The first half, World One: Music, consists of eight instrumental pieces, while the second half, World Two: Songs, features eight vocal songs.\u003cbr\u003eThis concept was partly inspired by the time Midge spent during lockdown listening to instrumental music whilst presenting THE SPACE on Scala Radio. Hearing music that rarely finds a home on mainstream radio, he set about making something without lyrics, where the melodies had to speak for themselves.\u003cbr\u003eThe eight vocal songs which form the second part of the album, came to Midge as the world reopened. A more divided world, in many ways a much harder and less empathetic one. Sharing an atmosphere with the preceding instrumentals, these songs are incredibly sparse and meditative, and whilst they are subtle, with some songs dealing with the frailty of the human condition, underlying many songs reflect Midge's concerns for the discord infecting world today.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMidge will be touring A Man of Two Worlds on a 21 date UK tour in May\/June, Australia\/New Zealand in October, with Festivals and US dates being booked during the summer and Germany in Feb\/March 2027 with more dates being added.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"CHRYSALIS RECORDS","offers":[{"title":"2LP Black Vinyl","offer_id":56804937597306,"sku":"BRR-14105","price":34.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0363\/6517\/2868\/files\/446493d501e75fd5256aa52764a0956e.jpg?v=1776157579","url":"https:\/\/www.boilerroomrecords.co.uk\/products\/midge-ure-a-man-of-two-worlds-vinyl-lp","provider":"Boiler Room Records - 27 High St","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
