Mayo’s Stepping on Lego Debut Album Released This Week
Stepping On Lego’s debut album WHEN You Feel Like Screaming will be released next Friday.
This nine-track instrumental album is both ambient and energetic, incorporating elements from the classical, electronic and rock genres.
It was composed, performed and produced by Conor Waters, the man behind Stepping On Lego, and ran for just over two years.
Developed during the Covid-19 pandemic, When You Feel Like Screaming was symptomatic of the new found time that Conor had to reflect on. The result has been a musical journey that ranges from ambient and minimal to lush and energetic.
Stepping On Lego is an alternative artist from Mayo – multi-instrumentalist, composer and producer Conor Waters.
Inspired by artists such as m83, Olafur Arnalds and Hans Zimmer, Conor also draws inspiration from his favorite band as a teenager, Radiohead.
Conor is a classically trained pianist and has been playing the piano since he was seven years old.
After studying medicine at NUI Galway, he worked as a doctor in Dublin.
While at Galway University, he played keyboards with established Irish band Rofi James.
Conor uses a wide variety of synthesizers and sampled orchestras, combining them with acoustic elements such as piano and guitar. He prides himself on producing eclectic and cinematic music.
