★★★★★ - "A tour de force... this is music that agitates the heart just as much as the intellect" - BBC Music Magazine
★★★★ - "Wildly imaginative" - The Guardian

NMC is proud to release Reality Eaters, the debut album by “gigantically imaginative” (BBC Radio 3) composer Robert Laidlow. Bringing together three major works, the album explores “latent spaces”: hidden fields of possibility that underpin everything from artificial intelligence to the physical universe. Written between 2018 and 2022, the music reflects a formative period in Laidlow’s career, shaped by his doctoral research and collaborations with leading UK ensembles.
