, released via his imprint Primary Colours. The new edition includes four previously unheard tracks, written during the same period as the original album. While recently archiving material from his hard drives, Grill rediscovered these pieces and felt they belonged with Spirit, completing the sonic landscape he began to shape in 2020.
Composed entirely using a Mellotron over a four-month period, Spirit captures Grill’s precise, reflective approach to electronic composition—music that balances stillness and movement, intimacy and distance. Across its expanded sequence, the record drifts between hope and grief, memory and suspension, revealing a quiet sense of transformation and renewal.
Available for the first time on CD, Spirit (Expanded Edition) also features photography taken by Kit Grill during a trip to Florence in 2020, when the city was unusually deserted due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The images offer a visual counterpart to the album’s atmosphere of contemplation. Together, the music and imagery form one of Grill’s most considered and resonant works, a luminous study in restraint, space, and feeling.
