James Hinton's use of YouTube is different from yours.
Unlike the aimless drifting of most people online, his digs are fuelled by genuine discovery. Potential, Hinton's newly released album on Domino, uses YouTube-sourced vocal samples as a backbone. Not just any clips though. It's a project that sees The Range as collagist, focusing on the unsung and unsigned heroes of the www's nooks and crannies. Each have their story to tell, and each narrative is duly reimagined with a new soundtrack provided by Hinton.
