A SHORT HISTORY
noh1 - aka George Taylor - was a founding member of tv music
partnership 'Fratelli Brothers'. Before that he worked as a
songwriter, performing in the early 90's with his group 'No Dakota',
and collaborated with Boo Hewerdine, Neill and Calum MacColl, Eddi
Reader and James McNally of 'Afro Celt Sound System'. Since 'Fratelli
Brothers' folded, he has continued to score commercial music, but has also
found time to re-establish his song-writing credentials. Recently he
has been collaborating with Hans Joachim Roedelius, and a co-written album
is due for release on Barking Green soon.
George Taylor / noh1 has released a number of albums on Barking Green. The first, entitled simply 'television', was a promotional album showcasing his work in film and television. It included tracks from highly successful BBC series 'A Year at Kew' and Channel 4's 'Worst Jobs in History' with Tony Robinson. This was followed with 2005's 'Bespoke' (BGM00038), Taylor's first release under the 'noh1' name. Mainly instrumental and ambient in tone - it nevertheless included an early version of the Roedelius co-write 'Secret Journey', which producer Jez Coad remixed for the following noh1 album 'Standard Bearer'.This follow-up saw the inclusion of more songs, more commercial production from Coad and, on the accompanying cd 'Standard Bearer Sessions', further exploration of ambient themes.
