A Mountain Of One is the work of two London-based musicians and producers, Zeben Jameson and Mo Morris, A Mountain Of One aren’t interested in making music that is easily listened
to and easily forgotten. Rather, their ambitious and transcendental sonics are designed for ultimate excitement and maximum fulfilment.
And it’s this belief in the restorative properties of music that is etched into every groove, every beat, every vocal turn, every nuance of their mood altering and mood enhancing album. Although Mo and Zeb’s musical paths first crossed a decade ago, it wasn’t until 2006 that A Mountain Of One (“It’s about inner belief and inner strength,” explains Mo, “It’s about empowering you by listening to the music. It sounds a bit wanky, but that’s what it is really”) came into existence. And really it’s a union made in musical heaven, Zeb’s astounding musical talents (a multi-instrumentalist, he’s toured the world with the likes of Oasis, Tricky and The Pretenders) coalescing perfectly with Mo’s inventive widescreen vision.
“I think we were both in a similar headspace,” says Zeb. “We were desperate to get out
of the situation we were in and determined to prove to ourselves that we could be the men we wanted to be.” Harnessing this frustration and this desire to create rich emotional music dripping with experience, the duo immediately set to work on what would be a remarkable opening salvo of EPs.
